viasendly on chest x-ray? - MTGal


Posted: Apr 08, 2010

I am so stuck. I have searched and searched, and I cannot find this word. This patient had blunt trauma to his chest. They did a portable chest x-ray and report "Cardiac silhouette appears quite normal. The _________ (s/l viasendly) does appear evident in the left anterior chest."

finally figured it out...VSN lead is what was dictated. - MTGal

[ In Reply To ..]
After hours of working on this one sentence, I finally figured what he is saying. He says, "The VSN lead does appear evident in the left anterior chest." But I am scribing it as VNS lead. The person has a vagus nerve stimulator. I deserve some chocolate after that one - ha!

Can Clubbing And Cyanosis Be In The Chest?

I've been an MT for 14 years and never once heard of clubbing and cyosis in the lungs.  In the exam he says - The lung fields are well expanded and clear to percussion and auscultation.  There is no clubbing or cyanosis. Then he goes into the heart, abdomen, the extremities.  Would it be correct to leave it under the lungs or do you think he's just all over the board.  I cannot find anything that relates clubbing and cyanosis with the lungs, but wanted to ask firs ...
