The doctor spells this out more than once during the report but I've never heard this term before, my medical spellchecker doesn't recognize it, and I can't verify it on Google. Any help would be great!
Following the percutaneous intervention and completion arteriogram of the right external iliac artery, the wires catheters were withdrawn. Please note also just prior to the percutaneous intervention, a full dose of systemic intravenous heparin was given and an ACT was maintained above 200. In addition the short 5 French sheath was changed out over a Magic Torque wire to a long 6 French "raabe" sheath. Following the intervention, the long sheath was then exchanged over the same wire to a short 6 French sheath.

Does this make sense to anyone as part of Physical examination under Neck: ..demonstrates full range of motion of his neck without pain or "sheath line" pain to palpation? This definitely sounds like "sheath line" pain to me. Is there anything I'm missing that would sound like this??

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!
P.S. If it's obvious, bear with me, I'm a newbie still. LOL
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.

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.

I am short on time to do a thorough search here.
What I need are links to cancer terminology. Does any onc specialist have a favorite site you could post for me? Mostly looking for drugs and combination therapies, their abbreviations.
Thank you VERY MUCH in advance if you could help me out.
I changed computers since doing specialized cancer and lost my links.
