Anyone familiar with how to indicate diagnostic or therapeutic injections by a number? Doc says therapeutic injection number 1, of course some are diagnostic injection # x. Should that go in a separate heading, or just as part of procedure description sentence? Have no samples from this practice to go by. Thanks for any info.

s/l fluid exercise program sm
Subject: s/l fluid exercise program sm
His MRI arthrogram unfortunately has showed a fair amount of arthrosis. He has been read as having a superior labrale tear, but I think this is likely a normal sulcus.
TREATMENT/PLAN: I am going to put him on some meloxicam. We will see how this affects his osteoarthritis of the hip, and I will see him back as needed. We have talked also about using cushion-soled shoes, s/l fluid exercise program with a non-resistive stationary bike and swelling or the like.

you might want to change labrale to labral and instead of swelling, possibly swimming as part of the exercises? Maybe re-listen again and see if you hear this.

that type out zero if it stands alone gets me and
Subject: that type out zero if it stands alone gets me and
I truly don't think most orthopedists or chiropractors (both of which were my first fields 30 years ago) like zero alone when they are giving degrees of movement of a limb, i.e., 30 degrees of extension, 0 degrees of flexion, 10 degrees of abduction, and 0 degrees of adduction......I truly don't think they would want zero degrees in any part of that....just my *take*
If we were to follow the BOS2 statement about zeroes in this particular case above, I do believe the orthopedists and/or chiropractors would have a problem with that.
Even in labs now, I DO type zero troponin for 0 troponin, but I don't think it looks very good when all other labs in same paragraph are numerical....
and let's think about urinalysis...... ..... zero red cells or 0 red cells
(they rarely do this - they will say 0-2 red cells and in that case, the zero is not standing alone and we can use 0 there but it's just more to think about.....because occasionally, if a patient has had hematuria, let's say.....the dictator might very well say: There are zero red cells.)
just commenting and exercising my own concerns and/or opinions...
