Subject: DVT - deep venous thrombosis

Depends on the preferences of your company. I just put DVT myself, but my account allows for that.

What is this "plamery cemal"?

I disagree re: deep-seated versus deep-seeded
Subject: I disagree re: deep-seated versus deep-seeded

I believe deep-seeded may be correct.  It is a term frequently used in oncology and dermatology.  "Deep-seeded" means that something has been "seeded" from another site (primary), as in metastasis.  Please do a Google search and form your own opinion on this.

Yep - crypts - deep pits in tonsils
Subject: Yep - crypts - deep pits in tonsils

Tonsillar crypts are deep recesses found on the surface of the tonsils. Chronic tonsillitis often results from the accumulation of partially digested food debris in the depths of these crypts. When the crypts are particularly deep, the debris may actually form concretions known as tonsilloliths. Chronic tonsil inflammation associated with such debris in the crypts in most cases can be successfully managed by relatively simple oral hygiene measures designed to mechanically cleanse or irrigate the tonsils. Scheduled and regular gargling with antiseptic rinses such as Cepacol or saline-soda solutions (1/4 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp baking soda in 6-8 oz water) are helpful in many. For more difficult cases, the use of a Water-Pik device with pulsating jets of solution directed at the tonsil crypts is advised. Antibiotics may be occasionally recommended for acute exacerbations associated with bacterial colonization of the crypts, however, antibiotics are often not particularly helpful. Ultimately, if these measures fail, and if the individual is sufficiently syptomatic, tonsil removal may be recommended.

How to type this. Deep tendon reflexes plus 2 plus 2. Also, abdomen has half plus tenderness-sm
Subject: How to type this. Deep tendon reflexes plus 2 plus 2. Also, abdomen has half plus tenderness-sm

I have been typing: Deep tendon reflexes +2/+2. Does that seem correct?

For half plus tenderness of abdomen, I have been typing: Abdomen with ˝+ tenderness. I make sure it changes from 1/2+ to ˝+ so that it doesn't look like one over two plus. Does this seem right?

Thanks.

Is there a preferred way to transcribe venostasis/venous stasis?  I've always typed venostatis (in reference to changes in the extremity).  QA person saying that venostasis is "treatment of CHF by compression proximal veins of the extremities with tourniquets" taken from Stedman's dictionary...  your thoughts?  Thank you!
