He sustained a degloving injury to the left dorsum of his hand, with *** facia over the extensor ten - Terri


Posted: Jun 30, 2011

I am not sure if he is saying "physical or visible" fascia.  Which makes more sense? 

probably is visible - sweetgirlsmom

The skin is torn off by the degloving injury and they can now see the fascia.

sometimes you have to picutre it. - anon

degloving of the hand - pulling off the skin like a glove, which would then expose the tissue underneath (that surround the muscle - the fascia).

Visible make sense?

Left Hand Issue
Mar 26, 2014

Have been having a very aggravating issue lately with my left hand.  There is no pain, no numbness, no temperature change issues, but rather a lack of coordination in regards to my left hand pinky and ring fingers only.  When trying to put hands on home keys or use the pinky or ring finger they curl up and I almost have to physically straighten them.  Not sure if started overnight or gradually just gotten worse, but has defiitely been bad for a week or so.  Making me CRA ...

Tech Help - Making A Comma With The Left Hand
Sep 18, 2014

I could increase my speed a lot if I could find some way to make a comma with my left hand.  I'm using my right hand to control the ==> cursor, and I have an ESL dictator who never says "comma" and a POS speech recognition software that never puts in commas, so I have 25 commas per report to put in. Is there any way to designate comma (,) to another key?  I have a Microsoft ergometric keyboard.   Thanks. ...

Dorsa Or Dorsum In This Instance...
Dec 13, 2011

I have a dictator who consistently refers to the "dorsum of both feet" instead of using the plural dorsa.  I haven't changed it yet because he is referring to BOTH feet.  I was thinking that if he said, "dorsum of each foot," this would be correct, but in this case, isn't wouldn't the correct phrasing be "dorsum of both feet?" Thanks for your feedback! ...

Has Anyone Tried This For Back Injury?
Oct 11, 2013

Has anyone tried transcribing from a laptop away from their desk at home, maybe from the couch or in a reclining position while recuperating from a back injury? I recently injured my back. On days off when I'm not sitting in my office chair, I feel much improved. But as soon as I sit down to work, the pain returns like the day I injured it. Even with taking frequent breaks to stand up and walk around, I can barely stand up straight or walk after my shift and feel like I return to square ...

To have the percentage of stuff that goes to QA be a factor in the bonus.  They are just encouraging people to send through stuff that truly is not decipherable (even numbers).  Plus, how fair is it when you have one truly unavoidable blank in a 19-minute report and ALL those lines get counted as having been sent to QA?  Motivating people to send through incorrect reports just could put me over the edge as far as leaving. ...
