No they are three separate views.
Subject: No they are three separate views.

No they are 3 separate views.
It is the sentence structure that is confusing. Three individual views, but once the word views gets put into the sentence it becomes plural and without the word views it is regarded as singular. I don't necessarily agree, but I believe this is why the QA department and your manager keep changing your grammar.

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?
