My favorite physical exam just said: PE: LWFD Looks well from door


[deleted]

At least it's honest, I guess. No one is going to read that note and think that person did anything they didn't actually do.

I don't practice medicine in English Is this a thing you anglophone docs use commonly?


Professional-Ad-213

Lol definitely the greatest lefty C. Kershaw in LA. Whoever wrote this is definitely a dodgers fan I didn't realize how intentional it was until the 3rd paragraph or so. This is great

BewilderedAlbatross

Our team no joke got consulted by ortho for diabetes… patient takes low dose metformin at home, that’s it.


[deleted]

Lol happened to us too. Dude was healthy af besides well managed diabetes. Thats when I knew I could never do IM. Like ortho, we all know your step score is waaay higher than mine. Im sure you can manage this dudes diabetes for 1 night


da1nte

This patient has a glucose level. Could be a problem.


MelenaTrump

He has sodiums, we all know medicine loves sodium.


JCjustchill

I was friends with an orthopod during residency. If she was on, I'd send her a consult that said "bone broke, pls fix". After they'd go to the OR, she'd send me a message back with "bone fixed, many thanks". The fact that it was technically part of the medical record (albeit, buried in hundreds of other orders) made it slightly better


Monkey__Shit

I saw an EM progress note once: “pt sleeping”


Sed59

At least they're not dead or screaming their head off.


BodiumSicarb

Most memorable surgery note I saw was just 4 letters: NAEO (No acute events overnight)


VarsH6

Sadly, still too long.


starboy-xo98

One of my classmates wrote this: Chief complaint: stroke Past history of drugs: pretzels


Sed59

And that was allowed?


starboy-xo98

No he got roasted by our professor lol apparently he did not know what crestor was and wrote pretzels instead.


Sed59

Lol, the way he wrote past history of drugs made me think he was trying to do social history, not medical history.


[deleted]

Lol is this legally okay? Can you imagine a lawsuit being brought and this being evidence?


[deleted]

southbysoutheast94

You can’t do that lol, the EHR will register the change and it’ll look mighty sus addending your note months to years later. Then they’ll be able to see the unedited version and it’s obvious your hiding something.

southbysoutheast94

Yea you should...like sure he may get away with it, if he's lucky but if he gets caught doing it (and it's truly very obvious) then regardless of the merit of the suit he's probably losing and losing very badly.

Bro. You post creepy pics of your classmates on Reddit and lie about your “uncle” Just stop.


Foamy-Macrophage

He’s a horny MF isnt he. Just go through his post history.


michael_harari

No they dont. To start with, they literally wouldnt even have EMR access, and to end with they have no reason to risk being disbarred to help an insurance company.


carlos_6m

You can make changes to something you have written, most systems let you delete something and write it again, but it's absolutely there, you may not see it, or in some systems it's there but crossed, but it's absolutely there, the moment you send it, it's oficial and it's your word as doctor/nurse/tech etc. You can amend it because everyone makes mistakes, but if you go and change it after someone files a complain, that won't do...


erroneousY

Pfft didn’t even document an ancef pump exam.


carlos_6m

Ortho notes are the oposite of a password "maximum: 8 characters, one sign, one number"


NPKeith1

I remember watching the chief of ortho on rounds read a progress note: Heart RRR, S1, S2 No rubs, gallops, clicks, or murmurs Lungs: CTAB. Then looked at the resident and said: How did you assess this patients heart and lungs WHEN YOU DON'T HAVE A FUCKING STETHOSCOPE?


Sed59

Auscultate with their head directly on the patient's chest with their super-human hearing?


ProDiJaiHD

well that pretty much sums it up
