type out potassium chloride. Which I'm only too happy to do with a shortcut, LOL.


The account that I am on
Subject: The account that I am on

The account I type is "almost verbatim".  We type subcu, but in the lab values we have to expand the workds (alkaline phosphatase, et cetera).  If a word is dictated that is not a known abbreviation, we have to type it out.  I think each account is different, and as the other poster said, they should have given you an client form so that you would know what the hospital expects. Sounds like your guy kinda got his tail in a crack and felt like he needed to unload on a poor, innocent MT who was just trying to do her job!  Hang in there!      W'e're cheering for you!

Does your account use the BOS 2?
Subject: Does your account use the BOS 2?

That's the source of the "Don't capitalize it when it stands alone" rule. My suggestion would be to follow BOS if your account uses that and to be consistent. Stedman's is (are?) notorious for inconsistency with this sort of thing.

Go with what your QA tells you.  It may be acceptable but the doctor may not like/want it done that way.  I've found every account has different rules and preferences.

He just said the patient was *ambued and could not be intibated due to facial trauma* 


So, looks like this is one of those that is up in the air and probably something to talk to company QA about? 


 


Is this a verbatim account?
Subject: Is this a verbatim account?

If not, it would make more sense like this:

It would help beneficial organisms AND commensals bacteria colonize his colon and help as a first line of protection against disease.

If not, then I would type:
It would help beneficial organisms, commensals bacteria colonozie his colon and help as a first line of protection against disease.

Since they want the beneficial bacteria and commensals bacteria to colonize his colon, there is no need for a comma before colonize.

and as I said, that is how I was taught.  Now, every account I've done wants it that way and it is that way on the Dangerous Abbreviation list...AND that's what I said - use mL not cc.
