would * muscular * distention make sense?  What muscles?  I have never heard of muscles being distended in a neck exam.  That may not mean anything as I am sure I have not heard of everything in the world of MT.


Could it be * vascular * distention?  as in no vessels being distended, such as the jugular? 


oh well, you have probably sent off the report by now.....

I googled the image for Coversite, and on the packaging, it said CovRSite. I suppose either spelling would probably be okay, but I would feel safer using what is on the box.

Must be hyper then if they're putting on aspirin.  Glad you figured out what to do.  Just wanted to let you know that my oncology book does have hypocoagulable as a word and every place probably has their own terminology for things, bleeding studies, coagulopathy workup, etc. etc.   Let us know how it turns out if you find out...

Is your patient a male? There are male sounds and female sounds. sm
Subject: Is your patient a male? There are male sounds and female sounds. sm

Male sounds are shaped differently than female sounds. Obviously, male sounds being longer. They are used to dilate the urethra in order to facilitate the passage of stones or perhaps JJ stents etc. They come in different diameters ie..18FR, 20FR etc. Hope this helps.

to me KEY sounds like Q more than T....sm
Subject: to me KEY sounds like Q more than T....sm

I have known T-wave and Q-wave - s/l *key* may be either Q or T.....is this an ESL dictator? 


Also, in an EKG, as I know it, the leads are in Roman numerals....leads I, II, and aVF (for example). 


I WOULD, however, blank the Q or T - because key/tee k/q sounds.  It could be either/or and I would blank it....but, of course, this is from yesterday, and the report probably already went back.  *lol*
