A lot of times the doctor is looking at the handwritten medication list from the patient. Sometimes they can't read their writing. If the doctor himself doesn't know what it is, that is a good indication! Someone in the office will need to look at the chart to decipher. They may even need to call the patient to clarify. So please do not feel bad. We all get these!!

the use of the term "epi" vrs. epinephrine
Subject: the use of the term "epi" vrs. epinephrine
When a Dr. dictates the term "epi" in a report is it ok to type epi or would you type the whole word epinephrine .. it is an Operative report under Findings and Procedure. Is "epi" considered a slang term and not to be typed in a report?
Thanks for your help.

The patient definitely showed some ____________________ symptoms through our examination.
