It's a psychedelic drug. There's a lot of info on Google - how to make, side effects, etc., but I don't find anything other than illegal use.

Yes, I checked medical references...
Subject: Yes, I checked medical references...

I checked Google and Stedman's in several places!

I want to tell you that Dorland is a little outdated and oldfashiomed.

This is NOT an EXCEPTION, this I can tell you, because I studied Latin.

It is decubitus / decubiti

or

decubitus ulcer / decubitus ulcers.

The OP said that the doctor dictated 'decubiti'. If this is on top of it a 'verbatim' account and she types decubitus, whereas the doctor dictated 'decubiti', then she WILL REALLY BE IN TROUBLE.

IF YOU LIKE IT OR NOT !

And why do you threaten me?

I think you are a QA????
Figures!!!!
To me it has always been inferomedial. I've looked at all my references
Subject: To me it has always been inferomedial. I've looked at all my references

including Dorland's 29th ed and there is no inframedial per se.  Just looking into One Look dictionary to do a wide search of online dictionaries, it is not even listed as a medical term.  I know it sounds like a real word, inframedial, inferior of the midline, but in all my years, it has been inferomedial for me.

person, even one person from a Cannabis site! The MRI info was probably keyed in by a lay person also. There no reference for "brachioplexy" in any Stedman's reference, any Dorland's reference, Taber's or even in the rxlist.
Did you notice the other misspellings in the Google listings?

Brachioplexy makes no sense. It's brachial plexus, brachial plexopathy.

Best not to be facetious with an MT with over 30 years' experience, with a 99-100% QA rating at all times.

You still didn't define "brachioplexy" which is what I asked.

No wonder we're losing our work to a foreign country.

trying to make it make sense. The only thing I can figure is that since the patient has instability, the LCL would be the likely cause (probably torn). But he never says anything about the LCL, so I'm anxious about it. It just seems to make more sense to have ACL reconstruction. Thanks.

Patient has had rheumatoid arthritis for over 30 years. Has had total hip arthroplasty, then several revisions with bone grafting. The last procedure ultimately failed.

Don't know if doctor is combining two procedures here and not sure if either are for hip (Bridle procedure and Stone procedure), but he's saying something that s/l brittlestone procedure.

Thanks for any help.

You can often use Google to find words by how
Subject: You can often use Google to find words by how

Sometimes you can type a partial phrase and install an asterisk (*) that will bring up a word if it's frequently used with the others. For example, try typing 'Nexium, *, Pepcid and lactose', or something similar, and see if Google brings up a word that it might be in the list of results. Or, type the phrase and put your best guess of how it's spelled, such as 'Frolic', 'Rolic', 'Folex', etc. Sometimes doing something like that, using Google as a Soundex, will bring results.
