Below is the paragraph.  Cannot find s/l Nuez, news? 


The patient would like to get his s/l Nuez system again.  This is basically an erectile dysfunction system that I have prescribed before.  It is an older system, but it worked very well for him.  I would much rather him do that than use an oral drug.  So I wrote him for that today as well. 


Thanks in advance.

Sorry for such a stupid question that I should know, but I am drawing an absolute complete blank on this one (just one of those dementia moments)...In physical exam what system would I list this under.  I'm drawing a blank thinking maybe genitalia, pelvic, rectal or what (none of it looks right to me).  I've been sitting staring at it for about 10 minutes now and have just confused myself.This is the info...


Penis is uncircumcised.  He has a 16-French Foley catheter in place.  There is clear urine output.  Testicles are descended bilaterally.  His prostate is 50 grams and benign.  He has normal sphincter tone.


Thanks much
