hyphenating triple o's
Subject: hyphenating triple o's

It is common to separate long strings of vowels by a hyphen to clarify the space between syllables for proper pronunciation. However, like many things this is a stylistic issue and not written in stone, hence the discrepancy in references. For stylistic issues, defer to your employer's/client's preferences, if specified; otherwise choose according to your personal preference.
s/l triple scope
Subject: s/l triple scope

I can't seem to find a good reference to this but it sounds like he's saying "triple scope."  Has anyone heard of this or know if I'm hearing right?  Here's the context.  "The patient continues to have no evidence of disease recurrence from her Stage II head and neck cancer treated with chemotherapy and radiation.  A triple scope will be performed."


Thanks!

These are not pain meds.  These are antibiotics.  "cillin" would be a great clue for the future to know that you are pretty much dealing with antibiotics.  Sometimes it seems you have to look at the whole picture.
