There is also a PA view (my understanding is just a different way of standing when taking the x-ray vs an AP view). The way you are typing them is correct.

Doc is an ESL and unclear, but it s/l he is saying "...using a 3 K 21/2 bath." I have never had this in a report and after googling, am still as clueless as I was. I cannot find it in AAMT, either. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

how to type out Type I Aortic aneurysm
Subject: how to type out Type I Aortic aneurysm

Would you use a roman numeral for Type I Aortic aneurysm or use Type one or type 1 ... I am thinking it is Type I but I am unsure. I am new to this all. Thanks for any help.
I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.
Subject: I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.

I have had that happen to me before, and I was told by QA to not move things around in the report, maybe that is the same for you, but if I were typing this report, I would type it in the order as is dictated, even if that means typing it under the heading PLAN.  Also, his vitals were probably taken at the end of the exam as they were repeated, so it would make sense to type them again under that heading.  Hope that helps!

Hi, I'm a semi-new transcriptionist who has had no formal training, and I'm having some problems figuring out a couple spellings.  One is a medication called *Inderon* (not sure how to spell).  The other is a phrase that I'm not sure what exactly the doctor is saying.  It sounds like *bill-raw-2 anastomoses*  Thanks SO much for any help!!!

Subject: two words

Inderon? How about Enduron.
A few words... need help!
Subject: A few words... need help!

This doctor is slurring bad so I don't even know if my examples will be accurate!! It sounds like she hasn't gone to med school OR general english and doesn't know how to pronounce words. Ugh.

- Glypenitin? Some kind of medication. Don't know what it is for as this patient has many diseases.
- Sounds like "see-ko" syndrome... I think. I can't understand her!! Fecal syndrome? LOL Maybe it's sickle syndrome.. I don't know.
- Sounds like "smith". As in positive ANA, positive SSA and SSB (I can't tell if it's SSA and SSB or just one or the other GRR!!!!), positive RNP, positive __________, positive rheumatoid factor.

I'm going to try to finish this report. Wish me luck. :/

For the fun of it!! Hydroclomibmwlap... I don't expect anyone to look THAT up. ;) That one deserves a big fat blank. Yes, that is the exact way she pronounced it.

Enavaprovolil was actually Enalapril. How horrible is that? LOL javascript:editor_insertHTML('text','');

Also, if anyone has a 2x4 so I can go beat this doctor senseless, I'd appreciate it. ;)
