Could anyone help me with a couple of things I'm tring to figure out in this chapter 14 Neurology H&P report ? I am stuck on... She has had an operation to release a tethered cord and also fusion ________ . (sounds like somekind of swan.) She also had medicines revoked potential, which showed abnormal bilateral tibial mass reovke potential in both the normal position and in "Buddha position".

She says this in two places, once in the subjective and once in the plan. S: The patient was last seen for continued follow up due to her history of myoclonic seizures and BNS for intractable seizure activity on 05/18/10. P: I did discuss with the patient that we should check BNS today, she did decline that at this time.

I'm an MT student and I'm struggling with this dictation. it sounds to me like he says "where he underwent a craniectomy, which removed the left subdural bled." However, the MT grading my papers says that bled and bleed are "the incorrect form of the correct word". I thought those were the only 2 forms of the word?? ...

There was felt to be ______ of hemosiderin throughout the large cyst, suggesting prior hemorrhage. (s/l a profrogram/proforgim). I keep listening and cannot grasp. Cannot hear "component." Am pretty sure of the p sound at the beginning, f in the middle, and the m at the end. Only have about 20 minutes before it is due. TIA for any ideas. ...

Anybody know what this stands for? Searching long time. ...

MENTAL STATUS: The patient is awake, alert and generally very anxious, with pressured and thick speech. She is unable to sit still and is very ______ (doc spells it out twice as "akithetic"). I am sure she is trying to relate a word like "akinetic," because the admitting diagnosis was difficulty with coordination and walking, but she clearly spells this out twice as "akithetic." Has anyone else used this word before? ...

I work for a mental facility. Anyone know the correct spelling of what sounds like "choreaothesis?" The hundreds of previous reports I checked have it as "chorea thesis" but I can't find either in any med books. It apparently is a symptom. Could it be 2 specific conditions instead of 1? Thanks. ...

I am picking up a new clinic and I am hoping those of you who have been doing Neuro/Neurosurg might be able to suggest some of your favorite links for these specialties.

Neurology report. Says tenderness in the mid anian region (talking about the head/brain and spells anian). Have seen this before and thought it started with an o but now cannot find. TIA ...

Years back, the name of the service was to be capitalized if they said the patient was seen by Podiatry or the patient was seen by Neurology. But if the patient was seen by the neurology service, it was not capitalized. Why am I being counted off for not capitalizing Neurology Service? It just looks stupid with it capitalized. I feel like I'm dealing with people who don't really know what they are doing. Very frustrating. ...

I have been on this report for 2 days now. I have managed to figure most of it out but I am really lost on one paragraph. After she dictates all the information under Physical Examination she goes into another paragraph describing more of the patient's symptoms. Is there supposed to be heading before that paragraph? Also, below is a few sentences from that paragraph that I just cant make out. Any help would be great. Thanks again. Tone is normal no clog whealing. Degenerative reflexes ar ...

I need some help with a type of seizure. It sounds like "noncommosive," but the nearest thing I can find by googling is "noncompulsive" and I don't know if that really is an actual type of seizure or just a description of a symptom. ACK! I would dearly love to have a report by this Asian neurologist with no blanks for a change! Anybody have an idea? ...

sounds like "cog rearing" ...

I'm just wondering when was the last time any of us took a moment and researched outside of this forum to get a better idea of what is happening with the MT industry? Someone had asked last week for a listing of the largest? MTSOs. I posted regarding the KLAS MTSO study June 2008, but I wonder just how many MTs actually read it and absorbed the information that was made available to them within the free study. There's all the commotion about ...

Did anyone else get the message from Massanotti? What do you think? Also, I went to medquist.com and was struck by the fact that they are marketing front-end dictation systems with SpeechQ, thereby eliminating transcriptionists altogether! I am not surprised, any way to get us out of the picture will make them more money. It just seems odd that they would tell us on one hand that they value us and then on the other try to get rid of us altogether.... ...
