Caries: Scientific name for dental cavities; it is both singular and plural.

regurgitation for prophylactic coverage, could doctor be slurring "antibiotics?"
antibiotics for dental exams and dental work
Subject: antibiotics for dental exams and dental work

This is SBE prophylaxis (subacute bacterial endocarditis) which is given to patients with heart valve disease.  When dental work is done, this causes the bacteria from the mouth to go into the system and can cause vegetation on one or more of the heart valves....which is a very serious and possibly life-threatening situation.  Most surgeries require this be done before the procedure, even certain nonsurgical procedures that may be less invasive, require it as well.  However, the guidelines are less stringent than they were previously.  Hope this helps.

Subject: Caries

Hi, all, and a happy holiday to everyone.

Am I correct in my thinking that caries (as in dental) is singular as well as plural? I just had a doc dictate "there was a large cary." I think that only refers to Cary Grant.

Does anyone know for sure?

Thanks.

The other day I posted for dental help. FYI, got feedback today and could kick myself now.


Here's the sentence:


Dissection buccally was carried inferiorly along the lateral cortical plate and the mandible to identify the mental foramen and (S/L insexapine nerve).


The word was mental foramen and its exiting nerve. He really mumbled that together.


Anyhow, thanks for trying to help.

Subject: meds prescribed taken AC and HS see msg

Suddenly Im very confused - I have always typed it as taken at q.h.s. but now the doc says to be taken AC and HS.  Is this typed capital letters per my Abbreviations book or a.c. and h.s.?  I have the same problem with a.m. and p.m.   I assume there is a rule about this but not sure what the latest would be.  This is a new doc and I normally do not type meds so I am rusted. Thanks in advance.

Sounds like they are stating either "Zometa" or "someta" to be prescribed for insomnia.  I can't find anything on someta (or anything close to that spelling) and Zometa looks like it is for bone health and can cause insomnia but probably isn't prescribed to prevent insomnia.  Any suggestions?  Thanks!
