 Subject: 1 or 2 (I was told this during training)
 
 I was told when I was training at one point WITH MedQuist (when I was still on full QA) to use the numbers 1 and 2 and not the Roman numerals.  I hope that helps.  It might very well be a matter of preference for the account you are working on, but I believe the numbers 1 and 2 are correct.

 I find this very alarming.  It's gotten quite obvious the offshore people are putting any person with a BP and pulse behind a computer and saying "transcribe."
 
 This is a huge problem.  I feel kind of sorry for these offshore "MTs" but not that much.  They really must be struggling.  It's tough for all MTs to learn, but we in the USA at least have had some proper training.
 
 Imagine not knowing "sound alike" for "tourniquet!"  Unbelievable!!!

 Subject: "was" by my training and references...sm
 
 all amounts are to be transcribed as singular when abbreviated, so it does not matter if "approximately" is used it is always 10 cc  of fluid was aspirated (and/or injected).
 
 Obviously if it is dictated "a total of 10 cc..." it is WAS because "total" is the subject. Also, even if the dictation was "10 cc of fluidS..." it would still be was because the unit of measurement is the subject of the sentence and is abbreviated.

 She required a micro round-per-minute of Dopamine to maintain her pressure. Do I have the hyphens correct in round-per-minute? There wouldn't be a hyphen between micro and round would there? Hyphens really get me :(

 hyphens...gait is broad-based?
 Subject: hyphens...gait is broad-based?
 
 I am drawing brain farts with hyphens lately.  Just looked at Dr. Grammar.  Still no help.  I know that before a noun, two or more adjectives are hyphenated, as in broad-based gait.  But what about gait is broad-based. ? Are there new rules on hyphenation? Do we always hyphenate heel-to-shin and the like?
 Yes, cerebellar, gait, and Romberg would be correct.
