Thanks Grace. They have me stumped as well. The doctor didn't seem to change his mind at all in this section of the report, and the only other thing he mentions about hypertension is: A history of hypertension with treatment on dyazide daily. In the report the first and second phrases are actually combined, so I've revised them a bit.

1. Past Medical History: A transient ischemic attack, [s/l a critizens that time with aspirin]. Appendectomy in the [s/l 3-D] and [s/l Cs]. Tonsillectomy.

2. Impression: Secondary [s/l dientness] hypertension.

Her PMH is hypertension, CHF, dementia, depression, osteoarthritis, diverticulosis, left hip fracture and she is in the ER for vomiting.  She is hypotensive & saturating 84%.  Her other PSH is hyesterectomy & thyroidectomy.  Other than that, I haven't a clue yet.  Still typing.  The PA is ESL which could be a factor, but I've been typing him for years and he clearly says TUD surgery. 


Thanks for your help.

Thought I should follow up in view of the additional posts below. sm
Subject: Thought I should follow up in view of the additional posts below. sm

While the gastrocnemius and soleus are 2 separate muscles, they come together in a common insertion to form the Achilles tendon, hence the frequent references to the "gastrocsoleus complex." The term "gastrocsoleus" would not be seen in Grey's because the information deals with the anatomy of each muscle individually, but that does not mean the two cannot be referred to and transcribed in the above manner.

Stedman's shows it as "gastrocnemius-soleus complex" while HPI Orthopedic Words and Phrases makes a reference to "gastroc/soleus." I have typed it as one word for many years and have never seen any QA objection to it. The bottom line will be, if your particular company or account has a preference, then go with that. In the absence of such a stated preference, however, it is acceptable to transcribe "gastrocsoleus" when dictated. Some will view it perhaps as slang or whatever while others will see it as merely constructing a medical term as done within the acceptable parameters of medical terminology for the purpose of referencing anatomical structures that share a point of commonality.

This is one of those like harmonic scalpel.  There are several different manufacturers of a "hemovac," but only Bard (I believe) has it trademarked.  So, what I do, is I only capitalize it if the manufacturer name preceeds it in the dictation.  Anyone out there who may have a definitive answer, please share!  Thanks!
