Child has a brain tumor.  Heminephrectomy and s/l power line insertion performed at the same time, but I can't tell from the chart if they're related.

suprapubic tube insertion
Subject: suprapubic tube insertion

I'm typing up the description of the operation of a suprapubic tube insertion and it sounds like they are saying:


A scalpel was placed in this area, and a Bard 12-French suprapubic catheter was passed into the bladder


My question is.......does it make sense to say a scalpel was placed?  The dictation isn't really clear and it could be a different word. 


Also...it was hard to find information on Bard catheters.  Has anyone ever transcribed this term before...maybe they are not really saying Bard.......

?austregonim? at the posterior tibial tendon insertion.
Subject: ?austregonim? at the posterior tibial tendon insertion.

The ????? at the posterior tibial insertion certainly alters the pull of the posterior tibial tendon causing the functional pes planus deformity in his foot.  He is unable to adequately lift his medial longitudinal arch throughout midstance, leading to this pain at the posterior tibial insertion, weakness at the posterior tibial insertion, as well as plantar fasciitis. 


 


It is noted on X-ray.

s/l meniscus test during Veress needle insertion for laparoscopy?
Subject: s/l meniscus test during Veress needle insertion for laparoscopy?

Help..... Sounds like meniscus. Very clear.


 


The HUMI was then placed without complication. We changed our gloves and went up above. An incision was made in the infraumbilical portion with the scalpel. 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.  OB/GYN

I should know this, but perhaps am having an "old-timers" moment.    Is power of attorney capitalized when you are talking about it? You know, my power of attorney is Jane Doe. As opposed to using it as a title, Power of Attorney of Jane Doe. You guys are the best.
