Subject: gastroc soleus

S/l "gastroc soleus equinus"--I know there is a gastrocnemius & have searched for gastrocsoleus.  Should it be typed as two words? Thanks so much for any help.

I took out my trusty Stedman's Ortho book and see that it is in there as "gastroc-soleus" I hope this helps.

For your info, I never knew Mohs was named after anyone until a couple of years ago.....when someone I knew was having the Mohs surgery. 


If one goes through life being as helpful (not accommodating) as one can be?  It truly will pay off........

with the period it sounds like in general she is less passive, and my understanding was that he was specifically saying that in work situations and other situations she was less passive. Okay, "other situations" is pretty vague, so maybe that's not far from being that way all the time, but I don't see any reason to make it 2 sentences. It is not a great writing, any way you do it, that's for sure.

Anywhoo, the site: http://www.medabbrev.com/main.cfm (which you need to be a member of, I believe to access it), says cc is now to be changed to mL because it is listed as a dangerous abbreviation, along with a whole other list of em.

A KUB, and abdomen series, and of course a barium enema (which can be done with air contrast as well). And a CT or MRI of the pelvis, of course.


But it would be unusual to just state "no air in the rectum" unless the doctor is discussing a bowel obstruction or something similar. Can you give us more context?

Subject: Quick Look does show it as an IV dose (sm)

Benadryl® Injection  I.M., I.V.: 10-50 mg in a single dose every 2-4 hours, not to exceed 400 mg/day.


However, fentanyl would be more common in an OP note (at least that has been my experience) and could kinda sort sound like Benadryl).  Did they give any dosage?

fentanyl - Preoperative sedation, adjunct to regional anesthesia, postoperative pain: I.M., I.V.: 50-100 mcg/dose
