In Reply to: trapezius? - MT50

Subject: Thanks for the suggestion. sm

It was really unclear.

It may have been trapezius, but I looked at it from every angle I could, thinking he may have been saying TM - for teres minor --

So I finally gave up and did the safe thing...QA!

Thanks.

of "stable" seemed like that might be right. Slowing it way down, I can clearly hear "currently appears acceptable." You steered my thoughts in the right direction. Thank you again.

I don't really have any suggestions for your missing words, but I do have a few general suggestions. 


Are the terms in parenthesis the ones you don't know?  If they are, put s/l in front of it (s/l= sounds like), and then do your best to type what you are hearing phonetically.  Sometimes it also helps people figure out the missing words if you can share as much about the physical condition of the patient that you know. 


Good luck with your training!


my suggestion.
Subject: my suggestion.

The patient had something in his eye. The eye was numbed with ophthalmic phenacaine, and also, the eye was stained with fluorescein and checked with blue light.
Thanks for your suggestion
Subject: Thanks for your suggestion

I think that is what he means but is clearly spelling with a P. Guess this is one for QA. Too bad for me that he mentions it several times in the report.

Thanks for the suggestion!
Subject: Thanks for the suggestion!

You are probably right and the doctor is misprouncing the word. I still hear a K and X sound so I shall leave a blank just in case being that I do not have a firm diagnosis to match it up with. Thanks for your help!

Maybe meant to say "equal to the contralateral side" and accidentally started to say contralateral and then backtracked?

This could very possibly be the word "metaphor."  Suggest listening again and looking it up to see if it fits.

I really appreciate. I have been banging my head against the wall trying to figure this one out. It sounds like the "five hood" could be one word. Anyway, thanks again!

I would not put a comma after supination because the phrase following is not an independent clause.

Thanks for the suggestion. It has too much of an "ee" sound. I appreciate the help though.

My suggestion on this . . . sm
Subject: My suggestion on this . . . sm

""The superficial femoral artery was then dissected free with the dissection preceding more proximally,exposing the profunda and the common femoral artery with dissecting it using sharp dissection to completely expose it so that an umbilical tape could be passed around the SFA.""


Here's the way I would do this:


""The superficial femoral artery was then dissected free with the dissection proceeding more proximally, exposing the profunda and the common femoral artery, dissecting it using sharp dissection to completely expose it so that an umbilical tape could be passed around the SFA.""


** I took out the word ""with"" because it sounds awkward and the word ""preceding"" I believe should be ""proceeding"", and then with the 2 commas.


I hope this helps!

I would change the units of insulin to 10 and 20 instead of using ten and twenty. Maybe doc is saying this instead... He has been taking 10 units of Lantus. Since then sugar levels were 90 to 100.
Thank you for the suggestion...
Subject: Thank you for the suggestion...

I listened again and it doesn't sound like gritty. I think it's "cri". I found a couple reports with this same procedure and that word used. I also found the first one, which is "transcervically". Thank you for the suggestion though! :)
Thanks for the suggestion...
Subject: Thanks for the suggestion...

It's actually transcervically. I found an old report with the same type of procedure and she says the same things. I listened again and realized that's what it was. Thank you for the suggestion! :)
I will listen again with your suggestion. Thanks! nm

as to what a doctor MAY be dictating. Doctors make mistakes all the time. It is up to the individual MT to check out the validity of any info they ultimately transcribe. That's what I would do. Any MT who transcribes a "suggestion" should not be working as an MT. ;-)
