hemoccult--to capitalize or not?
Subject: hemoccult--to capitalize or not?

"The examination was hemoccult-negative."  I  remember getting this wrong in training.  Is "hemoccult" capitalized or is it only capitalized if it's used in a brand name situation, like "Hemoccult strips"? I seem to remember it being sort of like kleenex, like "Give me a kleenex" was not capped but "Kleenex tissue" as a brand name was. Or I could just be wrong. Help!!

kynephness/hemoccult consult
Subject: kynephness/hemoccult consult

Could you give a little more information?  Where there any other symptoms relative to the stool character?  Any other positive findings in GI tract (ROS, physical exam or lab)?  Diagnosis?  What was the exact content surrounding the patient's "consult"ing the Hemoccult card?  In a long stretch, an MD might "consult" the Hemoccult card by viewing it directly, but the patient is smearing it with stool and submitting it.

Subject: gram-negative, lactose-negative rods is correct. I found a couple of interesting websites SM

after doing a google search for gram-negative, lactose-negative rods.  Basically testing organisms to see if they ferment lactose (positive) or not (negative).


Also, just FYI, gram-negative is not capitalized.


Probably too late, I'm sure.  Better late than never, I guess.

urine culture for TB?

I first thought he said this: Probably I need to obtain the urine for a kidney culture.  Then when I listened this morning it sounded like TB?  Is this correct? 
Yes, you can test urine for TB. sm
Subject: Yes, you can test urine for TB. sm

Active Tuberculosis
To diagnose TB of the respiratory tract, 3 to 5 sputum specimens are collected first thing in the morning on different days when they are most likely to contain the most mycobacteria. If extrapulmonary TB is suspected, samples are collected based upon where in the body the infection is likely to be. Multiple samples of gastric (stomach) washings/aspirates or urine may be collected and submitted to the laboratory. Sometimes cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), biopsied tissue, or other body fluids are also collected.
