On an orthopedics note:
He has a positive (s/l meister or myster?) sign when the patient is supine with the shoulder adducted.
I've checked the Internet, my Stedman's word book, an ortho website that is usually helpful... nothing at all so far! /:
Any ideas, please throw them at me!

Can't tell what's being said. First it sounded like folate positive, then foleen or poleen. Ack! Whatever it is, it showed up in office visit exam and again in hospital. ...
Everytime he does an exam for someone after a knee replacement he says:
"Range of motion is stable. (?) is intact. The calf is supple and nontender."
It sounds like (caution???). I am sure that is not it, but that is the closest s/l.

OK.....
It's an orthopedic chart note. Patient has a chief complaint of hip pain.
Dictated: He has a negative [s/l fair, fairs, varus?] sign, a negative fabere sign.

Thank you in advance for your help and ideas!

I am wondering would it make sense to say "She had some tenderness with palpation "near the border" of the patella. Or would it be better to type "She had some tenderness with palpation of the knee "above" the patella." I am not sure what I am hearing.
Thanks.

Thanks for any help! ...

A couple of things I just cant understand, this DR sounds like he is drunk this morning!
"status post left s/l amelano total hip arthroplasty for AVN with collapse"
"internal and external range of motion over the s/l sick or sit joint is quite benign" Patient received an injection into the SI joint, so I am wondering if he is saying SIC joint. Is the sacroiliac joint abbreviated in this way sometimes? Cannot reference that.
