Furthermore, if you add an
'and', THEN you have to enter a comma in front of

, as well as z

The only help I can give you here (very confusing)
Subject: The only help I can give you here (very confusing)

is that "symmatric" should be "symmetric," a very common term.

Are you taking a test?

extremities (check your spelling)

Also your "Intact relflexy in purse" may be "intact reflexes in pursestrings." Difficult to determine without listening myself.

They usually say "normal sensory examination to light touch" not "a light touch."

When is Staphylococcus not capital? This is confusing me.
I always thought Staphyloccocus was capitalized until on my QA I was told different, but can't find the reason and it's been a while since this happened.  Now it bothers me not knowing how to determine whether I'm capitalizing it when its not supposed to be.  Can you help me with this?  Thanks

Answer!
Subject: Answer!

Don't know about BOS, but leukocyte esterase is just a test for an enzyme that might indicate a uti...so in my experience, it's either a positive or negative result. If he gives you actual numbers or ranges (10-20), then he's talking about actual white blood cells (leukocytes).

At least that's my understanding.

Hope that helps!

If you cannot find it in the BOS, then chances are it does not matter.....unless the client profile specifically says not to abbreviate it should be OK.......


Answer
Subject: Answer

There is NO hyphen in followup. It is either one word or two words.

Verb is follow up. (The patient will follow up with me).

Noun is followup. (The patient will be seen in followup in 1 week).

Hope that helps! Never use a hyphen with followup.
