Doc dictates: she had an arrhythmia that led to problems with her blood pressure, which led to problems with her mental status, which led to pulmonary problems, which led to being intubated and she was in the ICU for about a week, four of those days intubated. She was then in tele for another week after that.
Would it be telemetry? This is in a letter and I would rather use the whole form of the word. TIA

Subject: planemetry??seems probable. telemetry seems improbable. SM

From the word parts, I imagine that planemetry is measuring the size of the heart and its chambers by taking "still" echos in various planes, then moving the screen markers to define the maximal up-down dimensions and the maximal left-right dimensions.

Toca Monitor??

This is some type of monitor used in labor and delivery, and it sounds like a Toca or Toka monitor.  Cannot find on Google.  Please help with the spelling.  Thx.
Toca monitor
Subject: Toca monitor

It is clearly said as toca monitor.  Would it be correct to transcribe tocamonitor, being all one word?  Meter is not in the word.
Did patient have an event monitor?
Subject: Did patient have an event monitor?

If the dictator is talking about a Holter monitor or an event monitor, then you are correct with transmission. When the patient notices an "event", they press a button and this triggers a transmission report.

"fival" monitor rhythm looks, at best, to be a fine irregular rhythm that could be compatible with fine V. fib.

I'm doing a Review of Records list, and it says Request for AX to refer PT to a "Psych." I was thinking it meant access, but I don't know if that would make sense. Anybody know what AX stands for in this example? Thanks!

short example
Subject: short example

All four patients initially underwent surgical excisions of the pilonidal cyst followed by primary closure of the wound and application of a penrose drain. Pre-operative antibiotic treatment followed by a 10-day post-operative antibiotic course was used. Intra-operative identification of the sinus tract was made using a lacrimal probe and methylene blue injection of the sinus tract opening. Closure of the wound was accomplished with a subcutaneous 3-0 vicryl suture followed by a subcuticular 4-0 vicryl reinforced with 3-0 nylon interrupted suture. All procedures were done as same-day surgery. The drain had been pulled on initial follow-up within seven days on all the patients.

Not sure if those "xxx"  are actually part of your autocorrect format, or just "for display" only.  If I misspell a word even once, I stop right there and fix it.  Anyone else?  Any other tips?

I doubt you could get all that with one keystroke.  I don't have anything with just one key stroke.  You could, however, try something like endx that is 4 strokes, but the whole thing would pop out.  Here is what I do cad = CAD, cadx = coronary artery disease, and so on.
