To QA: I'm having trouble with the diffrence between pressor support and pressure support?
Subject: To QA: I'm having trouble with the diffrence between pressor support and pressure support?

Or are the one and the same? 

 

Example: 

 

The infant is on pressor/pressure support (cardiac section). 

 

I get both on google.  Could you give me an example of when you would use either of these? 

 

Any help clearing this up would be MUCH appreciated!   TIA!

Trouble with difference between PRESSURE support and PRESSOR support...
Subject: Trouble with difference between PRESSURE support and PRESSOR support...

Or are they the same thing?  Dictator says that the infant is gradually weaned from pressure OR pressor support and transferred to p.o. medications.  The infant has congestive heart failure. 

 

The dictator has a very strong accent which makes it even more difficult... he could be saying either.  Thanks for any help!

I thought we were supposed to use mL instead of SM
Subject: I thought we were supposed to use mL instead of SM

cc.  I have the latest BOS and BOS workbook and I'm still confused. 


My account has a few doctors whose work is automatically sent to QA.  I thought we were no longer supposed to use cc and change it to mL.  I had  marked as error when I changed doctor stated cc to mL.  I then asked one of the mentors on my account and she stated mL is used for what goes into the patient, IV, blood products, etc., and cc is used for what comes out of the patient, urine etc. 


Is there any consensus on this?  I trust all of you here.
