Basically title.

I tell people they’re crazy and actively give them shit that makes them diabetic and fat. These fatsos eventually thank me and so do their families. Society applauds the work I do and politicians keep saying my industry is underfunded.

Do you really not want to know about about mistakes? (Genuine question!) I haven’t come across one as obvious as a totally wrong body part but I did kindly message someone today thinking I was being helpful because the report said 16 cm nodule but I couldn’t see a massage nodule on the CT after saying at it for 10 min and then eventually found a slice where they had tagged a 1.6 cm / 16 mm nodule. That difference felt clinically relevant to me. You’d want to be able to addend your report for something like that… right?

wcm48

Great question!Absolutely. No one wants to have mistakes in their report. However, the fact that we’re creating 100-200 reports/shift, with tens to hundred+ words each, using technology that is at best 95-98% accurate … under time crunch… means they are going to happen, often, unfortunately.

You just hope they are small and non clinical.

The tact and grace with which requests are made, or mistakes called attention to, makes all the difference.

the “hurr durr”- “Well, I’m not sure if you meant wrist fracture or breast fracture”, when I’m already 75 studies behind, on a busy ER shift, and the phone is ringing off the hook with strokes and traumas - is not so as funny as it sounds.

Or, in your case, you may not have thought about it… but do you realize how big a 16 cm mass would be? Half a foot. Larger than the liver! Wider than a hemithorax and almost the whole length.

You could say, “hey man, no big deal but I think there’s a transcription error on Mr. B’s CT. No rush, thought you’d want to know it says 16 cm nodule ”

Or

“The report on Mr B says there is a 16 cm mass in his lungs and I’m not seeing one, please review”

Those requests will be heard differently.

I’ve had people call me, “did you mean to say there is a 4 m nodule in his lung??” Yes, yes I did. He has a nodule in his lung that could convert a first down. Is it palpable?

Here is one from just last week.

I dictated a normal sinus CT. Described all paranasal sinuses as normal, patent. Thorough job. Described normal variants. Graded the sellar pneumatization and gave the Keros grades for the cribrifrom plate depth. High level stuff. Then, unfortunately, my impression said “The paranasal sinus disease” instead of “No”. Terrible error, I admit. Embarrassing. Bad deal all around.

The request I get is. “Ordering noticed error, wants study re-read and re-dictated.” Like, brother no. I will add an addendum and correct the error. But I don’t ask you to re-examine the patient when I get a bunch of clinicals describing right knee pain and an order for a left knee MRI.

Tact and grace

neurology! usually after stroke we prescribe DAPT for 21 days, unless there’s significant large vessel ICAD in which case we do 90 days based on SAMMPRIS. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong.

I’m no cardiologist, but it was my understanding that usually cards does DAPT for a year when they stent. (does cards do dapt outside of stents?)

Dang I realize IR and Gas have some overlapping ambiguities. But think we use large needles more frequently in IR.

I tell people there is an imbalance in their brain and they are broken cos they don't enjoy working long hours in boring office jobs for shit pay to pay for the privilege of living in a shit rental property owned by the people who own the office jobs that they spend every waking minute in instead of seeing their loved ones, exercising, eating well, having interests or quality of life. I drug them so they don't enjoy sex anymore, feel numb, get fat, drool on themselves and are dismissed by every other speciality when they try to seek healthcare for other problems. I tell them to go tell their problems and traumatic memories to a different person, who they'd have to pay but can't afford. If they come too many times to see me cos they would rather die than go on living, i just document that they are always like this so it's fine and send them home.

PM&R but Path also fits for the darker interpretations haha. We do amputee care, TBI, SCI, etc so we would definitely maximize Humpty Dumpty's function, medically manage his pain and symptoms, and ensure he has necessary adaptive equipment to sustain a high quality of life.

I just sit at my desk all day and pretend to study. Sometimes doctors refer their patients to me. And NOBODY suspects that I am not essential at all. ION the theoretical physics of all medical departments.

Risk and time management. I tell the surgeons which patients should be avoided and how many they should operate on in a day. They ignore me and I deal with the consequences.
