Subject: New standard states:

And I quote: "Numerals, or figures, stand out from the surrounding text and serve a functional purpose in medical reports, where they should be used almost exclusively as opposed to spelled-out numbers.

Use numerals for fractions.

Spell out numbers that begin a sentence.

Zero is always spelled out when it stands alone.

Spell out numbers used as pronouns.
