Subject: What do you do when the doc dictates sm

... and I gave the patient 50 "mikes" of whatever medication.  One said to spell it m-i-q-u-e-s, one said to use m-i-k-e-s, and one hospital said not to use it at all. So, does it stand for micrograms?  Should we use slang?  Aghh!  Help, please.

Exactly the way MD dictates it
Subject: Exactly the way MD dictates it

If the patient could see anything at all (I had one today where the patient could see 20/1760), then the MD would have given the value, but when there is nothing there, you just type nothing. I have a verbatim account, but even if I didn't, I still would not change it to 20/0 as that lone "0" could be mistaken as something else.
