Pt with condyloma will certainly need..."anesthetic, fulguration, excision and cystoscopy."


Sorry, but I don't know urology well. Not sure if anesthetic fulguation go together or if this is a series of steps! Thank you!


 


 


does this sound right and is it punctuated correctly? 2nd ?
Subject: does this sound right and is it punctuated correctly? 2nd ?

The patient is a 42-year-old white female with a torn anterior cruciate ligament, medial meniscus, and anterolateral rotary instability.

Second question is shouldn't this be arthroscopy AND debridement? he doesn't say *and* but that is always how I have heard it. Third question is...is patella tendon graft correct or should it be patellar tendon graft?

I plan on doing an arthroscopy debridement and an anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using patella tendon graft.

Sorry for all the questions, but he is a speed demon today.

does this paragraph sound right and is it punctuated correctly
Subject: does this paragraph sound right and is it punctuated correctly

There were findings of a posterior horn tear of the medial meniscus, a small chondral injury of the medial tibial plateau, grade 4 out of 4, chondromalacia of the medial femoral condyle, grade 3 out of 4, chondromalacia patella and trochlea notch of the femur, grade 3 out of 4.

The doctor speeds through this paragraph at 75mph..does it make sense and is the punctuation correct? TIA.

I have nothing bad to say about them - got a little hectic after the new year in 2006 but is settling down some now but changes are always happening in this field and many other fields out there and medquist is not exempt from said changes.  Change is a constant in life, whether we like it, want it, or not.  I have had a great production supervisor (PS) over all this time, especially the last 5 years who works with the MTs instead of against them (as COULD happen anywhere at any job). 


Happy Holiday to You and hope you pass the test and if so, WELCOME ABOARD........ and if not, Good Luck in all your endeavors!
