Subject: In LAB portion: "a free T and a free T4"

I cannot find any just free T lab studies to be performed, and I am thinking he is leaving out the number after the T.  I could be wrong though, so if anyone knows of there is a lab test of just a free T please post back and let me know.


 


Thanks so much in advance.

    GI MT weighs in...for what it's worth:)
    Subject: GI MT weighs in...for what it's worth:)

    I type lab results a lot in my clinic notes and I would go with GGT, although I transcribe it as gamma-glutamyl transferase.

    I haven't stumbled across anything for GDT, or GBT, or GDP, or anything close in Stedman's GI & GU words or in Stedman's Pathology & Lab medicine words.

    Let us know if you are able to get feedback from your doctor regarding the correct term:) I'm interested to see how this pans out.

    done in the 1960's or so. My grandfather was told he would never have to worry about it coming back. By the time it did, his Dr had died and the CA had spread throughout his body. Because of what the Dr had told him, he never thought that was the problem. Of course, he did live to 88, but he was still working as a barber and we never wanted either one of them to die, ever. Sorry, I went on way past your question.

    bladder reflection - my 2 cents worth
    Subject: bladder reflection - my 2 cents worth

    In Dorland's "reflection" means a bending or turning back.  I have typed the expression often and am not truly sure how to explain it, but something like where the bladder is bent or folded onto the abdominal wall - as a location.   Below is an excert from Google.  What comes up in the notes I have is the following expression:


    The anterior leaflet of the broad ligament on both sides was then incised along the bladder reflection to the midline from both sides and the bladder was gently dissected


    The reflection of bladder on to the anterior abdominal wall is identified and the peritoneum divided at this position

    how about non weight-bearing?  How would you appropriately punctuate/hyphenate that one?
    non weight bearing

    proper way would be nonweight-bearing but you can also type it as non-weight-bearing.  In the medical dictionary - weight-bearing, therefore, nonweight-bearing.

    Subject: He's free to try to say whatever he wants. sm

    He can say whatever he wants to in court. It may sound harsh, but that's really not your problem. If you accept a contract to do a verbatim account, then that's what you do - a verbatim account. I'm not here to argue the point with you of whether verbatim accounts are a good idea or not, or whether the insurance company, lawyers, or the man in the moon will like it. I gave the correct answer to the OP. A verbatim account is just that - verbatim. If that's what the client wants, that's what the client gets.
