Has anyone ever heard of Carotid "end" pulses. This is the second time he has said this and sounds like "end" pulses. Is it possible he could be saying carotid "and" pulses are diminished bilaterally. I cannot find anything anywhere.
Thanks, Karen

Extremities - no CVA or CVP?
Subject: Extremities - no CVA or CVP?
Has anyone ever heard of either of these terms dictated under the "extremities" section of a physical exam? I can understand "no CVA" in a way because of the patient ever had a stroke then their extremities might be effected (although I would think this would go under the neuro section). Its the CVP that I'm not getting. I've checked my abbreviation references and I can't find anything this would refer to.
BTW, I left this blank. The QA department filled the blank with No CVA or CVP. I'm curious more than anything. Am I missing something here?
