S/L "bubbogram regarind right-to-left shunt" - anon


Posted: Mar 15, 2010

please help, don't want to have to QA

Could be "bubblegram" - unofficial term - je suis MT

[ In Reply To ..]
When looking for certain kinds of cardiac defects (PDA, septal defect, etc.), a bubble study is sometimes used for diagnosis. I've heard this called a "bubblegram", but don't know that it's a "real" word. You may consider putting it in quotes, as here.

A saline solution is shaken in the container to create bubbles, and then injected; if there is a cardiac defect like a hole, causing shunting (diversion of blood from one area to another), the bubbles, which can be seen on ultrasound, help to make that clear.

Are There Any Left?
Jun 04, 2014

Are there any companies left that either transfer files by FTP or similar and leave you alone to do your work as long as it is in TAT?  I work at home due to my anxiety.  Have a position with a company that is trying to start some kind of group thing where you have someone hovering over you while you work or you are supposed to be the hoverer for someone else, which might be okay for some people who like working with others.  I have never been able to work well with people.   ...

I hit the ceiling last week and quit after 12 years with MQ part-time.

I Left WMX, And I'm Glad...
Sep 25, 2010

So... I worked for WMX for 3 years (after MQ for 7), then I left to work for the local school system for a year and a half. I got laid off due to state budget cuts. My former manager from WMX took me back but said I had to work third shift -- maybe not permanently -- no promises. I worked my *#% off for 6 months, almost to the day. It wrecked my sleep patterns, my personal life, everything... but I needed the money and benefits, so I did it. Finally, my account went through the ISR conversi ...
