A stress echocardiogram was performed at your request in our office on 02/02/10.

At that time, he was exercised on an [?] protocol and on that protocol went 9 minutes and 41 seconds.

His heart rate went from 73 to a maximum of 144 beats per minute. His pressure went from 110/74 to 128/74. He was completely asymptomatic and stopped because of leg fatigue. He has resting ST-T wave changes, which became somewhat more prominent with exercise. I am more concerned, however, with the fact that he developed PVCs with stress, including multiple ventricular couplets at peak stress.

I know what that s/l and it's not that. It's a modified Bruce protocol, but I can't understand the last part. Thanks anyway.

For those who work with echo dictation - from what I understand, it's useful for straight transcribing, but does it work in VR? I'm thinking of investing in it, but can't understand how it would be useful in a VR program, which is where everything will be in just a few years. I would think it wouldn't work in a non-Word program since you can't cut and paste, and even if it did, you'd be editing twice. Thanks for any info! ...

I quit my job due to health issues and my stress level has gone way down. I worked for 8 years here and it was okay. There were tough times, but it was mostly okay because my TSM/CCM left me alone but were accessible if needed. They answered my emails and phone calls (even though there were about 5 or so different ones through the years). It was just aggravating when good accounts would go to ASR. But, I don't have to worry anymore. Hope things get better ...

No more microscopic QA dissection for me. My new plan is to shoot the job full of blanks and send it in - far less stressful for sure. Each and every time I hear something that I am not 100% sure of - they get a blank. This is not now nor was it ever MY personal problem. Today I'm quite tired of being penalized for someone else's inability to dictate clear enough to perfectly discern what was said. No more cleaning up sentences either. QA: Verbatim you want? Verbatim you get. ...

I finally got to the point I hated time for work. I went through 2 buyouts and it just seemed to get worse. I have watched QA people busted down due to not getting enough lines per hour, which is impossible when there's not enough work, and when most of the acute care work was 100% listens. I got ONE raise in 7 years yet the duties kept piling on and found out some were making 4.00 an hour more than me in lower positions. On days off you were expected to join meetings no m ...

I've found a wonderful way to reduce stress while working long hours. It reduces dramatically the times I've wanted to choke some of the bad dictators I seem to constantly get. It's called ShoutCast and it's free internet radio. You don't need to download anything if you have WinAmp on your PC. It plays nonstop, no commercials, etc. I keep the volume very low at 1 or 2 on the WinAmp player so it plays in the background through my headset and ...
