Patient had s/l fullcan seizures - starstruck

Posted: Dec 23, 2010

This is a patient with neurologic problems. In the HPI, the doc says: "Patient had s/l fullcan seizures and got treatment for status epilepticus." I don't know what the "fullcan" is. Maybe Vulcan?? (Star Trek moment--yay!) Any neuro help would help save "my* mind...

Thanks in advance.

focal seizures? - Olive

Doc has used terms "focal" and "breakthrough" but... - starstruck

..this really has an "n" sound at the end of the word. Though it is an ESL dictator, so who knows.

thank you, though, Olive!

I know it wasn't so much like your sounds like. - Olive

I've looked up all types of seizures. Sorry. Don't know.

Wish I knew too - starstruck

I have found a couple of sites that list all sorts of syndromes and things like that, but I have yet to run across one that has a long list of seizure types.

If the client profile makes no mention of patient name (yes or no) being left in the report, account does not specify verbatim, is the ADHI/JCAHO directive to type the patient's name or replace with "the patient?" Just checkin'. Am paranoid about everything with the audits these days. ...

Just FYI....I applied to PF about 3-4 months ago. Took the transcription test, thought I did great, never heard a word.

Under the diagnosis, the doc says: 1. Hypokalemia likely due to medication use. Rule out primary s/l hyperolestrionism. Yeah, I know that's wrong. Any electrolyte experts out there? This is total mumbling. I'm really not sure it even begins with "hyper"--could be "hypo" as well. ...
