I-DAM-tee-oh-statin and I-DAM-tee-oh-statin inhibitor levels - jld

Posted: Oct 15, 2011

ESL

While patient was in the hospital, s/l *I-DAM-tee-oh-statin* level was ordered and was undetectable, and s/l *I-DAM-tee-oh-statin* inhibitor level was ordered and the level was 3.6 and elevated.

Thanks in advance!

MAN! Tried to hear that but sounds exactly as I have it & "statin" at end very clear. - jld

A statin is a HMC-CoA reductase inhibitor. So what would be a statin inhibitor? I'm so confused.

But he's definitely saying some kind of statin and then that same statin inhibitor.

Patient was initiated on rituximab so not sure if these results are before or after treatment, good or bad. ?

Dictates this right between sentence where rituximab was initiated and part where patient got better and was discharged. So don't know if they happened in that order. ???

Found this when looking up rituximab:
ADAMTS-13 plasma level determination

OMgoodness!!! Thank you! Thank you! I guess it wasn't statin; it was 13. That fits perfectly! - jld

Guess I couldn't get past the accent. OY!

You definitely deserve a frosty mug for that one! :-D

Thanks, I will have one! - Frosty Mug

You adding the part about rituximab was the last piece to the puzzle. Didn't search further, but statin could still make sense on the end, I think.
Cheers!

Nice work Frosty Mug! - I was the HMG-CoA response. nm

Of transcribing/editing a job goes through before making it back to the client? For example, does it go overseas first and then back to us and we fix what they left behind? Or do we get the job first? Who does the audits...an actual human or is it ran through some program first? I think a lot of what mm does is hidden from us. Would not surprise me. ...

I have been encouraged time and again to test for Tier level II. Yes, I am Tier 1 and like my client and the work so want to stay here, but took a huge cut in pay and now my super says work will be shifting and I may not have work available. Okay, so I took the Tier level II test TWICE--the first time with a bad attitude, but the second time I really took my time and still did not pass (scored 100% on the multiple choice and 96% on the transcription test)...I have been transcrib ...

I've seen something mentioned on here about putting DEP after your username to check how much work there is in the system, and something about someone sending out reports of how much work there is... probably the CCM I guess. I'm newish and I have NEVER seen a report of how much work there is and the DEP thing doesn't work when I try it (it says contact my supervisor for permission). Is my CCM supposed to send out a report of available work? Does anyone know this for sure? I d ...

Patient has HIV and is status post acute kidney injury: He has had no evidence for cryoglobulinemia or hypocomplementemia. It will be interesting to see what his protein has done with improvement in his HIV parameters. As per previous notes, I have not biopsied him. Therefore, I do not know whether he has a high s/l VAN, high s/l VIC, or whether this is diabetic related kidney disease. However, it would not change his management at this time. ...

I just QAd an ILP report that I was only supposed to fill in the blanks, but I saw a major error near the blank, so I did a 100% review.

I checked the travel details of the report and it went through 2 levels of ILP QA before it got to me! Why are we losing our jobs to them? Oh, yeah, the suits make more money.
