<p>Due to someone (I am assuming they were in a hurry) rushing through the spellcheck function of an Electronic Health Record note today, a patient was described as having an "omnipotent" cervix.</p>
<p>While what they were trying to say is not a humorous condition, and the error was fixed by the time I tried to show a peer, it still made me smile a bit inwardly the rest of the day.</p>
<p>And it's a good lesson to not become dependent on technology.</p>
<p>On the quiz we took on Friday, a patient was described as having a history of “genial” herpes. I LOL’d.</p>
<p>i had a friend who did not spell check her essay because she was short on time. In it she discussed “pubic schools.”</p>
<p>kokeshi, spell check wouldn’t have found the error. The word was spelled correctly; it was just the wrong word!</p>
<p>OP: you must lead a dull life : )</p>
<p>It happens to the best of us eventually. Med school made me much less interesting.</p>
