Subject: 33-2/7ths weeks for preterm labor 
  I always struggle with transcribing of numbers.  How would you put the figure of 33 and 2/7ths weeks premature labor?  It seems akward whichever way I put it.

established patient who is s/l 25 and 5 7ths weeks of gestational age  sm 
Subject: established patient who is s/l 25 and 5 7ths weeks of gestational age  sm 
  The patient is not 25 years old but she dictates these numbers and I am unsure how to type it for it to make sense.  It sounds like she is saying, "patient is 25 and 5/7 weeks gestational age.  Do they dictate gestational age by the 7ths for days of the week?  Would you type it 25-5/7 week gestational age?

 Dictator says GCCT negative, and I have to expand the abbreviation, and I cannot find anything in my abbrev. books.  This is in the lab testing where they talk about the patient having an O positive blood type, rubella immune, GBBS negative, then she says GCCT or GC CT negative.  Can anyone tell me how to expand GCCT?  
Thanks...

International Labor Partnership 
Subject: International Labor Partnership 
  It's when they use MTs from other countries, like India, Pakistan, or the Phillipines.  They outsource the work to them over the Internet, which gets done for less money.  Some hospitals ask for this because they want to save on transcription costs.

word help for labor/delivery report 
Subject: word help for labor/delivery report 
  "but despite adequate contractions with pitocin and (s/l mon of a day) units of 180 to 250, she failed to show any further dilatation." 
 
I can't figure out that (s/l mon of a day).  It's all run together like it's one word.  I can't find any meds used during labor that sound like that!  Or maybe it really says "of a day", then what is the "mon" part? 
 
Any help would be appreciated!
