Zimmer IB?

Zimmer IB, 2 knee components were used.


This is the sentence but it doesn't make sense to me.  What is IB? and should there be a comma after Zimmer or something?


Zimmer IB2
Subject: Zimmer IB2

I have spent sooo much time researching this.  During a total knee arthroplasty:  "Zimmer IB2 knee components were used."  I get the impression  IB2 has been discontinued, since even the Zimmer website does not list such an item.  Have any of you transcribed a TKA using a Zimmer IB2 implant?

Subject: Zimmer TM-100 cage used in back surgery

I'm doing a report for placement of a Zimmer TM-100 ______foam cage at the C4-5 level.  Neuro reports of this sort take me so long because I have such a hard time finding and documenting the instrumentation that they use!  I've checked my reference books and googled, to no avail.  I can't seem to figure out the first part of the 'foam' word for this cage.  It sounds kinda' like zylofoam, tanofoam or tilofoam.  Arghhhh!

I too love Google but be V_E_R_Y careful w/google
Subject: I too love Google but be V_E_R_Y careful w/google

Google is great for retrieving anything faster than the speed of light *lol* - but if the info comes from a nonverifiable medical website, be very wary.  There are a few I trust only...the NIH for one (Nat'l Institute of Health) and the CDC (Center for Disease Control) and a few others out of the government actually.


As for prescription places, I trusted rx.com for far too long, there are many more reliable drug websites out there... medilexicon.com is a great site and to confirm a proper name of a disease or things like that, there is whonamedit.com which, if you write to the site owner, can be added to (I have done some communication with the site owner so this is 100% true). 


When I first started using google in MT work about 8 years ago as google is not that old, (got online 12 years ago, been an MT since 1980), I had looked up Spironolactone, and Google gave the spelling to me incorrectly and (who knew it was wrong?!?!??) I used their spelling and I was wrong. 


So, only advice is be VERY CAREFUL what YOU CHOOSE to use as far as websites go regarding MT/ME work because in the end you're the one responsible....not google.

Total thyroidectomy
Subject: Total thyroidectomy

At the end of a total thyroidectomy procedure, the doc says EE to AA phonation is intact.  I can't document EE to AA phonation, and I'm wondering if I'm hearing it correctly.  I also wonder if I should transcribe EE:AA phonation, but I can't find this anywhere in my Google search efforts!
