Patient has had panniculectomy in the past and has a well-healed scar except for some shininess to it and a tendency for one small area to have superficial dehiscence with bleeding if pressure placed.
The doc clearly says, "...recommended having the patient put s/l *peri-dressing* over his..." and later "...have obtained several of these dressings for the patient."
Can't find anything. Thanks in advance. :-) ...
Dictated: This was cleansed with peroxide and sterile s/l full-ethelyl gauze and bandage applied.
He has an East Coast accent and the audio is a bit grainy so "full" also kinda sorta sounds like "four."
But now I have listened to it so many times, it all just sounds like mush. Any suggestions?
Thank you! ...
The doctor says, "Wound was covered with Sofra-Tulle dry gauze and Ace bandage." Should I put a comma between Sofra-Tulle and dry gauze or if the Sofra-Tulle itself is a dry gauze? ...
The abdomen was dressed with "Topafoam" and an abdominal binder.
this patient just had liposuction of fat from her abdomen for repair of defects in her breast reconstruction s/p mastectomy...... ever heard of topofoam???? ...
Since telfa is not a brand name but a material it should not be spelled with a capital T, however, per my spellchecker and even in some documents on the web it is spelled with a capital T. I'm confused... ...
dictator is talking about treating a wound with a foam dressing and says "knee salt" foam dressing. I cant find any type of dressing that even sounds like that, and it might be two seperate things, like "knee salt and foam dressing" but she didn't say and. Anyone know what the "knee salt" could be? ...
The patient is wrapped with bulky gauze dressing and *6 inch J straps* or *six and J straps*? The first one makes more sense to me, but I am unable to verify it. Thanks! ...
