Laceration "EMP" repair? - goatgal


Posted: Sep 24, 2010

This particular doctor is notorious for speaking 90 miles a minute and mumbling the entire time and it sounds like he's saying "right thigh laceration, status post 'emp' repair".  Does "emp" sound right?  I can't find it anywhere.  Thanks.

They do something with epinephrine, lidocaine and tetracaine. Maybe he's saying ELT?

Possibly AMP repair, see message - lyn

If patient had prior orthopaeidc surgery, this might apply - Absorbable Modified Polymer (AMPâ„¢). OrthoClotâ„¢ is intended as an absorbable haemostatic system to control bleeding during orthopaedic surgery including Spinal Surgery, Bone Tumour Resection, and Complete Knee Replacement Surgery etc.

Need Help With Hernia Repair
Dec 12, 2011

The preperitoneum was taken down. The hernia was indeed medial to the epigastric vessels. The preperitoneal fat was further reduced. The hernia sac was completely reduced out of that area. A space was then created in the preperitoneum. A 4 x 6 inch Composix mesh was then introduced, secured to the ileopubic tract laterally and then also medially. The peritoneum was then closed over this with additional absorbable tacks. He tolerated this quite well. I'm not finding "preperitoneum" anywhere ...
