Male sounds are shaped differently than female sounds. Obviously, male sounds being longer. They are used to dilate the urethra in order to facilitate the passage of stones or perhaps JJ stents etc. They come in different diameters ie..18FR, 20FR etc. Hope this helps.

Subject: to me KEY sounds like Q more than T....sm

I have known T-wave and Q-wave - s/l *key* may be either Q or T.....is this an ESL dictator? 


Also, in an EKG, as I know it, the leads are in Roman numerals....leads I, II, and aVF (for example). 


I WOULD, however, blank the Q or T - because key/tee k/q sounds.  It could be either/or and I would blank it....but, of course, this is from yesterday, and the report probably already went back.  *lol*
