PT/NOT ordered
Subject: PT/NOT ordered

For a patient who had back surgery and then came back with severe leg spasms. She was treated with IV Ancef, IV fluids at 80 and IM Toradol every 6 hours.  She was on a PCA, which was later stopped and changed to oral medication.  She received IV Decadron x 1 for the spasms, IV Pepcid x 1 and PT/NOT was ordered. 


What would the PT/NOT stand for?

STAT help please
Subject: STAT help please

Right atrial pressure was 13, RV pressure 47/14, PA pressure was 47/22, with a mean of 34, with a wedge of 25. LV "DP" was 118/23. The DP is what I am concerned about. I cannot verify DP, VP, BP one way or another. DP is what it sounds like, but  again I cannot find this for sure.


Thank you!

STAT report, Need a lab abbreviation, not very clear on
Subject: STAT report, Need a lab abbreviation, not very clear on

Hi,


Dr. is dictating about "a pathological fracture of the humerus, right - probable colon cancer, metastatic disease."


He then goes on to say, "I do not believe that the patient has had any bone scans. The first film that the patient has had of his humerus was post-fracture. Putting the pieces together, the patient has an elevated <INC 00:04:33> "s/l CDA? CdA" to 616.


I am not sure about CDA, it might be CBA, CVA (which I do not think that it is).  I cannot find this anywhere, not even in my oncology Stedman's.
