Thanks for help!

I'm working on a file about an HIV patient who also has a MAC infection.  Under the "IMPRESSION", the dictation sounds like.  Situation further complicated by disseminated MAC infection which led to s/l INCESNAL obstruction due to severe s/l MACROLIDED lymphadenitis.  Improving s/l TEKEXIA.

Any help anyone could give me with any of those terms would be appreciated.

Thanks

If you keep a notebook with alphabetical tabs, you could make yourself a heading under SIGN, and you could also enter the word under all letters it might be pronounced as.  That's what I used to do.  Saved a lot of time in the long run, especially when you don't have enough information about the patient's problem to know what system or body part they are checking.   

I have 2 dermatology - I am usually not a derm girl, so any help is MUCH appreciated.

Assessment:  Nevus s/l: roo-let-ee s/l: tip-e-er midabdomen.  (Nevus ruletti tipiar midabdomen)?? AND:

s/l: Dermatified (or dromatified) broma right shin.  She uses this phrase in a previous sentence:

On his right shin he has superficial change that appears like a dermatified broma; however, it is not as nodular beneath the shin, but it is definitely excoriated or irritated on the surface. 

I just cannot find any info on these two - sorry this is so long.  I am covering for someone and would prefer not to send to the editor!!  TIA

nevus, rule out atypia, midabdomen

dermatofibroma

I have been assigned some work to help the office "catch up" and this is not my normal assignment.  Can someone help me with ventilator terminology??  I may be far off, but here is what I think I am hearing.

__SIV m---__ rate set at 16 and tolerating the 550 and FI to 40 percent and a peak of 10.  ___longest set of peak___ratio of 182.  Her morning blood gas shows a pH of 7.48, a PC2 of 36 and a PAO2 of 73.

Thanks for any help or direction for a site with this info.

Dx foot pain/ Morton neuroma..

S/L Molder sign

S/L Hy-Grins deformity.

TIA.

Here is the question - how do you type the word "stat"  meaning immediately?  Its a latin derivitive like n.p.o. , p.r.n. etc, and those are typed in lower case with periods.  So would it be "stat."    I have also seen it typed STAT  with no period.  I can't find it anywhere to back up my choice.  Any ideas???  Or where to look?? Sue

I just can't find this in my resources:

On CT it was a 2.5-cm lobulated density with *s/l glucose aved*, which was read as 70% probability of showing neoplasm.

Thanks.

Fine needle aspiration of submental mass.  Several passes made, placed on slides, preserved with alcohol.  Several passes made, placed on slides and preserved with sicomono fluid.

THX in advance for your help!

Sometimes I think the surgical Fellows coming in try to use terms just to stump people!!

The pathology shows a primary cutaneous malignant melanoma with a breadth lode depth of 0.6 millimeters.

Does this make sense or am I hearing it totally wrong!?  I do a lot of melanoma reports but have never had the doctor use this term.  Then again -- she says in a different part of the report "mid thoracic back lesion". 

This is a dictator new on staff--deep Southern accent, fast talker.  Sent this guy to QA the first time I got him, but no response yet.  He's surgically treating burns.

#1 Surgical preparation was carried out using a #10 blade as well as a S/L Norson/Norrison.

#2 The area of cadaver skin was covered with S/L Bridobel, Acticoat and sterile dressing. 

I've looked in all my Stedman references, Vera Pyle, as well as Google.  Nothing has come up.  Hope you might have these terms written in somewhere.  If you know your reference source, please state.  Thanks. 

Not my cup of tea these terms, kind of new to me. 

Is vanco a lab term?

Also s/l "troth"??

thanks much!
