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.

I just cannot find any info on these two - sorry this is so long. I am covering for someone and would prefer not to send to the editor!! TIA

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
