Help with s/l "de jed" gait - BoBo


Posted: May 14, 2010

I have a sentence in assessment:

She has chronic pain syndrome related to prior fracture and lumbar de jed gait.

He is pronouncing it kinda like dee' jed

most likely - DJD

as in degenerative disk disease

sorry I think he meant to say DDD - as in

[ In Reply To ..]
degenerative disk disease, but he misspoke and said DJD

DJD does not need to be a misspeak - degenerative Joint Disease - BoBo

.

Yes I was considering that-DJD but the way he pronounced - BoBo

[ In Reply To ..]
the end of it - like the name JED makes me wonder am I missing something. And I don't really see "DJD gait" on the net.

are you hearing "antalgic gait"? - elaine

[ In Reply To ..]
ambulating so as to avoid pain.
Not antalgic-s/l right on "Dee jed" - BoBo

guess I have to go with DJD gait.
Sincere thanks all!

Gait testing is part of the neurological examination and should therefore go under that heading.  From my perspective, healthcare document integrity should hold sway over account specs or doctor preferences.  Too many doctors think all that matters is what they say or how they interpret what is said, which is total bunk.  If that were true, we would all just start typing melanotic stools every time one of these medical geniuses dictates that because certainly there isn't a do ...
