CPAP vs. C-PAP
Which way is definitely correct? My reference books all say CPAP, but I have seen it somewhere as C-PAP. Doctor on "verbatim" account spelling it out for me at "C-PAP" (specifically mentioning the dash). Is there any way type it correctly and still adhere to "verbatim"? What a time waster. Thanks.

I have a doctor physicially go into a report and change what I had transcribed to C-pap, so each doctor wants things his way. With a hyphen does not change the meaning and if a doc wants things certain ways and it is verbatim, the you almost always have to go with the doc unless it is totally wrong. I would refer it to my supervisor.
