Portal sites
Subject: Portal sites

You heard it right. In Orthopedics, you'll come across the procedure of "arthroscopy" quite a bit. The Ortho surgeon makes small incisions called "portals", through one of which he inserts the scope to look inside the joint, and through the others he inserts other instruments as needed for cutting, shaving, biopsies, etc. Once he completes the procedure, he closes those incisions which become the "portal sites" that he is talking about. He obviously is checking during the followup visit to see if there is any infection at the incision sites.

"I injected with 4-0 with lidocaine" or "I injected with 40-0 with lidocaine, " or "I injected with 40 with lidocaine."  Which one sounds right?  Any clues?

5 mL of 1% lidocaine WERE injected...
Subject: 5 mL of 1% lidocaine WERE injected...

In response to Mark's question, "5 cc of 1% lidocaine was or were injected", the text from the grammar website below, from the topic, "Subject-Verb Agreement", explains why "WERE" was the right word there.  Per that text, the "5 mL" (but not the "lidocaine") becomes the Subject, and the Verb should be in plural.

Don't let the word "students" confuse you; the subject is each and each is always singular — Each is responsible."
