s/l the *instilling* needle was replaced into the knee

TIA

ORIF of forearm  - this dr is a great dictator and speaks very clearly but does this make sense?

The anterior approach of Henry was now performed.  Care was taken to preserve all neurovascular structures.  The fracture site was **** s/l rarely *** delineated.  A butterfly fragment was noted.  The fracture was now reduced and the butterfly component was provisionally pinned with small K-wires. 

I can hear it very clearly, but I cannot reference it anywhere.  Doc says "Irrigation was done of the wound as well as a bone towel at this time".

Does this make sense to anyone?  Thanks for any help.

the patient had an implanted pacemaker which is not eluded to here.  Just a note, adenosine is not capitalized except to start a sentence.

Maybe you will hear something back.

d~

"CPK and _______ were negative"  s/l intraconals??

Still on the pulmonologist's report...

What kind of surgery is it? If he used "lap" laparotomy pads may be the second one. They usually say sponge, needle and instrument counts. Will keep thinking on this one. Type of surgery would help.

Vocal cord lesion biopsy -

Peripheral -s/l orb or oral- sinuses were intubated to their apices and were normal.

Specimen was sent -s/l informal- and for pathology.

TIA!

OP report, lumbar spine

Next, fluoroscopy was used to place new screws at the L2-3 segment.  Starting points were identified at the confluence of the midpoint of the transverse process, the **manloid** process, and the pars interarticularis

He really mumbles through this part, so I am just not sure, but I have not heard this term used before. Thanks!

FINDINGS:  Epidurogram revealed normal (s/l-cephaloquadet-) contrast flow outlining the right L5 nerve root sleeve in the epidural space with good flow achieved medial to the right L5 pedicle.  The patient did experience some concordant L5 symptoms on the right side during the injection.  Vital signs remained stable throughout. 

Patient was premedicated with intravenous s/l Benadryl. 

Would that be right?

I never do op notes!  The sentence reads:

The S/L RAFFAY between the anterior and middle deltoids was then opened.  TIA!

The patient has focal severe slowing primarily in sensory fibers in the right upper extremity, on multiple restimulation unable to elicit a response to both s/l "Palmar 8" studies. 

I can't find this anywhere.  Anybody have any ideas?  Thanks!

The patient has a 4 mm calcification on the pelvis on the right which may represent a s/l flevolith, thus a right ureteral calculus could not be entirely occluded. 

general s/l elam anesthesia. New to OP reports! TIA

I tried to dilate the urethra with  s/l male sounds, but they would not pass easily due to the false passes. (Talking about bladder stones).

He says it clearly, but I've never heard of these nor can I find it.  Can't find anything under "Mayo" either thinking perhaps it was an instrument of some kind. 

The findings of the daily CXR on this patient are stable and unchanged, but the dictator gets to the "impression" and says:  s/l peri-grass--ity of the chest radiograph. 

I'm sure this is something simple and I should know it - it's probably a "normal" word.  But my brain is just not working tonight.  Help? 

Hi I am typing an ER report that says this:

The patient had an ORS?? report performed that shows he has had 24 prescriptions for narcotics.

I know there is a report the doctors can get but I cannot find it anywhere!  Please help!!!
