Cardiac cath - lesions - sm - sammypot
Posted: Jun 26, 2010
Doing an H&P. Patient had an EKG, stress test, and cardiac cath. According to the patient she had no s/l "symtable" lesions?
Thank you
syncopal, maybe; not sure about lesions. - n/m
[ In Reply To ..]n/m
Not on a cath. - s/m
[ In Reply To ..]You can't just use a word because it sounds like the s/l word; it has to make sense in the context of the question.
To the OP: Are you sure that is what you are hearing or is the MD stumbling/hem-hawwing? Could it possibly be a stentable lesion; in other words, a lesion that could be stented?
it makes sense if referring to ECG. The s/l is in a new sentence; - does not say which test it refers to.
[ In Reply To ..]I do not Just Use A Word .... think before assuming next time.
Still would not be a syncopal lesion. - s/m
[ In Reply To ..]They are all tests related to cardiac status. While an arrhythmia may cause syncope, they are not referred to as syncopal lesions, much the same way as a tumor may cause dyspnea, but you wouldn't see the tumor on x-ray and call it a dyspnea lesion.
.... which is why I said, Not Sure About Lesions, in case OP - heard that word wrong.

Then how about symptoms of adhesions. - s/m
[ In Reply To ..]Based on the information given, the logical progression of going from the list of cardiac testing the patient had done, and the common findings on said tests, stentable still makes the most sense in this context. And I also do not think a syncopal lesion is a 'real' thing, any more than my example of a dyspnea tumor is.
which is why I said Not Sure About Lesions .... thinking OP - heard Syncopal Events. n/m
[ In Reply To ..]n/m
so: according to the patient she had no stentable lesion. - does that make sense?
[ In Reply To ..]hmmm
I'll vote for that one - see mess
[ In Reply To ..]But the pt probably said that there were just little ones and/or ones that they couldn't fix.
Stentable lesions it is! - sammypot
[ In Reply To ..]I e-mailed the P.A. who does the H&Ps and she said it is stentable.
I thank everyone for your input and am sorry it caused a conflict for some of you.
