Abdomen is soft with "two" bowel sounds. - mls
Posted: Apr 25, 2010
Patient has SOB and now renal insufficiency.
In PE, doctor says, what sounds like, "Abdomen is soft with two bowel sounds." The rest is very clear, just never heard it dictated as "two bowel sounds" before. Does "two" sound right? Thank you in advance.
positive - anon
[ In Reply To ..]could the dictator be cutting off the first part of the word positive?
I think "true" bowel sounds - mls
[ In Reply To ..]No, it doesn't sound cut off at all. Thank you for your reply.
It's really clear, and I think she is saying "true" bowel sounds. I did finally find on google that on exam, doctors will listen to differentiate between other splashing or gurgling sounds to hear "true" bowel sounds.
Thanks again.
I get "bowel sounds x4" a lot...4 quadrants in the abdomen - ***

Bowel Sounds
Apr 22, 2010
Can anyone offer some different words to describe bowel sounds on the physical exam? I've looked online and the ones I've found (normal, present, active, positive) just don't sound like what the doctor is saying. Of course he sounds like he's turning away & speeding up his words when he says whatever it is he's saying, so it could be anything, but it sounds like it starts with an "n" and has a t sound in it and is possibly two syllables. Any ideas? ...

Small-bowel Versus Small Bowel
Jun 08, 2015
I've always just used "small bowel," but then noticed most put "small-bowel," I assume to differentiate it as being part of the intestine as opposed to a small, or little bowel. Okay, that makes sense, so I stated hyphenating small-bowel. However, I just got marked off by QA for putting in a hyphen! No matter what you do or don't do, you're screwed! I do believe they just look for ways to antagonize so you'll never feel appreciated. ...

I am curious if anybody has had any experience with this company whether applying or working for them. I find it disturbing that the school I graduated from lists them as one of the possible employers to apply for work since they hire new grads. I applied a few days ago, and they said I didn't have the amount of experience they were looking for. I have 2 years experience doing family practice reports plus just graduated recently. I would have thought I qualified. This is so discouraging. I ...
