Really? Imagine a critical situation where some of
Temp 98.7.Pulse 90.Blood pressure 120/80.Platelets 150,000, WBC 4.3, RBC 5.5.AST 20, ALT 22.Sodium 136, potassium 3.8, chloride 100, bicarb 25. Albumin 4.0, alk phos 89, BUN 18, calcium 9.2, CO2 25, creatinine 1.6, direct bili 0.1, gamma-GT 45, glucose 120, LDH 106, phosphorus 2.6, total bili 1, total protein 7.1, uric acid 7.6.Total cholesterol 180, HDL 56, LDL 95.
Transcription isn't all about passing an English test. A lot of rules which we follow are for ease of reading, again, in a critical situation.
And one of the major reasons for the push to convert to EMR/EHR is because of instant availability of a person's medical record in...you guessed it, a critical situation.
So it has become circular reasoning, i.e.
EMR/EHR can save a life because they're instantly available
EMR/EHR doesn't put spaces after periods
spaces after periods don't matter
a rushed and stress physician can't read the medical record because
EMR/EHR doesn't put spaces after periods
spaces after periods don't matter
patient dies.
Newbie friend found them to be very critical and constantly changed the account specifics on her.
