Uterus palpates to be top normal sized by billotment - LHMT


Posted: Sep 29, 2011

Having trouble with this phrase and wondering if I have it correct?  It is for a GYN exam.  Thanks!

should be ballottement - Happy MT Robin

bal·lotte·ment .

a physical diagnostic technique used to detect solid objects surrounded by fluid, as abdominal organs or tumors, performed by suddenly compressing the fluid with the hand, causing the solid object to abut against the hand.

The rest of it sounds okay.

THANK YOU!!! - LHMT

Didn't think of spelling it that way. Thanks so much!

ballottement, not billotment - tjohnson

When a dictator asked that you insert a normal ROS or PE, then dictates "for the respiratory put ..." I often get dictation that contradicts what remains in the normal template but the dictators do not instruct to delete the rest of that heading. Sometimes this is an easy fix, for example if you know they complain of SOB, then you delete that portion. Other times we can't possibly know how the "normal" differs for this particular patient. It's time consuming to keep flagging these for ...

Mistakes In Normal Dictations
Jan 20, 2010

At my company (a smaller one) there are a lot of mistakes in the normal dictations that the doctors request.  The way they are created in the first place is the transcriptionist types up the report and sends it to QA saying the doctor would like to use this in the future for his normal, but I don't think they get reviewed by QA.  I think they just get created the way they are.  So if it was a right eye, the word right is there all the way through it.  If a word is misspe ...
