I too love Google but be V_E_R_Y careful w/google
Subject: I too love Google but be V_E_R_Y careful w/google

Google is great for retrieving anything faster than the speed of light *lol* - but if the info comes from a nonverifiable medical website, be very wary.  There are a few I trust only...the NIH for one (Nat'l Institute of Health) and the CDC (Center for Disease Control) and a few others out of the government actually.


As for prescription places, I trusted rx.com for far too long, there are many more reliable drug websites out there... medilexicon.com is a great site and to confirm a proper name of a disease or things like that, there is whonamedit.com which, if you write to the site owner, can be added to (I have done some communication with the site owner so this is 100% true). 


When I first started using google in MT work about 8 years ago as google is not that old, (got online 12 years ago, been an MT since 1980), I had looked up Spironolactone, and Google gave the spelling to me incorrectly and (who knew it was wrong?!?!??) I used their spelling and I was wrong. 


So, only advice is be VERY CAREFUL what YOU CHOOSE to use as far as websites go regarding MT/ME work because in the end you're the one responsible....not google.

Please let me know.  I've done a lot of duplex ultrasounds over the past 5-6 years but I am very "aural" when it comes to dictation - once I see "increment" and have that in my mind, I can't think of anything else.   Anyway, I would like to know what it is in case I run across it.


Thanks!

I've spent too much time on it as it is.  I'm overly tired and grumpy anyway from getting up to pee every hour for the last several nights from my own urinary issues.  The NP said I'd have relief today.  What an a**hole.  I'm in so much pain.  He insists it could not be a kidney stone yet I'm peeing massive amounts of blood and blood clots.  I've had a hyster so I know it's not coming from there.  I don't usually wish things on people but I'm so grumpy from lack of sleep and in so much pain right now, I hope he gets one this bad.  Curses!

She says: Upper extremity, right, and rigidity with bright red ***ek-I-nas-ia**.


This is in PE, and she is usually quick with this section and doesn't explain much, so I have nothing else to go off of. This is a geriatric medicine note. Also, it's pretty much verbatim, so this is what is said.


Thanks!

I figure cc is used in a syringe sm
Subject: I figure cc is used in a syringe sm

and mL is liquid can be given through a syringe minus the needle orally.  You will also see this on the measuring cup on top of cough medicine.  cc and mL are measurements equal in quantity.  5 mL = 1 tsp or 5 cc = 1 tsp.  I think the dangerous abbreviations are more for handwritten notes as opposed to transcription.   JMO.

Subject: It is also hard to figure out ...

... because they put this patient on 1 baby aspirin a day, which I thought was to thin the blood. I actually ended up asking a doc at the hospital where I work, and he seemed to indicate that there wasn't really any "hypocoagulable workup" -- it was more like "bleeding studies." There is a "hypercoagulable workup" which is extensively discussed on the net, but this patient with the bleeding may be more a candidate for the bleeding studies. However, from what I have read on the net, the tests that are done for a "hypercoagulable workup" are the ones which are being ordered for this patient. Sigh. I'm going to change it to hypercoagulable, and mark it just in case. Thanks for your input.

Subject: Had to make a table to figure it out.

It's correct.

P2. She had 2 pregnancies resulting in live births.

G11 (2-0-8-2).
11 pregnancies including current one.
2 live births
0 preterm births
8 abortion/miscarriage
2 living children

The first and last 2 in (2-0-8-2) are the same children, plus 8 miscarriages/AB equal 10 pregnancies. If patient is currently pregnant that makes 11 pregnancies, thus G11.
