There is nothing in the chart next morning, so the intern is asked to explain.<br /><br />He says, "I tried several times, I really did. I waited till the guy fell asleep, and as soon as I start the procedure, the guy's up again!"<br /><br />*PR in this case stood for sleeping pulse rate, which takes out variables like anxiety and stress related to thyroid pathology.<br /><br />The intern, of course, tried to do the other, more commonly ordered, PR or 'per rectum' -- a rectal examination.bluetoothbuddhanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-59560689737716041672013-09-03T22:48:54.371-04:002013-09-03T22:48:54.371-04:00THIS is why I have my hospital discharge patients ...THIS is why I have my hospital discharge patients read me their discharge med list (that I spent 30+ minutes creating), complete with dose, frequency, and ROUTE.

Girl comes into the clinic, obviously pregnant, but swearing she couldn't be because she took her birth control daily. When further questioned about how she took the BCP, it came to light that the patient stuck them "up" there, since that is where babies come from.
