I have searched MTStars and can't find my answer.  I have posted this question before and do not get a reply.  I promise this will be my last attempt to find this answer.  I know how to use follow up and follow-up, BUT many people are using followup per BOS.  I can't find followup as a word in any dictionary.  Can someone please tell me where this is found BESIDES BOS?  Thanks in advance.  We are possibly putting in a quality check and I want to make sure I have it correct before then.  Thank you!

half a response here but is it a lead? sm
Subject: half a response here but is it a lead? sm

This sounds more like statistical analysis to me than actual cardiac-related terminology.

I'd start by looking into E x U' or something.

I did stat analysis coursework in college, and the word prime is often represented by an apostrophe. Because there could be data represented by U, and then U' is some derivation of that data. If my fuzzy memory serves me properly, anyway!

I may be WAAAAAY off base here, but that's the first thing I see in this. I hope it helps a little.
