Your not the one that looks like an idiot. It is the doctor. And it isn't your place to protect them in any way shape or form...

(Why, oh why can't they move comments along with the OP? Grrr...)
Anyway, if this is the sentence, "There are three cysts identified within the right kidney, the largest of which is in the upper pole and measures 6.5 cm in diameter," then no comma is used before "which." The prepositional phrase begins with ", the largest of which."
I was taught years ago that you put a comma before "which" if it is referring to the immediate preceding phrase.
In this sentence, it refers to the former phrase: "This is a 51-year-old pleasant gentleman who had a shave biopsy of the left shoulder which revealed a possible Clark's nevus." The "which" refers to the shave biopsy, not the left shoulder.
In this one, it refers to the immediately preceding phrase: "Will continue the sertraline but will increase the amount to 75 mg daily, which would be 50 mg plus 25 mg." The "which" refers to the 75 mg daily, not the sertraline.
Is this still correct? Anyone?

her shoulder by herself. "Passive" means when the doctor is moving the extremity. So, "actively" here is correct as far as the patient moving the extremity by herself in flexion and elevation as the other helper indicated.

how to type out Type I Aortic aneurysm

I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.
Subject: I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.
I have had that happen to me before, and I was told by QA to not move things around in the report, maybe that is the same for you, but if I were typing this report, I would type it in the order as is dictated, even if that means typing it under the heading PLAN. Also, his vitals were probably taken at the end of the exam as they were repeated, so it would make sense to type them again under that heading. Hope that helps!
