Subject: Do sports medicine and ortho, could it be "gauze wrap" being mispronounced???sm

I am searching my references as we speak, nothing seems really close in sound, for contusion, usually they use an Ace wrap bandage and gauze (or some other elastic-type bandage), ice, and elevate, and rest.  I will keep looking, though!!

My doc is dictating about a teenage baseball player.  He had an AC joint separation and wants to start the season.  The doc says the patient can "continue to s/l de gauge, continue to do tossing and as soon as he has no pain, throwing and light tossing of the ball"   Sounds like de gauge or dig H (my doc has a spanish accent, not too heavy, though)  Any ideas?  Thanks.

Yep, it's in mine too. I just couldn't wrap my brain around what it was exactly.

Patient in with a burn has a "Vaseline Adaptic baseball wrap" applied to his hand?

Vaseline dressing I know. Adaptic dressing I know. Baseball wrap/dressing I cannot seem to find or verify anywhere.

Also, I can't find all three of them together anywhere either. (nor just Vaseline and Adaptic together- and since Adaptic looks to also be petroleum jelly like Vaseline I don't quite get it- but I'm willing to buy it.)
