RIGHT LOWER EXTREMITY EXPLORATION SAPHENOUS VEIN HARVEST LEFT LEG REVERSE SAPHENOUS VEIN GRAFT TO SUPERFICIAL ARTERY RIGHT LEG FASCIOTOMY ANTERIOR AND POSTERIOR COMPARTMENTS RIGHT LEG.

If they are to be listed:

1. RLE exploration with saphenous vein harvest.
2. Left leg reverse saphenous vein graft to superficial artery.
3. Right leg fasciotomy, anterior and posterior compartments of right leg.

It sounds like dictator just ran everything together. This is how I would type it, but I'm not entirely sure about #1 with the exploration, sounds like they would do an exploration to look for the saphenous vein. Well, I hope this helps somewhat. :P

Hi all, There is a discrepancy with the proper use of this - can anyone help? Some at my work are saying it should be bilateral lower extremities, whereas others think it is bilateral lower extremity since the "bilateral" implies that it's plural and hence no need to say "lower extremities." I've seen it both ways, but the more that I think about it the more I'm getting myself confused. Any input would be greatly appreciated! ...

unnecessary blank. This is before I ever even start to listen to the report... In the medication list: _____ 0.4 mg sublingually p.r.n. chest pain. NOW, I don't care how badly the dictator butchered the word, it is OBVIOUS what this blank should be even WITHOUT listening to the dictation. Any MT worth a dime, would be able to deduce what the doctor was saying. There is more to this job than simply typing what you hear! ...
