It s/l Lexi Myoview stress test. What is the Lexi??
Lexiscan Myoview -- see message - Jane
[ In Reply To ..]If you are having a 2 day Lexiscan Myoview, the rest portion will be on the first day and the Lexiscan stress portion will be on the second day.
How is the Test Performed?
The test consists of 2 parts, under resting conditions and after Lexiscan induced stress.
The resting portion is generally done first. An I.V. line will be started to allow ease of the injection. The I.V. will be removed after the Lexiscan portion is completed.
Approximately 20-30 minutes after the first injection the resting images will be taken. You will lie on a special table and the camera will rotate above and around your chest while the pictures are being taken. This will take about 15 minutes to complete.
The Lexiscan part of the test is done next. While you are sitting up you will be given an infusion lasting 10 seconds of Lexiscan. The Dr. and/or Nurse Practitioner will be watching your EKG and monitoring your blood pressure the entire time. You may have some, all, or no side effects to the Lexiscan. Side effects may include headache, warm sensation in the body, tightness in the throat, shortness of breath, chest discomfort, or nausea.
Immediately after the Lexiscan is injected, the Myoview tracer is injected.
EKG and blood pressure will continue to be monitored until it is back to normal. Approximately 30 minutes after the Lexiscan, the 2nd set of pictures will be taken. It is very important you lie very still while the camera takes the pictures. You may breathe normally during all the pictures.

No More Stress-woohoo
Jul 10, 2013
I quit my job due to health issues and my stress level has gone way down. I worked for 8 years here and it was okay. There were tough times, but it was mostly okay because my TSM/CCM left me alone but were accessible if needed. They answered my emails and phone calls (even though there were about 5 or so different ones through the years). It was just aggravating when good accounts would go to ASR. But, I don't have to worry anymore. Hope things get better ...

No more microscopic QA dissection for me. My new plan is to shoot the job full of blanks and send it in - far less stressful for sure. Each and every time I hear something that I am not 100% sure of - they get a blank. This is not now nor was it ever MY personal problem. Today I'm quite tired of being penalized for someone else's inability to dictate clear enough to perfectly discern what was said. No more cleaning up sentences either. QA: Verbatim you want? Verbatim you get. ...

I have watched QA people busted down due to not getting enough lines per hour, which is impossible when there's not enough work, and when most of the acute care work was 100% listens. I got ONE raise in 7 years yet the duties kept piling on and found out some were making 4.00 an hour more than me in lower positions. On days off you were expected to join meetings no m ...

I've found a wonderful way to reduce stress while working long hours. It reduces dramatically the times I've wanted to choke some of the bad dictators I seem to constantly get. It's called ShoutCast and it's free internet radio. You don't need to download anything if you have WinAmp on your PC. It plays nonstop, no commercials, etc. I keep the volume very low at 1 or 2 on the WinAmp player so it plays in the background through my headset and ...
