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. Margaret

In my surgery words, a Gomco is a suction, as in Gomco suction, or Gomco

suction tube. 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! Stumped.....

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?

Thanks,

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.

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.

Hi Jen, actually it is a word. There may not be a specific definition for it

in a dictionary, but is considered as a correct combining form of the prefix

re-

with the word occurence, or occur, as in reoccur. I went to the

Merriam-Webster site to see if it was listed, and it is listed under the

prefix re- :-)

There are lots of words that are combining forms that you won't find a

definition for them, but you will for their roots and prefixes and suffixes.

that is what makes English so delightful, it doesn't make them incorrect.

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. Thanks!
