How do you type peak flow
Subject: How do you type peak flow

values? In vital signs, doc is dictating: Peak flows 293, 60 360. How would you correctly type that? I’ve not dealt with this before.

Thanks for your help!

Systolic murmur
Subject: Systolic murmur

Hi! I have a rather simple (I hope) question. I have an ESL that always dictates 2/6 systolic murmur **at LLB and apex**. Is LLB correct? Every time she says this I try to look it up again, but it is a little difficult to search. Thanks for any advice on this!

without ectopy or murmur
Subject: without ectopy or murmur

I would have to hear myself what you are hearing as
"GYN: Morbid hemoglobin, but it's just "Bowel sounds were active throughout." GYN doesn't go at the end of that sentence.

Could you be hearing the next subheading of the exam, possibly
Genitalia: Something or other? Maybe "Genitalia: Normal."

With "hemoglobin" starting the lab section?

Sorry. ESM is ejection systolic murmur. sm
Subject: Sorry. ESM is ejection systolic murmur. sm

ISH is isolated septal hypertrophy, ASH is asymmetric septal hypertrophy, but I doubt these. Maybe she's making a word out of abbreviations, again doubt. I'd leave a blank and flag it unless someone else has an idea. She may have started to say something like "ischemia" but cut herself off. Doubt if she'd say "murmurish." That wouldn't make any sense. I'll keep thinking about it. Please let us know what you find out.

murmur "lows" and a T S1, S2 somewhat irregular?????
Subject: murmur "lows" and a T S1, S2 somewhat irregular?????

I have two questions on a cardiology transcription I am doing, if you could help. Dictator first says "heart: a T S1, S2 somewhat irregular", the t is throwing me off...what is she meaning by that. Also, she says he has a grade 1-2/6 murmur "lows" emphasis on the S so low SS, if that makes any sense...any ideas on what either of these things mean? I appreciate the help!

1/6 vs 1/VI systolic ejection murmur.
Subject: 1/6 vs 1/VI systolic ejection murmur.

Hi Ginny,

Actually, both are technically correct. However, for us it depends on client. Some want it with regular numbers and some want the roman numeral. As per the AHDI book of style 2 though "arabic v roman numerals
There is a trend away from the use of roman numerals and toward the use of arabic numerals. A good example of this is in diabetes terminology, where an international expert committee dropped the roman numerals in favor of arabic, noting the danger of a roman numeral II being misread as an arabic number 11. In addition, the AMA Manual of Style states, "Avoid the use of roman numerals except when part of established nomenclature." Copyright (c) 2002 American Association for Medical Transcription"
That being said, I would use 1/6 unless otherwise specified by client or boss.

I have always typed heart murmur (ex: 2/6 ejection murmur).  However, I have a new NP who states it using roman numerals (II/VI ejection murmur).  Which is correct?  Thanks!

Subject: I am hearing the "n" either noted or not heard, but I don't hear murmur. sm

I just don't hear "murmur" though. He is a heavy ESL so it could be murmur I guess. He says this on several patients and I cannot hear murmur in any. I will keep listening.
