KOH scraping
Subject: KOH scraping

The skin lesion KOH exam is a test to diagnose a fungal infection of the skin.

How the Test is Performed Return to top

The health care provider scrapes the lesion off your skin, using a blunt edge such as the edge of a microscope slide. The scrapings from the skin lesion are placed in liquid containing potassium hydroxide (KOH) and examined under the microscope. KOH destroys all non-fungal cells, which makes it easier to see if there is any fungus present.

I have never heard of anything like that before associated with Achilles tendinitis and I have been typing ortho for years, but you never know, there's always things we don't know and are learning!

Sometimes I'll do variations on google.  For example, kom instead of com and things like that.  The first one (Keppra) I found on a drug site, but I couldn't find the second one.  Sorry!  Have a great day!!

love the *colon fetish* thing. I have a doc that would have me putting commas after every other word. I ignore them, but just because he says them bothers me. I have no verbatim accounts either and I think it would drive me bananas if I did! But then, I may get more lines if I put in everything the doc says and the way he says it... lol. I hope you get the proper response from your QA! Have a good rest of the weekend...lobstering! (just kidding).

I do believe this is what he meant, but he was definitely saying mescaline and I couldn't put tha
Subject: I do believe this is what he meant, but he was definitely saying mescaline and I couldn't put that

I finally put a message to QA that I thought it was meant to be mesalamine. I'll leave it up to them.

I hated to send to QA but what are you supposed to do when the doctor is very clearly dictating something and you know it isn't correct? I was afraid if the office listened to the blank, they would report me back to the MTSO as leaving a blank that they clearly heard.

Oh well... Again, thanks all. I really do appreciate the help.
