Subject: followup

Have finally found second-hand descriptions of AV Moschcowitz's 1912 publication on rectal prolapse, attributing to him a description of female rectal prolapse and its association with abnormally high/deep cul-de-sac. Still can't find definitive reference, but this would seem to be a smoking gun.
re f-up or followup
Subject: re f-up or followup

Use followup for noun and adjective forms (hyphenated is acceptable alternative)ie, the patient did not return for followup.

For verb, only follow up is correct, ie, patient will follow up with her primary care doctor.

Not sure about the esq stuff.
The above is per 2nd edition of BOS.

Followup when adjective..
Subject: Followup when adjective..

As in, "schedule a followup visit."

"Follow up" as in "The patient is to follow up with his primary care physician's office."

"Follow-up" is also sometimes used instead of "followup," but as far as I know hyphenation is becoming less and less preferred in almost all cases.

followup or follow up

The rule most places I've seen in followup for a noun and follow up or follow-up for a verb.  Any official rules floating around out there?  I work for 2 different companies and the editors do it different at each.

help with followup follow up
Subject: help with followup follow up

Found this on another MT board and thought it was EXTREMELY helpful as even as QA I still get confused!


 


I know "follow up" is a verb and "followup" is a noun/adjective but am still having some trouble.  A suggestion is to place a different noun or verb in its place. For example, use eat. He will followup/follow up next week. If you place "eat" in the sentence, "He will eat next week." you know it is a verb because the sentence still makes sense.


followup, follow up
Subject: followup, follow up

I believe it was in Vera Pyle I learned years ago that followup (one word) is a noun, and follow up is an action, a verb. That's how I always remember it.
