Subject: orthopedics--type of shoe--tarsal? Harstal? Harshall? Partial?

As you can see, I am really reaching for this one.  This is a type of shoe that is worn when someone has an ankle fracture. I'm thinking it could be "tarsal shoe" but then it almost sounds like "Harstel shoe" or something else entirely. I need an expert on shoe types and/or orthopedics to help me!

I-PRO shoe?
Subject: I-PRO shoe?

The doc is describing an offloading shoe.  He pronounces it "I-PRO" but I can't find that anywhere.  The closest I can get is in my Stedman's Equipment Words, "ipos heel relief shoe," but the doctor specifically says it is to shift weight TO the heel, for a forefoot amputation site wound.  Anybody?

I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.
Subject: I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.

I have had that happen to me before, and I was told by QA to not move things around in the report, maybe that is the same for you, but if I were typing this report, I would type it in the order as is dictated, even if that means typing it under the heading PLAN.  Also, his vitals were probably taken at the end of the exam as they were repeated, so it would make sense to type them again under that heading.  Hope that helps!
