Subject: 6 French "raabe" sheath

The doctor spells this out more than once during the report but I've never heard this term before, my medical spellchecker doesn't recognize it, and I can't verify it on Google. Any help would be great!

Following the percutaneous intervention and completion arteriogram of the right external iliac artery, the wires catheters were withdrawn. Please note also just prior to the percutaneous intervention, a full dose of systemic intravenous heparin was given and an ACT was maintained above 200. In addition the short 5 French sheath was changed out over a Magic Torque wire to a long 6 French "raabe" sheath. Following the intervention, the long sheath was then exchanged over the same wire to a short 6 French sheath.

sheath line tenderness??
Subject: sheath line tenderness??

Does this make sense to anyone as part of Physical examination under Neck:  ..demonstrates full range of motion of his neck without pain or "sheath line" pain to palpation?  This definitely sounds like "sheath line" pain to me.  Is there anything I'm missing that would sound like this??
I looked it up to make sure, and a sheath is..
Subject: I looked it up to make sure, and a sheath is..

The carotid sheath is an anatomical term for the fibrous connective tissue that surrounds the internal carotid artery and related structures in the neck.

Who knows. Maybe this is what the dr. is referring to.

At this point, careful carotid endarterectomy was done. It was begun at the common carotid artery. A wood plane was obtained and it was transected proximally and carried towards the bifurcation.
