with regards to labs on a pt. with AIDS

I will be purchasing hearing aids soon and have two related questions. What type of headphones can I use, if at all, with: In-ear hearing aids, Behind-the-ear hearing aids. Would also be nice to know where I can get same at a decent price. At this time I purchase my transcription gear at Martel Electronics. Thanks, all, and keep that volume turned down (no my hearing didn't go that way; I am just getting older). ...

Im looking for additional ways to study for my classes while Im going through the coding course. Im interested in knowing what any of you have used in addition to what the school gives for study aids to help you obtain and keep the knowledge learned.

Ive heard and read comments about coloring books, laminated guides, crosswords etc. So what did you use and where ca ...

Dear Friends: I went to my ENT on Monday and they did a hearing test and found that I have significant hearing loss in my left ear and to make it compatible with my right ear, which has much less hearing loss, they recommended that I get hearing aids. My question to you is what recommendations do you have for headphones for over the ears, not in the ear, for people who wear hearing aids. Thanks so much. Sincerely, Suzie ...

This is what it sounds like. "His WBC 11.48, and his 12.4 and 37.0 PT/PTT were normal." It seems like "PT/PTT were normal." Should be a sentence on its own, but then I'm not sure what the 12.4 and 37.0 lab values would be for. Grr... Any help would be greatly appreciated! ...

I just got a note from QA for a hospital I transcribe for (didn't even know we had QA!) that I have been transcribing platelets incorrectly.

Can anyone help with any tips on numbers? I work in speech recognition as most of us do now and I am having the hardest time with numbers. The account I am on has high ESL also, but even without that, I can't seem to get values correct 100% of the time to save my life. Examples are hearing a 0 instead of an 8 such as 130 instead of 138 or hearing a 2 instead do a 3 or even in platelets thinking I am hearing a value of 300,000 versus 200,000. If it is a profile that doesn't make sense ...

This patient could possibly have gout, fibromyalgia, OA, RA, psoriasis...among other possibilities. "Check rheumatology labs, including rheumatoid factor, anti-CCP, ANA, sed rate, CRP, CMP, CBC, Lyme. The patient had a s/l 'dipsticks all the time.' Check an ACE." The doctor did pause after "had a" so that may not be part of the sentence. In that case, it sounds kind of like, "The patient gets sticks all the time." I'm not sure if either makes sense. She does mention ...

Doc is referring patient for labs to rule out rheumatoid arthritis. He's listed these a million times and always says "CCP level." This time he said "citrullinated cross-linked peptides." I'm thinking he just doesn't know what CCP stands for, as I can only find "cyclic citrullinated peptide". He's not a rheumatologist, but then again, neither am I. Can someone with rheumatology experience weigh in? ...
