My Stedman's OB-GYN book shows

Posted By: Me on 2006-11-20
In Reply to: obgyn help! - rachel

Subject: My Stedman's OB-GYN book shows

it as OB-GYN on the cover, as part of the name of the book, but when you look it up under O, it shows OB/GYN as the abbreviation for obstetrics and gynecology.

I am in the habit of using a hyphen and I am not sure if I am consistent with all caps or title case, so don't feel too bad for being confused.

In the Sanders Pharmaceutical Drug Book 2008 it shows Benicar HCT, no slash
Subject: In the Sanders Pharmaceutical Drug Book 2008 it shows Benicar HCT, no slash

HCT is hydrochlorothiazide and when together, Benicar HCT means hydrocholorthiazide. It should not have to be spelled out and cannot be mistaken for hydrocortisone because there is no such thing as Benicar hydrocortisone. I would leave as is as your QA and others have stated. Hopefully this clears it up.

Subject: Does anyone have the Stedman's GI/GU book? (sm)

Can someone please look up Dobbhoff tube for me and tell me what page it is on and what edition they have of the Stedman's?  That would be Dobbhoff with TWO b's and TWO f's for my purposes, here. I need that particular spelling. 


I would be SO grateful!


(Background - I was on here a while ago asking about this word. Someone was nice enough to answer me with the correct spelling as found in the Stedman's GI/GU.  I used that spelling -- the one above.  QA came after me.  I defended myself by citing Stedman's GI/GU.  QA has asked me for the edition and the page number.  Well, I don't have the durn reference MYSELF, one of you nice people helped me.)  THANKS!

I looked under cyst.

I see this word both ways so much and have had so many MDs spell it wrong in different situations that my head swims when it comes up in dictation now. So I just look it up in the phrase it's being used in. Then I can use the book to back up the way I did it if anybody argues.
