I have to do something today to keep a smile on my face with all these **You can't name that voice recognition platform here** reports.
The computer translated:
Norma with diaper.
Dictated:
Normal amount of wet diapers.
Computer translated:
No lower tracheal rashes.
Dictated:
No lower extremity pain or rashes.
Computer:
Family history is a second at home.
Dictated:
Family history: There are no sick contacts at home.
Okay, you get the idea. I'm not sure if they are funny, or not. I'll keep an eye out for some real side-splitters to share.

My mom and I both work for the same local transcription company. Mom began typing for a newer PA, who tended to swallow the microphone.
Mom had absolute fits trying to decipher things she didn't even have a clue about.
Her classic was this:
Physical Exam
General: Patient well-nourished, well-developed.
Lungs: Clear to auscultation.
Heart: No rubber cantaloupe.
We all died of laughter. Of course she knew this wasn't correct, but we all got a laugh out of it.
We now call these types of boo-boos Rubber Cantaloupes.

That is great. My Ruber Canteloupe is a "Poner Hatfinch." I spent about half an hour one night looking this up. The doc is a super dictator, never a problem and very clearly (I thought) said "No poner hatfinch." I could not imagine what he meant because I knew that could not be right but it was clear as day. Finally I gave up and called my husband in and asked him to please try to make sense of it. I told him what I hear and he listened and started dying of laughter....It was pulmonary hypertension.
To this day whenever I cannot hear something or I spend ten minutes looking up something obvious I call it a poner hatfinch.

Speech recognition is certainly good for a few laughs...some of my favorites:
Dictated: the abdomen was insufflated with carbon dioxide gas.
Computer: a gap that displays car backside gas.
Dictated: peripheral vascular disease
Computer: Alaska disease
Dictated: last night and this morning
Computer: spinous snoring
Dictated: peroneus brevis
Computer: corona S rabbits (this one particularly cracked me up...I picture bunnies drinking Corona)
Dictated: blood in the stool
Computer: tongue was pulled
Dictated: please send a copy
Computer: placenta copy
Dictated: transaxillary breast augmentation
Computer: transaction Larry breast augmentation
Dictated: Depakote
Computer: nipple code AND apple core
Also, doctors names that I won't mention were transcribed as "Dr groin walls", "Dr 100 beats per minute" and "Dr old ointment".

Well, I thought they were all hysterical--but perhaps that's just because it's Friday night and I need some alcoholic refreshment BADLY!
Anyway, thanks for making me feel even more secure about the role that voice recognition may play in the future of medical transcription!

How could I have forgotten . . . a doctor whose name is pronounced like "Eunice" always come up as "Dr Anus" or "Dr Penis."
