Any ideas on "capping trial" or "cathing trial"?
Subject: Any ideas on "capping trial" or "cathing trial"?

This is a discharge summary from a doc who loves to use her own short forms of words in an account with very little allowed abbreviations.  This is also not my usual account, so I admit to not knowing much out of my "box". Has anyone heard the term "cathing trial" or "capping trial" with regards to respiratory / tracheostomy issues? 


Here is the context:


 "This is a 19-year-old male admitted after suffering a closed head injury while riding his motorcycle in Tennessee... 


<snipped some identifying info>


... Bolus tube feeds were also changed to 275 mL q. 4 hours as well as water boluses 225 mL q. 4 hours, which he did tolerate well.  He was also seen by Respiratory, which did do ***s/l "capping trials" or "cathing trials" *** as tolerated, and he did have an ultrasound of the right upper extremity, to include the shoulder and upper right chest to be ordered, as there was a question of DVT.  However, this did come back as negative."


Any idea on "capping trial" or "cathing trial"? This doctor is famous for being a mumbler, and I am not familiar with this account and either of these terms.  Thanks!
