Guest guest Posted August 5, 2002 Report Share Posted August 5, 2002 Sue, I believe it is the Gomco bell clamp that is used. It can be found under Gomco in Stedman's Equipment words third edition.

Not sure how this would be used to circumcise? But I spent a great deal of time searching for this too, and the only medical equipment that Jenco produces are pH monitors, and temperature type probes, etc., which does not apply here either!

Guest guest Posted August 5, 2002 Report Share Posted August 5, 2002 How about Jelco???? Just a guess Jan jantranscribes@... " Typing is my life. " " Whoever signs the paycheck makes the rules. " Word help Gone for three days (my brother got married Saturday) and I come back to a new account. Most family practice stuff so far, but it's getting used to the formatting, style, etc. of the account. Anyway, enough griping. The doctor says: Circumsize with 1.1 **s/l jen-co** under sterile conditions. Less than 1 cc blood loss noted. Any ideas?

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2002 Report Share Posted August 22, 2002 I think your pulmonary erythema should be palmar erythema (red palms) - it's a sign of hepatitis C. Your s/l could be spider nevi - also a sign of hepatitis C. I also hear a lot spider angiomas or telangiectasias, although those don't fit your s/l. Hope this helps.

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2002 Report Share Posted August 22, 2002 Thank you Pattie! I relistened to it and it definately is spider nevi. It still sounds like pulmonary erythema but that didn't make sense to me and I'm sure you're right.

Guest guest Posted September 11, 2002 Report Share Posted September 11, 2002 Thanks Holly!!! Isn't this list great?? Meg Word help Hi Everyone - I am transcribing some operative reports for a class assignment and am having trouble with one word. The wounds were dressed with s/l Kelfa and Tegaderm in the operating room. I did find Telfa as a type of surgical dressing, but having listened to the tape several times, I still think that I am hearing a " k " sound, not a " T " sound. Any help is greatly appreciated.
