Dictated: heart rate in the "1 teens to 120s" How do I write 1 teens? If I write 110s is that correct since the teens don't start till 13? Why can't they just keep it stupid simple?

Subject: vital signs
When a doctor dictates the vital signs with only the values and no headings, does anyone fill in headings or do you just give them what they dictated. For example, they say VITAL SIGNS: 110/80, 72, 20, 97.9.

Subject: No they are three separate views.
No they are 3 separate views.
It is the sentence structure that is confusing. Three individual views, but once the word views gets put into the sentence it becomes plural and without the word views it is regarded as singular.
