Osteoarthritides versus osteoarthritis when it is plural!
Subject: Osteoarthritides versus osteoarthritis when it is plural!

Please tell me that the correct plural form of osteoarthritis is osteoarthritides when it is plural, as in bilateral or multiple joints. I just got deducted for this, yet everywhere else I have worked (including on this account that just marked me wrong but for the last 20 months did not) does say it is osteoarthritides. In fact, this company marked me wrong before when I did not make it plural a long time ago. I just cannot win. Last time it was typing "is" instead of "was" when the dictator kept changing tenses throughout the report, as in "The abdomen is soft and nontender. There was a well-healed scar in the suprapubic region." This should all be one tense, correct? I am supposed to be transcribing according to the AAMT BOS.

Extremities - no CVA or CVP?
Subject: Extremities - no CVA or CVP?

Has anyone ever heard of either of these terms dictated under the "extremities" section of a physical exam?  I can understand "no CVA" in a way because of the patient ever had a stroke then their extremities might be effected (although I would think this would go under the neuro section).  Its the CVP that I'm not getting.  I've checked my abbreviation references and I can't find anything this would refer to.


BTW, I left this blank.  The QA department filled the blank with No CVA or CVP.  I'm curious more than anything.  Am I missing something here?
