question. So you would not type the word dispense out? I sent my report in with a blank so I will let my QA person make that decision.

Thanks.

I wrote this one down -- cross-referencing in both "c" and "s"

Browsing this morning, I read original post and thought I had had "servant" as "cervatte" or something before -- looked up a couple different spellings, and could not find, so figured I must have been wrong and moved on. However, this one would have bugged me enough I would have spent more time searching later...

Glad you posted the correct answer.

Madhan's suggestion isn't a chart. If he specifically requests a chart I would type it that way. It doesn't matter what you think looks better. It matters what the doctor thinks looks better.

Subject: I refer to original Tessier book. Does the new one still have sm

Buckwalter retractor and Buchwalter retractor (rather than the correct Bookwalter?). There were several others, but I can't recall them now. I gave my book away about 15 years ago, and strictly use Stedman's Med/Surg Equipment words, Stedman's Surgery words, and Vera Pyle's latest. I think what you're seeing is an entry before Hasson was verified. The same thing happened with Steffee/Steffe and Veress/Verress. If there were two spellings for Hasson/Hassan, I would think Vera's book would clarify. Time will tell, though. Ya never know in this business.

drug dosing

What should I do when doc dictates drug dose that is not in drug book.


ex. metformin 875 mg


When I look this up it only comes in 500, 850, or 1000. This is the first time, usually it's 500 or 1000. Should I just change it to 850 or leave it for QA?


Drug dosing q.4h.
Subject: Drug dosing q.4h.

What is the latest AAMT BOS standard for drug dosing such as "q.4h."  I thought I heard that it was changing to "q.4 h. or q. 4h."  Can someone clarify this for me?  Thanks!


Medication dosing
Subject: Medication dosing

If a doctor dictates "Invanz 1 gram q. 24" would you put q.24h.or would you leave it alone.  I know for sure she was scheduled for once a day.  Is there an industry standard on this particular happening or is it the personal preference of each facility?  Thanks!

has anyone ever heard of a word parous or perous???  doc is giving list of meds and says aspirin 81 mg parous or perous daily,  amlodipine 10 mg parous or perous daily.  Definitely not saying p.o. and he keeps saying it, before the word daily everytime.  This is a new one on me. Thanks

Perhaps that poster was in the middle of a report.......so one wants the answer ASAP...but for years I mistyped Mohs....thought it was MOHS.....you know, like a flap in surgery.....and alot of them are all caps.....then my friend had to have Mohs surgery and I learned.  The great thing about MT'g is that we are continually learning new things.

it would seem that the question was asked because you asked so many questions in a row. That normally does not happen unless someone is doing homework or taking a test.

Subject: The poster was asking if she should

type verbatim. The doc is saying pussy and that is what she should type.

If you look in the dictionary, there is a definition for pussy which means "full of or resembling pus".

You can't say "no way is "pussy" correct. You are telling her to alter the sentence and she said it is a verbatim account. It is a word.

If it is not verbatim, then alter away but you better be careful if you do this a lot.
