echo lavi measurement

Hi all, Been doing echo reports for this doc for a while, and he's now added "ACS" to the list of measurements, e.g. "ACS is 1.8". Looked high and low...can't find this and was curious as to what it stands for. Any help? Thanks in advance. ...

Thus far I have only had doctors refer to the JVD as flat or raised or sometimes at zero. Tonight, this doc says "JVD is 0 to 9 degrees/90 degrees" [I think]. I have found a site that describes JVD measurements, and one of them is 90 degrees--but there is no "zero to" part. Now I am second guessing my thought about it being 0 to 90 degrees. This doc is very sweet, but really mumbles the ends of his sentences. Anyone know about the JVD?? ...

Under the musculoskeletal portion of the physical exam, it is dictated, "Crepitus of the bilateral knees. No ankle tenderness or swelling. No MTP tenderness. Last (s/l Sjogren's) was 14.5 cm."

swallowed the TE probe through the _______ block??? (sounds almost like valve or bio???) ...

For those who work with echo dictation - from what I understand, it's useful for straight transcribing, but does it work in VR? I'm thinking of investing in it, but can't understand how it would be useful in a VR program, which is where everything will be in just a few years. I would think it wouldn't work in a non-Word program since you can't cut and paste, and even if it did, you'd be editing twice. Thanks for any info! ...

that we have to key in all this information from the work sheet into the report? I hate these things. It takes forever to get through them, and please don't let me make a mistake because then I'm having to scrutinize the thing to make sure I'm back on target with the right number. A lot of time being spent on a job that took only minutes to type. I had to vent about it to somebody and wondering if anybody else feels the same way about them. ...

I've tried to use the search function, but either it's not working properly or I'm not doing something right (I suspect it's not working right now). I work for a company with a Web-based transcription platform (straight typing). What I want to try to do to improve my productivity is to buy Dragon Naturally Speaking, load it onto my computer, echo dictate (redictate) what my docs are saying, and then cut and paste the software's output into the platform windo ...

Ok, moving ahead with my plan to up my productivity by doing echo dictation,redictate the reports and up my straight typing speed using voice recognition software.

Wanna get started on this ASAP, and can have the product from Amazon in a couple of days. Suggest ...

I had posted previously to the tech board and it was suggested to post here instead. Am wanting to up my production, increase my lph in order to increase my pay since my cpl rate has gone down. Was thinking about using Dragon to do "echo dictation" but the cost for Dragon medical is prohibitive. Would like to know what other methods are available to increase production and people's experience with using word expanders such as InstantText or something else. I have gotta do something in order ...
