You can have a coronal sulcus of the glans penis. The corona glandis is the widest part of the glans penis, is around the base of the proximal portion. A fold of dark, thin, hairless skin forms the foreskin covering the glans penis.

Active Tuberculosis
To diagnose TB of the respiratory tract, 3 to 5 sputum specimens are collected first thing in the morning on different days when they are most likely to contain the most mycobacteria. If extrapulmonary TB is suspected, samples are collected based upon where in the body the infection is likely to be. Multiple samples of gastric (stomach) washings/aspirates or urine may be collected and submitted to the laboratory. Sometimes cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), biopsied tissue, or other body fluids are also collected.

I have been transcribing over 10 years and am thinking of applying for QA.  Anybody have any similar experience and suggestions/comments on their experiences?  I work for MQ and get paid by the line -- have no idea how they pay their QA - is it by the report, hour or ??  Thanks so much!

I know that does not start with a P but that is usually what they say to avoid, the W position where they sit with knees folded back and feet to the sides. And they tell them to sit in the "indian" position to correct it.

Hi, thanks, that was one of my sounds like that I added to my comments when I sent it in. I guess they call the surgical table the "bed" now, maybe? I still think it is the same as reverse Trendelenburg (from the olden days when I worked in an OR), but I was not there now, right? Thanks and when I find out I'll let you know. Sometimes I feel so old and deaf! (But then again he was not the best "enunciator" on the block either).
