UOP? Got a resident who wants to
Subject: UOP? Got a resident who wants to

abbreviate everything - must think she's paying the bill.  Anywho - she's dictating the PE and at the very beginning says:


AF/VSS (afebrile/vital signs stable, I assume) and UOP adequate.  Then goes on with no acute distress, alert and oriented, yada yada yada.


So what exactly is UOP?

Sony BM 820. Kind of pricy but really really the best. I used to type 7 days a week on this baby. Still have it.


 


Another cheaper one is Pearlcorder T100. It is okay but I tended to jerk the light little thing around on my desk. Also the ERASE button is right next to the other ones, so I used to tape a bottle cap over it so as not to reach over and ruin myself!!!!!

DRUG SITES:

http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cder/drugsatfda/index.cfm – this one has a generic list also.

GENERAL DATA BASE INFO SITES ETC:


http://www.fpnotebook.com/index.htm


http://www.emedicine.com/ — this is my personal favorite. A lot of time when you Google a condition, like "diaphragmatic hernia" it will bring up E.medicine.com article. These articles give the alternate names, treatments, etc. Great source.

especially the drugs are listed categorically. For instance, if you heard a drug but couldn't quite get it but knew it was for (for example) Parkinson's disease, you could look it up under "antiparkinsonian drugs." Drake & Drake has a similar book, XRef.

I'd love to use the Internet more but I can only get dialup in my area and it takes waaaaay too long. Books are faster for me.

As far as Sherlock Holmes is concerned, I was more of an Inspector Clousseau.

Later!
