I have a Stedman's Ortho & Rehab book too

I type strictly ortho reports and that book has helped tremendously!! They have other books for other specialties too. They are worth every penny! 


 


 


My most worn Stedman's is the Ortho & Rehab.
The binding is totally beat and I actually have pages starting to fall out...second to that would be the Cardiology and Pulmonary words.  Congratulations on your new gig!
I have Stedman's Ortho and Rehab Words electronic on

Get a Stedman's Ortho & Rehab word book, . . .
and you can check.  Put them into your word Expander correctly (capped or not), and you won't have to try to remember which tests are and aren't capped.  :)
Can't live w/o the Sted's Ortho&Rehab Words. Still use it often 12 years in! nm

Not the OP, but the Sted's Ortho & Rehab Words is invaluable and should cover

Try the Vocational Rehab in your state
You may qualify for their providing you special equipment to continue doing your work.  Their mission is to keep people gainfully employed, especially in the face of disabilities, and off government aid like SSD.  There is a well-known woman in the MT community who has had tremendous accomplisments with the assistance of Voc Rebab.
Stedman's Orthopedic & Rehab Words, both on CD and book
With the CD, all you do is highlight the word and click on the icon.
Rehab is easy, some muscle names might get you at first but you will learn quick - sm
I first started on PT, good way to start when you are green. Loved it, simple and good lines.
I've found this resource pretty useful for rehab work. Link inside.

Have this as one of my bookmarks - found this handy whilst handling rehab work. Hope this helps!

pt ortho
There is a post on job seeker's board for part-time ortho or p.r.n. I am not sure if it is filled yet or not. You will have to scroll down a ways to find it.
and if you can do ortho, you then can...sm
do radiology and then neurology and rheumatology......it all kind of links together in that way, at least for me 28 years ago is how it went....ortho to radiology to neurology and rheumatology and now today I can do it all........I especially love infectious dz, oncology, and I do not like OB/GYN nor eyes. 
ortho help

 


I imagine it's pseudarthrosis .. not pseudOarthrosis. 


W/C and Ortho
I have five years experience in both; work done is for the state of CA, although I do not live there. Every specialty has its own terminology, etc. It should not be too difficult a transition, but it could be challenging to make lines until you become familiar with it.
Ortho
I've done ortho and acute care so far.

I like ortho the best, probably because I started out doing that. They have such a huge number of strangely-named signs and tests though that just slay me!

ER reports sound like they might be interesting. Seems like you'd hear it all doing those!
Ortho help


Due to account reassigment I am now going to be doing strictly orhto accounts.


I do have Instant Text and several Stedmans such as phrases but no specific specialty books.  


I am wondering if the Ortho Word Book is something I should purchase?


I am also wondering about some the ABCZ products?


I welcome any suggestions.


Thanks!


ortho help

I have done ortho clinic in the past, just not 100% of the time.


I previously did multispcialty for many years which mostly consisted of family practice with an occational specialty thrown in to break the monotomy.


I would not say I am nervous about 100% ortho but I am "cautiously optimistic". Since it seems likeall I would be doing in the immediate future I was wondering if I should invest in the books etc.


Thanks for the input and offer to help.


Ortho
IMHO Ortho is the easiest of all unless it's urology.  An ortho book mighth make it easier for you...like Stedman's.  If you do ops think carpenter...hammer, screws, nails, etc.  You can use the Stedman's Word Book to look up say "screw" or "Pin" or "nail" to get the specific name.  I would highly recommend it.  Good luck to ya.
I am looking for prn ortho work. Can anyone help me?

ortho work
what area?
OJT training (especially for ortho)
I think cardiology may get a little more complicated (or not) depending where you work. I think orthopedics is probably easy enough for you to pick up on the job considering your experience. I would try for OJT. Good luck!
Ortho term for PIP fx. sm
Gotta be significant. Listen again. :)

(Sometimes we can try TOO hard, ya know? :))
ortho procedures
 It sounds like the MD is saying "oatsi"  this is on a patellofemoral procedure. Can anyone help?
WC ortho always interesting...
I love doing ortho WC! It's like watching soap operas without getting hooked. Will this person be a malingerer, or does he really have long-term injuries? Very interesting.
Wish I was doing ortho surgery!!
....I like bones better than organs!!
Sted's Ortho
Stedman's Orthopaedic & Rehab Words 5th Edition (bright green) includes chiropractic, occupational therapy, physical therapy, PODIATRIC, & Sports Medicine.
Ortho/WC experience
I've been doing WC ortho/neurology for 10 years in Oregon. It was my first transcription job with no prior transcription experience, so pretty easy to catch onto.
ortho and W/C experience
I have ortho and W/C experience, about 9 years of it.
ortho references
Anyone know any good ortho web sites?  Joints?  foot orthotics?
Ortho sites
I am fairly new to orthopedics. Anybody have some good websites for ortho terms and medications?
Here's a link that will be invaluable for ortho.
Hope it helps a lot!
Need help with ortho term for PIP fracture

I'm working on an ortho eval for a patient with a PIP fracture.  Doctor has dictated an unfamiliar term (there's always that ONE WORD) for me.  He dictates, "X-ray examination today shows impaction at the base of the middle phalanx with approximately 70% joint surface involvement."  Here's the word I don't know (spelled phonetically--Sorry":  "A syphiant(??) portion of the joint surface is translated dorsally."


If someone could point me in the right direction for finding this word, I would really appreciate it!


Ortho term for PIP fracture
I see "significant." :)
4th ed stedman's ortho book
is listed on ebay for 9.99, if anyone is interested.  I have 100% positive feedback rating, so you can bid with confidence.  "judymari"
Have you tried Ortho-Novum? It is usually a lot cheaper. SM
When I tried Yasmin, it was going to be about $30/month on my insurance but I switched to Ortho-Novum, which is what I had used years ago for a long time anyway, and it is only $10/month. I know - it is ridiculous the way drug prices are.
Just started ortho specialty... Does anyone
