abbreviation: p with a line over it?
Subject: abbreviation: p with a line over it?

Hi! I'm doing some transcribing from a doc's handwritten notes (ugh!) This is probably a standard abbreviation/symbol but I don't know how to look it up on google. I'm guessing it's something like recheck or follow up based on the context. Help!


 


Thanks, Sarah

Title of procedure:  A 24-hour pH probe study.


Then we pulled the probe 2 inches above the level between the acidic and non-acidic line and then we taped it and anchored it and the baby started the breast-feeding right away after the probe placement.

...Dictator simply gives visual acuity statistics in prior sentence, then states "The ________ visual field exam is intact." I got two of these reports one right after another, first time ever doing this dictator or this specialty. While researching for the second time I actually waited to get the detail report on the prior chart so I could see what QA had entered - waste of time! They left it blank too.

Of course this dictator also lists drugs like "Actone" (probably Actonel) and grossly mispronounced several others, so who knows? Motalakian, tularakian....weird!

I agree, please do not post a response if you are going to be rude about it.  This board should be about giving positive feedback and not criticism.

questioning whether either was 1 word, but if they had 2 separate meanings; i.e.; patellAfemoral versus patellOfemoral.  I've seen it written both way on a Google search


From what I've just been reading, patellAfemoral syndrome relates more to knee conditions with: cartilage damage; menisci, ligament and capsular damage; a sequelae after patellar fracture, dislocation or subluxation; sequelae after knee surgery; quadriceps tendinitis; iliotibial band friction syndrome; pre-and infrapatellar bursitis; and pesanserinus bursitis. 


Thanks again for your interest.

Tx for trying, I appreciate it.  I have slowed this Dr. down and, of course, it just makes it worse trying to listen to it like that. = )

I ended up sending to QA as this doc mispronounces meds (and procedures) all the time, so not sure if he was mangling a common med, or if there's a new treatment. Thanks for trying, though.
