This is a patient with IgG s/l coppa emga who is being followed in the leukemia clinic.  I'm thinking coppa may actually be kappa, but I don't have a clue what the emga is!!!  It may sound more like emguf.


Any ideas?

Pain scale in leukemia patients
Subject: Pain scale in leukemia patients

Hi,

Is there a pain scale that is commonly referred to for leukemia patients? I'm doing a clinic note on a patient, and in the PE section, I hear something that sounds like ecot 0 (zero). The first thing that pops into my head is Ficat, but I don't think that's what it would be. I often hear doctors mention the pain scale rating right along with the vital signs, and that's where this is dictated. I'm googling and researching this, but I'm not even sure where to look. Any suggestions?
