Sounds like he was caught not being specific enough.
Subject: Sounds like he was caught not being specific enough.

You should have been given account specific pages that explain what is expected. Nobody really knows what verbatim means until account specifics are spelled out. He needs to take a chill pill and put his expectations in writing, get approval from his supervisor, then run those specifics by the contact for the account. Otherwise all the MTs will change what they are doing and somebody at the hospital will object and then you'll have to change the way you do things AGAIN! JMO.

This IS the place to correct misspelled terms, sm
Subject: This IS the place to correct misspelled terms, sm

otherwise, how is the MT to know? Better to be corrected here than have a bad QA mark or the dictating physician find the mistake. Many of the horrific errors are things the MT should have learned in 6th grade, for goodness' sake.

We're losing our work to offshoring. We've got to clean up our acts so that we can keep our jobs. Here's a place to start.

In one of the posts here, there are 6 grammar errors. Are these errors repeated in the final product?

Congratulations, Becky, on knowing the difference between "awhile" and "a while." You're one of few.

Thanks for all the input.  It is helpful to get opinions from other MTs with more experience. I really love coming here for advice and trying to give some if I can.

technically not a drug called Toprol should this be transcribed as Toprol-XL though dictated as only Toprol. Have not been called on this yet, but just wondering what others do.

Please click here to view the full topic text: Bee and Hymenoptera Stings

Background: Hymenoptera stings account for more deaths in the United States than any other envenomation. Order Hymenoptera includes Apis species, ie, bees (European, African), vespids (wasps, yellow jackets, hornets), and ants. Although most deaths result from immunologic mechanisms, some are from direct toxicity. Severe anaphylactoid reactions occur occasionally when toxins directly stimulate mast cells. While the vast majority of stings cause only minor problems, stings cause a significant number of deaths.

Hi!


I would probably make just a minor adjustment as I think he's talking about edema in both ankles:


EXTREMITIES:  There is edema of the right ankle at the site of fracture times two, trace to 1+ on the left.  Significantly diminished pulses, equal 0-1 DP and PT lower extremities bilaterally.  Normal upper.


As for the rest....looks okay to me...not sure about the "equal" part - sorry!  Good job!


Hope this helps some...
Subject: Hope this helps some...

Conus medullaris and the cauda equina are within the normal limits.  Intervertebral disk at L4-5 has mildly diminished signal, indicating desiccation at its interspace.


FINDINGS:  There is a mild bulge centrally with facet osteoarthropathy but no significant canal stenosis. 


**I'm not 100% without actually hearing the dictation that interspace and facet osteoarthropathy are definite, but with years of rad experience that's the best guess I can make for ya, both would be acceptable in that context as you have listed it.  But I at least FINALLY figured out blank #1 (bulge..not bone)!!  Yipee!  LOL Hope this helps ya!

I just cannot seem to get a grasp of this guy today. Pt is seen for congestive heart failure. Here are the sentences leading up to my problem:


We will check a BMP today to reevaluate renal function and, if he does have a markedly elevated creatinine, we may not be able to do this (referring to 64-slice CT angiography). I am hopeful that, with ___ and renal protection, we can get by with this. We will also plan on checking a TSH and baseline blood work, including a CBC and BNP for outpatient baseline.     


Sounds like mucavest. I then thought of Mucomyst, but would like to know if anyone agrees because it does not make sense to me.


 


Thanks for any help!
