GIA stapler
Subject: GIA stapler

The doc is dictating a bowel resection, is using a GIA and then a TA stapler.  Would he be saying a GIA 80, 3.5 stapler, or a GIA 83.5 stapler?  I have been typing is as GIA 80, 3.5 stapler right up until today, when it struck me that I may be wrong.  Help, Anyone?  Thanks!

I apologize for stepping on your toes.  I only posted those reports to get a little help.  I did not post any names of people, places, or anything confidential.


However, I do appreciate your concern.  It sounds to me that probably you are trying to start some type of drama as you are accustomed to doing all over these boards.  However, I am not going to enable that.


Have a nice day.

Subject: a stapler used in a laparoscopic gastric bypass

I'm doing an op note dictated by an ESL and he's referring to a stapler that he's using to create the anastomosis in a laparoscopic gastric bypass.  It sounds something like Acolumn, Ecolint or Acumint stapler.  I'm so stumped and would welcome any hints on how to figure out what the heck he's saying!

Subject: Absolutely document any discrepancies sm

with your QA. This is one of the primary responsibilities of MTs.

BTW, it should be:

left below-knee amputation
right above-knee amputation

If you must type what they say, then left below-the-knee amputation and right above-the-knee amputation.

Multiple-word modifiers must be hyphenated.

Good luck to you in your MT career!!

Stops in a Word Document
Subject: Stops in a Word Document

I was wondering if there was a way to put "stops" so to speak in a word document that is set up as a template.  But, I need to do fill-ins for information with the basics already typed.  I need to add blood pressure, weight, height, etc. in a paragraph that is already set-up in word.  These are clinic letters.  If anyone knows how to help, please let me know.  It will be greatly appreciated!  Thanks!
