Thanks for help!

"I also described to her the aspects of cystic duct impaction and an _______ of the gallbladder."

Sounds like em-ply-eem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you. 

The patient had a ??_________ study done last week and found out that she has some gallbladder abnormalities from her doctor today. 

It sounds like hitus study. I keep trying to search different studies and google only gives me hiatus which just does not seem correct.

Thanks so much!

There is a roughly 6 mm calcific density projecting over the right lower abdomen.  This is too low to be in the kidney.  I suspect this may be in a pitotic gallbladder.

"There are s/l capcid/capsid/capsized? stones layering in the gallbladder."  Any ideas anyone?

Hasson trocar was reinserted into the abdomen, and re-inflated the "superpacks, the vex" space was irrigated copiously

any idea what this is supposed to say?

I'm working on a file about an HIV patient who also has a MAC infection.  Under the "IMPRESSION", the dictation sounds like.  Situation further complicated by disseminated MAC infection which led to s/l INCESNAL obstruction due to severe s/l MACROLIDED lymphadenitis.  Improving s/l TEKEXIA.

Any help anyone could give me with any of those terms would be appreciated.

Thanks

If you keep a notebook with alphabetical tabs, you could make yourself a heading under SIGN, and you could also enter the word under all letters it might be pronounced as.  That's what I used to do.  Saved a lot of time in the long run, especially when you don't have enough information about the patient's problem to know what system or body part they are checking.   

I have 2 dermatology - I am usually not a derm girl, so any help is MUCH appreciated.

Assessment:  Nevus s/l: roo-let-ee s/l: tip-e-er midabdomen.  (Nevus ruletti tipiar midabdomen)?? AND:

s/l: Dermatified (or dromatified) broma right shin.  She uses this phrase in a previous sentence:

On his right shin he has superficial change that appears like a dermatified broma; however, it is not as nodular beneath the shin, but it is definitely excoriated or irritated on the surface. 

I just cannot find any info on these two - sorry this is so long.  I am covering for someone and would prefer not to send to the editor!!  TIA

nevus, rule out atypia, midabdomen

dermatofibroma

I have been assigned some work to help the office "catch up" and this is not my normal assignment.  Can someone help me with ventilator terminology??  I may be far off, but here is what I think I am hearing.

Thanks for any help or direction for a site with this info.

Dx foot pain/ Morton neuroma..

S/L Molder sign

S/L Hy-Grins deformity.

Here is the question - how do you type the word "stat"  meaning immediately?  Its a latin derivitive like n.p.o. , p.r.n. etc, and those are typed in lower case with periods.  So would it be "stat."    I have also seen it typed STAT  with no period.  I can't find it anywhere to back up my choice.  Any ideas???  Or where to look??
