Hard 25 of Solu-Medrol
Subject: Hard 25 of Solu-Medrol

Hi, everyone.

I'm transcribing a report in which the doc says "Patient had a hard 25 of Solu-Medrol." At least I think that's what she said. Has anyone heard of this construction used before? I have no background info on this since it's an addendum to a report dictated earlier.

Sorry I don't have more info.

Thanks.

Does this make sense? Gastric bypass, sm
Subject: Does this make sense? Gastric bypass, sm

I cannot confirm this "type" of trocar. It does not s/l "Veirs"-type trocar to me.

An incision was made above and to the left of the umbilicus, through which a #5/12 Visiport US Surgical trocar was inserted under direct vision into the peritoneal cavity. This was followed by placing another #5/12 trocar in the left upper quadrant. Another #5/12 trocar was placed in the epigastric region to the right of the midline. Another #5/12 trocar _____**s/l "varices"-type trocar was placed between the supraumbilical and the left upper quadrant trocar site. The abdomen was insufflated, and all the trocar sites were placed under direct vision.
