Pes plano valgus with gastroc constracture, forefoot varus, left side, is correct. Technically, in OP report headings, I was always taught to spell things out like "gsstrocnemius" even if the doc abbreviates because it is a main heading, but it also goes with your account. Hope I have helped!!
Talus equinus? sm
Subject: Talus equinus? sm
I've had a few years of ortho experience, but it's been a year or two since I've done any. However, this is the first thing that popped into my mind. Search and see if that seems to fit. My guess is that the talus is in the equinus position?

As far as I can find talus is only referred to in the foot/ankle, but this doctor is doing a cyst excision on the middle finger and says "The talus formation to the dorsal soft tissue was also s/l lipsed out." Can someone help with the talus formation part and also "lipsed out"? THanks

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.

Hi all! I am doing an OP for a lumbar spine surgeon, but this is just for an I&D. He says the area was probed with "sucker tips" and was found to be subfascial. I am not too comfortable with what I am finding online for this. Has anyone heard this before? Thanks!

could she be saying communication, as in an opening has formed between 2 sinuses or something?
It is so frustrating to be given only a tidbit of a report instead of being able to puzzle it out from what is going on with the patient.
Thanks, but as I'm into the report it
Subject: Thanks, but as I'm into the report it
sounds like this is some weird wording for microscopic blood.
I've done thousands of endoscopy reports and GI consults, but I can't think why he'd say "affobiddy positive stool" instead of something about occult blood or microscopic blood.

MRI report s/m
Subject: MRI report s/m
MRI of the brain shows what looks to be an acute infarct on DWI on the right brainstem area, which were also changes seen on the T2 weighted - s/l anuses - suggesting that this is probably an infarct, which occurred 7-10 days ago.
any ideas cuz I'm pretty sure there are no weighted "anuses" in the brain, at least not identifiable by MRI.

H & P Report
Subject: H & P Report
On an H & P report after you have typed the plan and then they repeat the vital signs is that a new category and if so what should the heading be, or is is set off in a new paragraph, or is just part of the plan. I'm a little confused as to how to put it at the end of the report.
H & P Report
Subject: H & P Report
Depends on your company or facility. My personal preference is to insert VITAL SIGNS into the physical exam portion of the dictation, right after GENERAL APPEARANCE or PHYSICAL EXAM. However, you have to follow the dictates of your employer.
H & P Report
Subject: H & P Report
She does indicate that info under VITAL SIGNS in the beginning. This is like a recheck at the end of her report. This is what she says:
His repeat vital signs: His heart rate was down to 107. His blood pressure was 124/86, and he was able to stand and move with greater ease.
