Subject: my main acct is verbatim,

and we are told we can change sentence structure...however, whether i'm told that or not, i correct to proper English, including tenses, etc. Verbatim is never really absolutely verbatim, no matter what anyone says. You must use common sense. The bottom line is to be careful that you never change the intended meaning.

verbatim acct help
Subject: verbatim acct help

General surgeon talking about frozen section pathologic exam of squamous cell carcinoma lesion. First frozen section came back with positive margins so he went back to excise a second specimen which he submitted S/L "on fos" with the new margin up. This is a verbatim account and this dictator is on 100% QA (all reports) since he is so SPECIAL. I referenced the other reports in his MD data base and found "en Fos" which would have been put there by QA before the report was signed off to the hospital. I can't find this anywhere and was wondering if anybody has a clue?

Does this sentence make sense to any of you?  This is a disability and he it sounds like he is saying jaw?  but why would that be under cardiorespiratory?


CARDIO-RESPIRATORY: He has no signs of cardiac abnormalities, no claudication, no chest pain, or numbness of the jaw. 


Could it be something else?  Please give it a try!

On exam, it does appear that the pain has shifted some from the lateral shoulder area up into the trapezius in the main belly. There is a trigger point right in the main belly that recreates almost all of her symptoms.

    My primary acct is a verbatim but am allowed to make grammatical corrections as long as it does not change the meaning. One of my docs dictated *monna releaser*. After getting my laugh for the day, I typed *I am going to release her*....this one was not an ESL. Gotta getta good laugh once in a while to keep sanity....
