She's right. Acute on chronic means - they exist as two separate conditions, but the acute is "superimposed" on the chronic.

Hyperplasia is an excess of normal tissue. Specifically, it is the increased cell production in a normal tissue or an organ. Hyperplasia may be a sign of precancerous changes.

Subject: evaluate the function of left kidney
The patient probably needs a pyeloplasty, but has a (s/l drum-step") to evaluate the function of the left kidney. We will go ahead with a renal scan with differential functions just to check the function of that kidney.

Systolic murmur
Subject: Systolic murmur
Hi! I have a rather simple (I hope) question. I have an ESL that always dictates 2/6 systolic murmur **at LLB and apex**. Is LLB correct? Every time she says this I try to look it up again, but it is a little difficult to search. Thanks for any advice on this!

ISH is isolated septal hypertrophy, ASH is asymmetric septal hypertrophy, but I doubt these. Maybe she's making a word out of abbreviations, again doubt. I'd leave a blank and flag it unless someone else has an idea. She may have started to say something like "ischemia" but cut herself off. Doubt if she'd say "murmurish." That wouldn't make any sense. I'll keep thinking about it. Please let us know what you find out.

Hi Ginny,
Actually, both are technically correct. However, for us it depends on client. Some want it with regular numbers and some want the roman numeral. As per the AHDI book of style 2 though "arabic v roman numerals
There is a trend away from the use of roman numerals and toward the use of arabic numerals. A good example of this is in diabetes terminology, where an international expert committee dropped the roman numerals in favor of arabic, noting the danger of a roman numeral II being misread as an arabic number 11. In addition, the AMA Manual of Style states, "Avoid the use of roman numerals except when part of established nomenclature." Copyright (c) 2002 American Association for Medical Transcription"
That being said, I would use 1/6 unless otherwise specified by client or boss.
