PEC Table

"T" needs to be capitalized, sorry.
Not PEC Table
Subject: Not PEC Table

The a-b-l-e was clear and I understood what the physician meant in the context of what he was talking about....just not sure how to type it. He meant that he was not able to PEC the patient but he didn't say it that way and since this is verbatim account I was trying to figure out how to correctly type what he said. PEC is an abbreviated psych term used in patients that are emergently committed. I'm not sure exactly what the abbreviation stands for but I think it is Physician's Emergency Certificate. I wound up putting PEC-able. Will be interesting to see any followup on this one if I get any.

Big Chick table
Subject: Big Chick table

In Stedman's Equip Words, under table, I do see Chick tables, including CLT operating table, Chick-Langren table, and Chick surgical table. I suspect but can't prove that "big Chick" would be a slang term, but I have worked in the OR, and it sounds like operating room slang to me.

It's correct.

P2. She had 2 pregnancies resulting in live births.

G11 (2-0-8-2).
11 pregnancies including current one.
2 live births
0 preterm births
8 abortion/miscarriage
2 living children

The first and last 2 in (2-0-8-2) are the same children, plus 8 miscarriages/AB equal 10 pregnancies. If patient is currently pregnant that makes 11 pregnancies, thus G11.

Surgical question.
Subject: Surgical question.

Okay here are the procedures...


1.  Repair of FDP tendon.


2.  Repair of one fascicle laceration of the ulnar digital nerve.


3.  Repair of pulley tendon.


4.  Radial digital neurolysis (indicated given the ulnar digital nerve partial laceration.)


5.  Repair of A4 pulley.


I am then hearing in the narrative summary:


The tendon was repaired with a modified Kessler suture.  This was somewhat compromised by the skiving cut angled distally with minimal tendon at the insertion for the repair.  However, adequate tissue was apparently purchased.


Purchased is the word I am questioning??
