Just someone reviewing the history and there was no elaboration other than that.  This particular dictator is killing me tonight...they sound like they are recanting a dream while still out of it themselves...words are trickling out their mouth oh every 15-30 seconds or so and sentences are all malformed, they are yawning, so a 10 minute report is only yielding like 30 lines and I'm falling asleep myself...very frustrating!

HIV file - terms used

I'm working on a file about an HIV patient who also has a MAC infection.  Under the "IMPRESSION", the dictation sounds like.  Situation further complicated by disseminated MAC infection which led to s/l INCESNAL obstruction due to severe s/l MACROLIDED lymphadenitis.  Improving s/l TEKEXIA.


Any help anyone could give me with any of those terms would be appreciated.


Thanks


 


Tricky terms
Subject: Tricky terms

If you keep a notebook with alphabetical tabs, you could make yourself a heading under SIGN, and you could also enter the word under all letters it might be pronounced as.  That's what I used to do.  Saved a lot of time in the long run, especially when you don't have enough information about the patient's problem to know what system or body part they are checking.

HELP WITH DERM TERMS!
Subject: HELP WITH DERM TERMS!

I have 2 dermatology - I am usually not a derm girl, so any help is MUCH appreciated.


Assessment:  Nevus s/l: roo-let-ee s/l: tip-e-er midabdomen.  (Nevus ruletti tipiar midabdomen)?? AND:


s/l: Dermatified (or dromatified) broma right shin.  She uses this phrase in a previous sentence:


On his right shin he has superficial change that appears like a dermatified broma; however, it is not as nodular beneath the shin, but it is definitely excoriated or irritated on the surface. 


I just cannot find any info on these two - sorry this is so long.  I am covering for someone and would prefer not to send to the editor!!  TIA
