Here is a little bit of that link.
â€Â¢Blood pressure cuffs are placed bilaterally on the upper arm (brachial pressure), and at the ankle just above the medial malleoli.
â€Â¢Using the ultrasound transducer locate the arterial Doppler signal distal to the blood pressure cuff. The Doppler signal from the brachial artery is used to obtain the arm pressure, and the Doppler signal from the Dorsalis pedis and Posterior tibial ateries are used to obtain the ankle pressure.
â€Â¢At each location, the blood pressure cuff is inflated about 20 to 30 mmHg above systolic pressure (the audible arterial Doppler signal will disappear).
â€Â¢The blood pressure cuff should be slowly deflated, noting the pressure at which the audible arterial Doppler signal returns.
â€Â¢The ankle pressures are recorded using the Doppler signals from both the Dorsalis pedis and Posterior tibial arteries.
This is a rheumatology note. The doctor is dictating lab results.
"ANA negative. DNA positive at s/l ten nine, considered indeterminate"
My question is, how is this s/l ten nine result transcribed? 10/9? 10:9? 10(9)? Anyone?
Thanks in advance! :) ...
I almost sent a report to QA. The only reason I didn't was because it was a high line count document and I couldn't risk the possible submission rate due to its high line count. Not very wise choice of how to grade the submission rate MQ. I don't like sending a document to the client with blanks, but there comes a time when self protection kicks in. PM likes the FTR low QA submission rate. We will see how PM likes it when the clients starting noticing ...

Hi,
The doctor is talking about a patient with a neck swelling and he says the following: "She had an MRI that showed what appeared to be a lymph node that was 2-cm in CRANIOCOLUMN and about 1-cm in AP dimension."
It's the word in all caps that I'm having trouble with. The doctor was speaking clearly and not too fast, but I'm having difficulty figuring out what the word should be.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I took Transcend transcription test Sunday on the MTtest site. Anyone know how long they usually take to give results. It says 5 days, but I was wondering if they are usually quicker than that or not. I am anxious to know how I did because the eye consultation report was the only one that was difficult for me. I had some blanks on that one. ...
