pedia? thoracentesis - paddidy


Posted: Feb 04, 2010

Sputum cultures for AFB, negative.  Depete? (maybe should be Repeat?, although he is pronouncing it as a D) cultures pending.  The pedia? thoracentesis were negative for organisms.

could it be para- and thoracentesis?...sm - elaine

as in: paracentesis and thoracentesis?

Or maybe doc is saying pleuro- and thoracentesis?

BTW, In certain accents or speaking styles, R can sound like D.

Hope that's helpful!

Is he saying period? - Buns
