Subject: What are the combining forms?
I can't find anything even when I separate it out like the OP said. I would like to learn what this word means if somebody could help me out. Should it be xanth with an h instead of just xant? Even trying that, I am still stuck.
correct forms
Subject: correct forms
Staph aureus (notice Staph is capitalized; a period is not necessary)
postop (no period)
When you have a 2-word bacteria name, the first word is capitalized generally. The second word is generally not capitalized.
A Stedman's manual for Infectious Disease words is quite useful for these words.
Klebsiella
Staphylococcus
Streptococcus
Escherichia coli
I could go on... But I won't because I'm tired and the Canadian is helping me feel no pain... ;)

use of bilateral with pleural forms
Subject: use of bilateral with pleural forms
That's always ben a puzzle to me too, but I think that either way might be acceptable. The qualifying adjective (bilateral) suggests an "augmentation" was performed on both sides, and more often than not, MDs will dictate singular nouns following bilateral. Sometimes, though, if it sounds strange, I will use the pleural, i.e., one of my docs says "bilateral lower extremity" which I change to extremities. Would be interested in further input or if AAMT has a directive on this.

Eponymic forms per AAMT-dropping the 's
Subject: Eponymic forms per AAMT-dropping the 's
AAMT says to drop the possessive form with eponymic terms such as Down syndrome, Tinel sign, Lachman sign, etc. However, when used without "test" or "sign," do you add an 's. i.e. "He has a negative Tinel's," or should it be "He has a negative Tinel." Another one is Speed sign. It sounds wierd to put "He has a negative Speed." Thanks so much!!

Subject: it seems that some answers are just thrown--sm
out there with no real correlation to the question asked in the first place, and also given with global *ALL* circumstances, as well as being issued with a huge arrogant attitude as in that being the ONLY answer to the question, and also the person answering the question giving the distinct impression that they are superior to every one else on the board who are trying to *help*, simply because of her employment position and her *experience*. arrogance and superiority complexes are not viewed kindly on this board and some will definitely attempt to put that person *in their place*. We have to be careful of the answers we give to some questions, because inaccurate answers can affect the patient we are transcribing about. most of the people answering questions like to supply referenced documentation of what they think the answer should be and not just sling out sound-alike answers whether it pertains to the question or not, and saying that MTs are always off base with their questions and the sound-alikes are an attempt to get them thinking in the right direction. That approach will only get *made fun of* or a severe criticism. This is simply my observation and an attempt at an explanation. Everyone on this board tries to help, but it is the attitude that help is given in, which is important. Being QA does not necessarily make someone superior to someone else and a QAs answers are not always correct.

Subject: correct answers most definitely can be found on
The correct answer(s) can ALWAYS be found online and I have tons of reference books (which become outdated as technology presses on). The internet is putting libraries out of business and if you don't think so....just watch and wait. Business at libraries is HEAVILY DOWN due to this.
There are very 100% reliable websites to find ALL answers and websites that Medquist wants us to use. It's less time consuming actually for some to find the correct answers online. You can back it up by also looking in the books.
