Subject: For future reference, depends on how it's used.

Per Gregg Reference (of grammar, usage, style, etc.), is lower case--master's degree, bachelor of arts degree, doctorate-- when used generally like in your example.  But capitalized when used as a title, e.g., Jane Doe, Doctor of Philosophy.

Could "Overreactive lispossum" be "overreactive specimen?"

Originally, I was thinking "overreactive splenism" which I would edit to "overreactive spleen" but diagnoses are usually NOT listed with lab values, except maybe as a statement "consistent with..." so that probaby would be wrong, although abnormal cells listed are found in hypo- and hypersplenism.

In any case, just thoughts for future since this is a day or 2 later than original post.

Also, I saw serocytes in lab terms, and assume it should be "spherocytes." At one of my very first temporary transcription jobs at a laboratory, I had mispelled "spherocytes" and "schistocytes" and doctor whose report I typed had me come back to his office and look at slides to see the cells so I would remember in the future.

Have a great day.

Subject: For future reference, have reports similar to this quite often. I do transcribe them verbatim, this way there is no finger pointing on what we as transcriptionists take as a "liberty" in interpretation.

If it is ever in question, they can go back to the dictators original dictation (if available) and see that is what he/she said and they are directly responsible for the content of their reports.

Hope this helps.

Subject: s/l mark-type pigmentation?

On the physical exam in the category of extremities, the doctor says "The patient has bilateral chronic stasis changes in the lower extremities.  There is associated [s/l mark-type profigmentation] with no edema, erythema or warmth"


I'm assuming the "profigmentation" is maybe pigmentation that he just stumbled on but I'm not positive on that.  The patient was being seen for bilateral lower extremity recurrent cellulitis.


Any ideas?

Using a question mark to indicate doubt or uncertainty sm
BOS says:
Use an ending question mark to indicate doubt or uncertainty.

Sometimes, particularly with diagnoses, a question mark is placed before a
statement in order to indicate uncertainty.

Placement either before or after the questionable material is acceptable, but
do not place the question mark both before and after.

Ex:

His cholesterol levels were high normal (or minimally elevated?).

D: Diagnosis: Angina question mark
T: Diagnosis: Angina?
or Diagnosis: ?Angina.
not Diagnosis: ?Angina?

Note: There is no space after the question mark in ?Angina.
