It does not s/l Combivent and there is no indication that the patient has asthma or COPD.  Thanks for trying!

I have seen this is on other Medical Transcription Word Boards where doctor's seem to "bastardize" the word and use the term bundloid. Don't know if it is legit or not, but this is the third time from a transcriptionist I have seen it.

and before I e-mail my PS, I wanted to see if I was wrong.  I researched but seems I was right.  I was corrected for using Entero Vu contrast - I was told it is Enteroview.  According to Stedman's it is Entero Vu plus I have been Radiology for 10 years and always used this spelling.  I was also corrected on using centimeters per second - I use cm/s but was corrected to cm/sec.  Any help on these?  Thanks!

I checked Google and Stedman's in several places!

I want to tell you that Dorland is a little outdated and oldfashiomed.

This is NOT an EXCEPTION, this I can tell you, because I studied Latin.

It is decubitus / decubiti

or

decubitus ulcer / decubitus ulcers.

The OP said that the doctor dictated 'decubiti'. If this is on top of it a 'verbatim' account and she types decubitus, whereas the doctor dictated 'decubiti', then she WILL REALLY BE IN TROUBLE.

IF YOU LIKE IT OR NOT !

And why do you threaten me?

I think you are a QA????

2. Use an Apostrophe with -s for Possessives of Singular Nouns
Use an apostrophe plus -s to show the possessive form of a singular noun, even if that singular noun already ends in -s:

Harold's crayon
my daughter's First Communion
Sylvia Plath's poetry
Dylan Thomas's poetry
today's weather report
the boss's problem
Star Jones's talk show
Victoria Beckham's husband.

So. I guess, it is

I don't really have any suggestions for your missing words, but I do have a few general suggestions. 


Are the terms in parenthesis the ones you don't know?  If they are, put s/l in front of it (s/l= sounds like), and then do your best to type what you are hearing phonetically.  Sometimes it also helps people figure out the missing words if you can share as much about the physical condition of the patient that you know. 


Good luck with your training!

It was really unclear.

It may have been trapezius, but I looked at it from every angle I could, thinking he may have been saying TM - for teres minor --

So I finally gave up and did the safe thing...QA!

Thanks.

The patient had something in his eye. The eye was numbed with ophthalmic phenacaine, and also, the eye was stained with fluorescein and checked with blue light.

I think that is what he means but is clearly spelling with a P. Guess this is one for QA. Too bad for me that he mentions it several times in the report.

Thanks for the suggestion!

You are probably right and the doctor is misprouncing the word. I still hear a K and X sound so I shall leave a blank just in case being that I do not have a firm diagnosis to match it up with. Thanks for your help!
