Looking for what sounds like "lone wolf atrial fibrillation" or maybe "lone Wolff"? I can document "lone atrial fibrillation" but not with the "wolf" or "Wolff."
Thanks.

I only got help for 2 reports, and the people that helped me wanted to help me.
No one was forced and I greatly appreciate their help. I just needed help in some areas that I was having some trouble in that is all.

I am new to op reports and looking for any good reference sites to refer to when needing help. My ops mostly consist of General surgery, orthopedic, ENT, ophthalmology, gyn and plastic surgery.
Any guidance would be appreciated. I have a M&S Equipment words book and an ortho book. Would like some good websites.
Thanks in advance

The area in which you most need help is in how to decide what is ethical. The moderator herself does not allow such reports to be posted here. You should have known better. Now you do.

help new to ortho reports

Can a person have full finger flexion at the volar wrist?
This is just a statement made in the Objective portion of the report. She is stating he has full dorsiflexion, palmar flexion and radial and ulnar deviation of the wrist. THen goes on to say "finger flexion at the volar wrist irriation with clicking"
This is not a verbatim account and she is somewhat scatterbrained sometimes so you have to fill in the blanks at times.
Tenses in reports
Do the majority of y'all change tenses when the docs dictate them incorrectly? Normally I'm inclined to, but there are times when I question it. Of course, my pet peeve is dictating a surgery that already happened, yet everything is present tense!
In this case, here's what I'm questioning:
The patient was evaluated previously, and a left inguinal hernia is reducible.
Thanks in advance!

Question to QA about spacing in reports
Subject: Question to QA about spacing in reports
Have to change from 2 spaces after a period to 1 space. If you have only one space after periods in sentences, is it okay to leave 2 spaces after colons? The reason I ask is that some of my expanders have a lot of expansions (like Neck: Supple) that have 2 spaces after the colon and need to know if I have to change them all or can I leave them be?
Any advice is much appreciated!

Subject: For future reference, have reports similar to this quite often. I do transcribe them verbatim, this way there is no finger pointing on what we as transcriptionists take as a "liberty" in interpretation.
If it is ever in question, they can go back to the dictators original dictation (if available) and see that is what he/she said and they are directly responsible for the content of their reports.
Hope this helps.
