Subject: has a catch? please help, tia

I am so confused right now. He says patient has a s/l "catch" in the right lower quadrant. is this right? what is that? tia
Maybe it will catch on!
Subject: Maybe it will catch on!

I had to laugh at that one. I like the idea of a single one being called a support "ho"

This is correct but there is a catch..
Subject: This is correct but there is a catch..

if the doc dictates "eleven thirty", then you would type it as 11:30 and make sure you use the digital format throughout the remainder of the report to keep consistency.  (i.e.: The patient had a palpable lump at 11:30 in the right breast and at 1:00 in the left breast.) Do not type 11:30 o'clock (even though some will actually dictate it that way).


If all locations are on the "whole" hour then you do use the format of 11 o'clock.

A 22-gauge long spinal needle was inserted directly into the (s/l-THEP)  joint.  It's not hip.  I'm sure of that.  It sounds like it starts with a TH or an F.  This is for a fusion for a spinal fracture. 


 


THANKS!

And it is quite obvious you dont have ANY patience...so why bother posting? sm
As a newbie I greatly appreciate anyone who is willing to give their time and knowledge to help me, or any newbie, out. What I dont understand is why people with no patience and an obvious knack for being rude come to these boards and post when clearly they have no intention of helping anyone.

Again, I thank all of the "oldies" who offer help and kindness to the "newbies".
