Stress echocardiogram-"oxine dry drop?" - Mary
Posted: Jan 04, 2010
The doctor said the stress echocardiogram did not show any evidence of ischemia and then what sounds like "oxine dry drop" from 99 to 92 with exertion. Any ideas?
Echocardiogram revealed normal left ventricular function with moderate tricuspid regurgitation. No s/l intramural spondys or sprondys was seen.
TIA for any help! ...
Can anyone fill in the blank at the end of the sentence? Sounds like he's saying "rain jewels."

I haven't done an echo in quite a while. Can anyone help with these chamber dimensions? There are two that I'm not sure what he is saying, but I've included the rest for reference. Thanks!

With regards to the right hip, it is also evaluated showing no swelling or deformity. There is significant tenderness to s/l drop palpation over the greater trochanter.

decrease the weight of a line when paying VR. For example, if you edit 2000 lines in a day, is it customary for the company to ask you to multiply that by 0.70 for a total of 1400 lines because they are VR and not straight transcription as well as pay you half your transcription line rate? Does everyone do this? I am finding VR to be much more intense and demanding than straight transcription and this seems like a double whammy to me! ...
Doctor is giving medication list and says: "Erythomycin 0.5 s/l in-shrib-in to right eye." I'm assuming it is drops or ointment but don't know what in-shrib-in might mean and it's said very clearly. Any help would be appreciated. ...
He dictates: Nuclear stress test using s/l rag-oh-DYE-noh-scan ....
He not so helpfully spells it "rageodescan" which is not correct and does not help at all in a search.
Any suggestions are appreciated, thanks. ...
After a Bruce protocol stress test says "It was an appropriate ______ response." Kind of sounds like allotropic which doesn’t make sense to me. THANKS!!

I quit my job due to health issues and my stress level has gone way down. I worked for 8 years here and it was okay. There were tough times, but it was mostly okay because my TSM/CCM left me alone but were accessible if needed. They answered my emails and phone calls (even though there were about 5 or so different ones through the years). It was just aggravating when good accounts would go to ASR. But, I don't have to worry anymore. Hope things get better ...
Or only certain time of the year? With all the NJA the stress of trying to stay FT and get my 40 hours in killing me. It's getting next to impossible to get 40 hours anyway, so I figure I'd go to PT of 30 hours and stop stressing. My CCM says I'll most likely lose my health benefits anyway if I continue not getting my 40 hours in.

Would like anyone's opinion regarding how METS should be typed in reference to a stress test. I have been typing it as METS for yrs and yrs, now on a newer account it was corrected to METs. I've found it both ways when researching. TIA for input. ...
I cannot understand what is being said at the end of this sentence as the doctor stumbles over the word and I don't have much experience when it come to stress test to be able to figure out which word this should be (under procedures). "1. Cardiac stress test. She had normal hemodynamic response to pharmocologic therapy. Clinically negative for ischemia, chest is negative for ischemia, (sensographically) negative for ischemia or infarct." Also, should I make each ischemia ...
No more microscopic QA dissection for me. My new plan is to shoot the job full of blanks and send it in - far less stressful for sure.
Each and every time I hear something that I am not 100% sure of - they get a blank. This is not now nor was it ever MY personal problem. Today I'm quite tired of being penalized for someone else's inability to dictate clear enough to perfectly discern what was said. No more cleaning up sentences either. QA: Verbatim you want? Verbatim you get. ...
I finally got to the point I hated time for work. I went through 2 buyouts and it just seemed to get worse. I have watched QA people busted down due to not getting enough lines per hour, which is impossible when there's not enough work, and when most of the acute care work was 100% listens. I got ONE raise in 7 years yet the duties kept piling on and found out some were making 4.00 an hour more than me in lower positions. On days off you were expected to join meetings no m ...
