Dangerous abbv?
Subject: Dangerous abbv?
I believe the list of dangerous abbreviations says not to use "&" symbol, but to use "and." D&C should be D and C; O&P should be O and P, etc. Not sure if I'm remembering this correctly.
Does anyone know if this sounds correct? Thanks.

And I was wondering if he may be referring to a dept at hospital for prosthesis fitting, as he later mentions IPOF/IPOP again as a consultation.
I'm thinking that the doc may not have completed his train of thought. He goes from saying the patient has what he thinks is a MRSA infection just above the stump, then he's dictating something else. Previous notes are no help, as they read as a disjointed thought process as well.
Oh well - thanks for your help!

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.
