I learned 27 years ago to use q.4h. (no spaces), past few years q.4 h. (see msg)
Subject: I learned 27 years ago to use q.4h. (no spaces), past few years q.4 h. (see msg)
Now some are saying it's q. 4h.?? UGH, YUCK!! I have also worked on accounts where it had to be "every 4 hours," and we had to spell out p.r.n. (as needed for). At least we got more characters.
First rule: It is all what the "client/account" wants, not always what the BOS says it is. I realize that language and its usage is constantly changing, but I've seen so many BOS and client flip-flops on so many other things in nearly 3 decades that it's laughable. What isn't laughable is when we get penalized for not knowing what they want, even when they, themselves, don't know or are wrong.
Oh, and I still prefer the old no spaces: q.4h., q.4-6h., q.12h., and so on.....

Subject: Wow, thank you. Just years, years and more years of experience
and a constant thirst for learning something new everyday. As we all know this can get to be somewhat boring, but learning from what I transcribe as well as from other transcriptionists keeps me going (money is not bad either). It becomes a challenge. But I can't thank you enough for the kind words.

I am not sure if this looks right but this the sentence that sounds like it is being said. I am wondering if "pub" is short for pubic?? Thanks for the ortho help, as I am at a loss in this area.
Osteopathic manipulative treatments were performed using muscle energy, Jones strain/counter strain, 7 stages of Spencer, leg tug technique, and a pub technique.
Thanks for your time.

Hi, I am new at ortho and have a couple of questions.
Physical Exam: There is an abrasion over the left anterior tibia. Left foot has normal dorsalis pedis and tibialis posterior pulses. The sensation is intact. *Capillary refill is less than 2 seconds.* Am I hearing this correctly?
Then he says: X-rays of the left femur and left *tib fib* are negative. Is it OK to say tib fib?
Thanks.

I'm working on a transcription for Orthopedics, and I'm not sure what the doc is saying before "cervical lodosis". It sounds like "attended", but maybe someone could give me a second opinion? Here's the sentence:
