A Veress needle was placed and no complications with that. The *meniscus test was positive. Carbon dioxide gas was used to establish a pneumoperitoneum with approximately 50 mmHg with 2.1 L of gas.

"intact subscap tear"
Subject: "intact subscap tear"
This guy has no accent or anything, and orthopedics is one of my favs--but this guy says FLAP tear one place, and SLAP tear another. It's stuff like that. All I can say is thank heavens for QA when I get boogers like this guy. As much as I hate to add to their workload, I can't take a chance, either.
And thank you for your help. Who knows how this will end up. It's his slurring, not mine (but I may consider it later, even tho I don't drink)!
