Rad words/2 blanks 1 report
Subject: Rad words/2 blanks 1 report

Radiologist is saying what sounds like "Fluid is seen within the s/l entercies of the mesentery." The other word in the same report is: "High density within the dependent portion of the stomach surrounded by contrast measuring 36 Hounsfield units could reflect s/l embezel (2nd e with long e sound), blood products, or food particles."


Thanks so much... Saved me from having to send this to report to QA with four blanks...

Unless treatment in the report indicates those conditions are present, would just leave blanks. nm

... this is too much  Years ago I used to work for a microfilming company, where they microfilmed medical records.  I was working on MP cards from the late 1980s/early 1990s and came across a doctor named Dr. Slaughter -- I thought no way would this guy be my doctor.

BLANKS
Subject: BLANKS

is it okay to put many blanks throughout the document if I'm not exactly sure what he is saying and some things he says make absolutely no sense? (sometimes 2 per paragraph in places) Is it okay to put a blank so he checks that word to make sure its right? these are 9 page long psych reports. It's not cut and dried medical terms and phrases. I'm thinking I should put blanks just to make sure it's right instead of typing what i think he is saying. what do you do
?
blanks
Subject: blanks

I agree with the other post.  I have leaving blanks, but sometimes you have to.  You absolute cannot guess at something.  It is better to leave a blank than to guess, otherwise it is a bad reflection on you as an transcriptionist to try to guess and then have it be wrong.

Oh my goodness. Cut the girl a break.
Subject: Oh my goodness. Cut the girl a break.

She's new.  She's already stated that.  She's trying to do a good job.  I don't think the answer is to kick someone when they are down.  She probably has received very resourceful information here as most are willing to help newbies.  Give the girl a chance!   She's not asking a s/l or asking the board to take her test for her, she's just feeling a little frustrated.
