No, I do not have any reference books with the word "supertherapeutic" listed. (sm)
Subject: No, I do not have any reference books with the word "supertherapeutic" listed. (sm)

Stedman's electronic dictionary gives the definition of the prefix "super" as: In excess, above...

Webster's dictionary gives the definition of the prefix "super" as: over and above; higher in quantity.

Pharmaceutical documents use the term "supertherapeutic" doses.

Subject: *LOL*....good answer...SM

also sometimes in just reading the board.....the one-word answers to a newbie I think might seem a little curt...so I like to help and give a little extra even though NOBODY taught me a thing about transcription, had to learn everything on my own back in the decades pre-computers.  *LOL* - so it's nice for me to read a more complete response to somebody....which is why I sometimes, au occasion, do go the extra mile to explain, especially since for years I, myself, thought that Mohs was MOHS....until just a couple of years ago.....


Just my way of doing things, not to fight/disagree with anyone else in this thread.

NWMNMT:Good grief, good grief, good grief..If this is the case, the doctor should also explain
Subject: NWMNMT:Good grief, good grief, good grief..If this is the case, the doctor should also explain

the meaning in an ADDENDUM.
How do you know what the doctor meant? GOOD GRIEF, are you the know-it-all (hyphens must be put here, as it is used as a noun!) on this board? Get over yourself!

Who understands what it means without an explanation?
The MOST obvious is apparently like I understood it:
5 packs in 1 year.

Maybe the doctor really meant this, 5 packs per year, so essentially a nonsmoker.

GOOD GRIEF, get over yourself!

drug dosages listed with no mg

Is it acceptable to type drug dosages with the number but not the unit of measure. For example Zocor 10 every night. I believe this may be confused with 10 pills instead of mg. What's acceptable on a verbatim account?

Using propofol (DIPRIVAN) to sedate patients during endoscopic and other diagnostic procedures is gaining momentum in a growing number of hospitals, outpatient surgery centers, and physician offices.(1) In trained hands, propofol offers many advantages over other drugs used for sedation because it:

* Has a rapid onset (about 40 seconds) and a short duration of action;
* Allows patients to wake up, recover, and return to baseline activities and diet sooner than some other sedation agents;
* Reduces the need for opioids, thus resulting in less nausea and vomiting.

I don't believe T-L would necessarily be incorrect, but LS is listed in Steadman's as lumbosacral (also L/S is acceptable). If you go by that reasoning, TL or T/L would be correct. TL seems the best one to me, only because I type LS for lumbosacral. But ask QA for the safe bet.
