I stand by my belief that decubiti is a made-up word that is transcribed by many and dictated by many, and just because you can find it on some websites doesn't necessarily authenticate it.

The OP will just have to see what her employer's viewpoint is on the word. He who has the gold makes all the rules!

    I disagree re: deep-seated versus deep-seeded
    Subject: I disagree re: deep-seated versus deep-seeded

    I believe deep-seeded may be correct.  It is a term frequently used in oncology and dermatology.  "Deep-seeded" means that something has been "seeded" from another site (primary), as in metastasis.  Please do a Google search and form your own opinion on this.

    Since there are so many different transcription platforms, you can't always program in the 1/2 symbol and typing it like that - 1/2 - is clumsy and can be unclear when read. The guidelines at my last in-house job were to convert it to decimal if possible.
