Subject: level or lever A ankle fracture? sm
I found this
Type A: fracture below the ankle joint
Type B: fracture at the level of the joint, with the tibiofibular ligaments usually intact
Type C: fracture above the joint level which tears the syndesmotic ligaments.
I assume it should be level A but sounds like he is definitely saying lever so just wanted to verify that it is correct.
TIA

GTTP level?
Subject: GTTP level?
The doctor states the patient's GTTP level was either 46 or 446. It's hard to tell if she made a mistake and stuttered or if it is 446. I have no idea what the average range would be for this (either in the 40's or the 400's). Also, does anyone know what GTTP stands for?
Thanks!
