palliative cells
Subject: palliative cells

Wasn't sure which board to put this on.  I have 20-some years exp in onc, can usually Google to find new terms/meds etc, rarely have to leave blanks.  One particular dictator (not a doc, a PA-C who is not only a mushmouth but also mispronounces everything) today stated that the pathology showed something-cells suspicious for carcinoma.  It really sounded like he was saying "palliative" cells, but of course that doesn't make sense.  I tried to make it into "palisading" cells but no, it definitely ended with "ive" not "ing" so I sent it to QA.  I went back in the report later in the day and sure enough, QA had filled it in with "palliative" cells suspicious for carcinoma.  What would you do?  Please correct me if I'm wrong, but this doesn't make sense at all to me.  Even though it did sound like "palliative" cells, I really think he meant something else but was mispronouncing it.  Any input?

"Ortho RICE" -- from an emergency department nurse practitioner
Subject: "Ortho RICE" -- from an emergency department nurse practitioner

very annoying young woman who says in her "Plan": ortho RICE ... I've googled but I can't find this as an "entity" -- I know was RICE is -- but usually she has not mentioned any form of "compression", so in my irritation I've just been leaving it at RICE ... would you spell it out or leave abbreviated? Ditto BRAT diet which can be banana, rice, apple sauce/apple juice + tea/toast so I leave it at BRAT.

they should care
Subject: they should care

well, who should care?  The MT him or herself.  This can be a crutch IMO.  And, no, my opinion doesn't amount to a pile o' beans in the grand scheme of things.  Maybe my post should have been more helpful, than critical, and should have asked posters if they know how to search.  I've gotten really good at it and can find just about anything really.  For instance, someone just recently posted ligament of Treitz question.  All I did was google, ligament of *.  Bingo! 


Anyway, to the person who said I should just use the back button, pfft.

2 types of anesthesia care -- see msg.
Subject: 2 types of anesthesia care -- see msg.

Local and MAC (monitored anesthesia care) are 2 types of anesthesia, so probably "Local/MAC" would be best. However, I don't think I have ever been dinged on QA for typing "Local MAC" with a space.

Here is a link to an article on anesthesia types.
