Cardiology followup - Kendra


Posted: Jun 18, 2013

"She was hospitalized April 9 with ____ with hip fracture with open reduction and internal fixation and then, several days into hospitalization, she developed mild stroke with facial droop."  Sounds like "nonsacable 4".  I have no idea and would appreciate any help.  He says the same word/words later in the report, "Prior history of transient blood pressure drops and ____."  TIA

Here's a long shot....sm - MT

Since doc refers to a hip fracture, it possibly could be nonsyncopal fall ??

not the OP, but I think you're right - great idea (nm)

Yes, ma'am. That was it. - Kendra

Unfortunately, I didn't figure it out until about 4 hours after I turned it in with a blank. :) Thanks for trying for me!

Oh wow... the board looks different. Anyways, I have a term that I have never heard of regarding a woman giving birth and it is talking about the baby's heart. "Fetal heart sounds were in the 130s with ____." She says it again, "Baby's heart rate had _____ and was reassuring throughout her stay." Sounds like "aksels." Any ideas? Thanks! ...

Jun 18, 2010

Well, in trying a couple of your suggestions, I find it did not make a substantial difference.  I found I already try listening ahead and I had been using ctrl M to jump around the report when I need to, but never works for going faster through the actual report because I can't tell what is background gibberish while the dictator is thinking and what might be the dictator.  Leading me to believe it must have a lot to do with the account.  I can never go too far ahead of the d ...

Follow Up Or Followup
Jan 09, 2013

It's always the little things that snag me up.  I know the rules on follow up as a verb  and followup as a noun and adjective, but when a doc says, "CHIEF COMPLAINT:  Follow up acne", does he mean "recheck acne" which would make follow up a verb and thus spelled follow up, or does he mean "here for a followup of acne"? and thus the followup spelling.  What is the general rule on this "shortened" statement? Thanks. ...

I think it is a ridiculous thing to lose points over, but I am INSISTING that the way I typed this sentence is correct:   The patient returned to the cancer center for followup of her metastatic cancer.   Isn't "returned" the verb in this sentence?  I am adamant that followup should be one word here, but I am being told it should be "The patient returned to the cancer center for follow up of her metastatic cancer".  This is making me crazy.  The explanation I r ...

Followup With A Company.

Last night I had a company call me because they were interested in me working for them. I had taken the test about 2 weeks prior. My question is how long should I wait to send a followup email? She sounded like she wanted to get me started ASAP but needed to check with my references first. I keep imagining the worst and thinking my references weren't that great and I won't hear back. Thanks so much for the advice!! ...
