No erythema, no increased s/l teeth? - oMT


Posted: May 31, 2012

There isn't much to this dictation other than, "There is no erythema. There is no increased *s/l T or teeth*.

Patient is having their knee examined. Clear speaker, but the T or teeth doesn't make any sense to me. Any ideas? TIA

 

No ideas for what the T is but no increased warmth - Olive

commonly follows the first part.

True, but he is a very clear speaker. Unfamiliar doc :( - oMT

Maybe I should call it a night after this report :-) Thank you, again.

Just Love That Clickity-clack Sound Against The Teeth

Article - Dictation And Transcription Will Be Under Increased Scrutiny

To me this means that the vampire squids (the suits) who live and die for widespread databases will need to figure out how they can make their systems more secure. I think they can't if they continue the road their on. See below for recent article link.  http://www.fortherecordmag.com/archives/122109p10.shtml ...

"There Are No Erythema Or Satellite Lesions"

The person I work for told me I made an error in grammar and that it should read: "There are no erythema or satellite lesions."  I do not see any way this could be correct. I think it should probably say "There is no erythema, and there are no satellite lesions."  Any comments? ...


S/l "endotracheal Tube 70 At 24 Of The Teeth"
Jun 30, 2010

Here's an excerpt to put the confusing line in context: "The airway was initially assessed by Dr. _____, who stated that it was not in the trachea.  After an airway was placed, endotracheal tube 70 at 24 of the teeth was placed.  He visualized it going through the trachea." I tried reading up on endotracheal tube placement procedures and whatnot to try to figure this out (seems like too many things are being placed in addition to the teeth thing), but perhaps my brain is too add ...
