It is like this:
...negative Homans.
or, if they dictated sign after Homans, it is like this: ...Homans' sign. Tell that to your MTSO. The continuing saga of "HIPAA" is killing me. The Gotcha Police are killing me too. We need to publish a book called THE BOTTOM LINE and all use it to avoid all the petty conflicts and misinformation.

Anybody know how to distinguish which retractor (Homan vs Hohmann) in ortho operative procedures? Both are listed in the Stedman's. Goggle is confusing me. This specific report is ORIF of medial malleolus fracture.

I'm getting way too confused on this as I find all three when I look them up. I have a transcription work book that says "Homans." Can someone please post which is correct or the most correct?
Thank you so very much!
