it is a true *discrepancy* so FLAG IT....
Subject: it is a true *discrepancy* so FLAG IT....


discrepancy
Subject: discrepancy

While Stedman's Equipment words has it as MediPort, that spelling does not go through Stedman's Medical Spellchecker.  It only accepts it as Mediport.  That is the spelling I have always used and I've never been corrected.  MediPort with that spelling is a company that makes medical imaging display devices.
Discrepancy Marker
Subject: Discrepancy Marker

I would put in a discrepancy marker at the "second" mouthwash part of the sentence and send it to be reviewed.
it's a true discrepancy because MD spelled it...
Subject: it's a true discrepancy because MD spelled it...

QA marker, reason being *discrepancy* and then in the QA/QC comment box you need to type what the discrepancy is (keeping it as short as possible)..."MD spells Zelexia, I think he means Celexal, hence true discrepancy"
Perhaps Galeazzi sign, limb length discrepancy
Subject: Perhaps Galeazzi sign, limb length discrepancy

I had to send it in with 2 blanks.  Maybe it was one of the "made up words."

I'm thinking that too. He might be saying something to the effect that the pt needs to step up, get going, finally agree to have this test performed. Thanks for the help
Definite r sound
Subject: Definite r sound

Nope I don't hear "lymphs" at all.  There is a definite "r" sound at the start of the word.  Sounds like "run" or "ran", but that doesn't make sense.

Subject: Hmm...perhaps. She even says it a second time in exactly the same way. TRI-SKAVY. Definite "E" sound a the end. :^(


Not cock or cockup, definite "l" sound in there. SM

I was not sure about Nasonex.  Since I have no work until 9 AM and I get up early, I try to help people with only the terminology I know.  Otherwise I do not post.  I'm sorry I could not answer your question of Nasonex, but like I said, that is the only thing that comes to mind.  I looked in my drug books and found nothing other than that.  I looked in my ENT book as it has drugs listed and again nothing.  I have done a lot of research for you, be a little more appreciative.  Sounds like I got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning.  Good luck with your search.  Perhaps someone else can help you and that is your best bet when people start getting on.

PET scan wiht cortex with prominent anterior s/l *singulet* hypometabolism. Definite T at end. sm
Subject: PET scan wiht cortex with prominent anterior s/l *singulet* hypometabolism. Definite T at end. sm

The FDG-PET scan is classic textbook for frontotemporal dementia and confirms this clinical diagnosis with a high degree of diagnostic certainty.  The patient has severe bilaterally symmetric frontal hypometabolism. This includes both lateral and mesial portions of the cortex with prominent anterior *singulet* hypometabolism.  There are lesser degrees of anterior temporal hypometabolism but by far frontal lobes are more affected. There is also slight decrease in left parietal cortex with relative sparing of primary motor sensory cortex.

I have a name that I can't understand in the document anyway (person's last name) and I can't find it to verify spelling - so it's got to go to QA anyway, I come back here and post if/when QA gets it in case someoen else ever has it. TY for those that tried looking also.

Doc may have meant take 2 tablets in the morning and said the q just as a habit. I would certainly question having to take Lexapro at 2 a.m. In my opinion, don't guess - flag it.

Seems obvious he meant ACL.

Subject: Should I flag this

During CBC doctor says "counts of 7.7" Later in the sentence he says white count of 11,900. Would he be referring to RBC and should this be flagged for clarity????? It's unclear to me but then everything he says is. Thanks for your help.
sounds like you'd better flag it to me.

When I got to the exam, she only weighs 111 lbs, so that makes me even more concerned that he just got lazy and just said "5" because he definitely didn't say 0.5 or even .5, it was just 5. I hesitate on questioning things that could be borderline, I always worry about them getting huffy if I dare to suggest they might have said something wrong, especially if what they said was what they meant, but then I think, I work at home in another state and wouldn't know him from a hole in the ground, what's he going to do, come to my house?!?!?
