You're getting some very good advice here. sm
Subject: You're getting some very good advice here. sm

I've been using PRD for years and it allows me to use symbols as part of the shortcuts which really helps a lot. Because there can be the same abbreviation for different phrases, I will add a single hyphen for cardio, 2 hyphens for ortho, etc. Also, if the phrase needs to be hyphenated to precede a noun, such as in "up-to-date information," the short form here for a hyphenated "up to date" would be "-utd." When it doesn't need to be hyphenated, it would be "utd." This comes in handy for the phrase "too numerous to count." (You get the idea.)

This is really a personalized thing. My short forms may be a mystery for another MT.

For personal names that crop up a lot that I don't want to type out each time, I'll use the last name with either a hyphen after it or a "1." For instance, "George Washington, MD," I'd use "wash1." For "George Washington, PA-C" I'd use wash-.

Your "rrr" also could be "r3." My "alert and oriented x3" is "ao3."

Whatever floats your boat! Have fun!
