• Does diakineses have anything to do with the heart? + o j h i b m
Fri Jul 4 14:06:55 2008 o j h i b m I just need to find out if I am right or way off the mark. I had a report with an echocardiogram in it and this is what the doctor dictated. "Markedly dilated LV with stress and rest consistent with global hypokinesis and apical s/l diokinesis." I could not find the word diokinesis anywhere and he definitely was not saying dyskinesis. I found the word diakinesis, but in regard to chromosome change in cell division. I could not find any connection between diakinesis and the heart, so I left a blank and it came back with diakinesis in the blank. I emailed 2 supervisors about it asking them to let me know if this was right or wrong and have not heard back. Does anyone on here know anything about this? I would like to know so if I hear it again, I will know what to use.

Well, one fine day, she intended to type, "For further information, please see Dr. Smith's long dictation," for which her shortcut was dicj, but she inadvertently hit the "k" instead of the "j." She said the nursing staff from the hospital received the note and called her supervisor, and they were laughing so hard they could barely tell her what had happened. "...please see Dr. Smith's long _____." Her supervisor then called her, practically in tears from laughing so hard (pardon the pun) with the nurses, and M. says if she hadn't had caller ID, she wouldn't have known who it was on the phone.

• Seen for possible sleep apnea. Denies *un-con-troll-tah-bole* sensation in legs. + SM for context
Fri Jul 4 10:20:27 2008 SM for context She also gives a history of tossing and turning in bed but denies any (long pause here) *un-con-troll-tah-bole* sensation in the lower extremities. She does not have paresthesias but does get some pain which occurs at different times of the day.
I thought of uncontrollable but just not sure makes sense in that context. ESL.
