The patient continued to have relapsing left lung atelectasis, but eventually it resolved with vigorous _____.


This is an almost 3-year-old who aspirated a foreign object, went to the ER 3 times and was treated there with inhalers.  Finally they found it on x-ray, removed it, intubated and sedated.  Reactive airway disease is in the diagnoses.

Subject: Actually it is incorrect to

type protime, even when they dictate it. Set your expander to expand protime to prothrombin time because that is truly the correct way to type this on a medical report. That way when they undergo audit it will not come back to transcription who didn't type it with HIPAA correctness. I wish they would educate doctors to dictate things correctly in the first place to avoid all this, but I think even if they did the dictator would still dictate things the way he "thinks" in his head. It is hard to teach old dogs new tricks unless they are transcriptionists. If we don't learn new tricks they will replace us, right?

middleschmertz is incorrect
Subject: middleschmertz is incorrect

yes, internet can be wrong, so have to be careful. Need to invest in medical terminology books, but yet sometimes I find discrepancys in those also.

Sloan's Medical Word Book, under the section of ob/gyn, it has "middle-shmertz" Phonetic for mittelschmerz.

We all have to check and double check. Look in more than one source.

I came back on to read this post because I had given out the info on Lidoderm and wanted to see if the other word had been found. Then I saw LYDERM.

I have been reading the posts above. This "Kathie" person, with the bubble blowing gum head picture, seems to be giving out incorrect information. Hope she is not a QA person.

Example such as Caldwell-Luc thinking that would be for caudal vater syndrome????Where would you get that from?

That is too much guessing going on. If you don't
know, do not answer. Simple as that.
