Tricky terms
Subject: Tricky terms
If you keep a notebook with alphabetical tabs, you could make yourself a heading under SIGN, and you could also enter the word under all letters it might be pronounced as. That's what I used to do. Saved a lot of time in the long run, especially when you don't have enough information about the patient's problem to know what system or body part they are checking.

latin terms
 Here is the question - how do you type the word "stat" meaning immediately? Its a latin derivitive like n.p.o. , p.r.n. etc, and those are typed in lower case with periods. So would it be "stat." I have also seen it typed STAT with no period. I can't find it anywhere to back up my choice. Any ideas??? Or where to look?? Sue
