Dental surgery,s/l "Ferret" throat pack" - couldusesomehelpplease


Posted: Sep 20, 2014

It's not often I do a dental surgery and it sure sounds like he is clearly saying "Ferret" throat pack at the beginning of the surgery.  All I seem to come up with in searching is real ferret dental information.  Anyone out there ever heard of "Ferret" throat pack for dental surgery? 

Nevermind, QA took the blank out. Dr. must have - misspoke NM
