Whoever posted it, could you re-post it? There must be some error in what was posted before because I cannot get it to link up to any site. Thanks!

Subject: "wise" is actually a suffix and perfectly...sm
acceptable. Cardiacwise is used all the time. Hate it, don't do it myself, but it is acceptable. Every doc I've ever transcibed for has used it. It's even in the Stedman's spellcheck.

Prefix - re
Can someone help me with the general "re-" prefix rule? I tend to always hyphenate RE in front of all words, but, I don't think that is always right. If there is a website someone can point me to, it would be appreciated. TX

Subject: BOS 2 says re as a prefix does not need a hyphen...sm
However I must say that I use my judgement. A lot of times it improves clarity by using the hyphen. In this case, I think I would do re-dose.

Hi. I do quite a bit of OP notes with lots of deliveries and surgeries for OB/GYN. I do agree with the previous post that those books would be extremely helpful, but I totally understand being strapped for cash (single mom with three kids here). I thought this website might offer you some help until things start to get a little better for you. You will find links here for just about everything.
I hope this helps. Good luck with everything and congratulations on your upcoming wedding

Website for transcription
Subject: Website for transcription
Does anyone remember a website (something "Hazel"?) that had phrases that might be used in transcription? I transcribe for a doc that uses a lot of phrases such as "tincture of time," and since he's sometimes hard to understand, I thought this website might help me. There were other topics at this website like a list of slang words that might be used in patient records. I've used Google, but can't seem to find it. I went to that website a very long time ago, so it may not even still exist.
I'm a bit ashamed to admit that in my 40+ years of life and 23+ years of transcribing, I had never heard the phrase "tincture of time", or some of the other phrases this doctor uses!
Thanks!

I've added it to my favorites. I appreciate the info on that site. Unfortunately, no Braun or Brawn heart surgery term was listed. I think this must be really new or something, or a local thing. I'm assuming it is an eponym.

Elevated or absent acoustic reflex thresholds (ie, >100 dB SPL) for any given frequency may suggest sensorineural or conductive hearing loss, facial nerve disorder, or middle ear disorder. Reflexes usually are absent or cannot be recorded if the patient has type B tympanograms; therefore, acoustic reflexes generally are not tested in these ears.

I don't think there's a way to determine for sure. The fact that "another doctor" said it was ACL doesn't mean that's what they've decided the problem is. On the other hand, he could have switched "ACL" with "LCL" (like they always do right and left, metatarsal/metacarpal, etc.) Don't think there's a way to tell for sure. Sorry!
