prostate term - bry20

Posted: Dec 09, 2009

I am doing an H&P transcription on a prostate patient. In PE, it sounds like " no perfalydema". That's obviously not it. Any thoughts? Thanks.

'peripheral edema' is not a prostate-specific term. You will likely hear this used in any general exam.

Could it be Peripheral edema? It is swelling under the skin in the tissue, and accumulation of excess fluid under the skin.

Hope this helps.
