In verbatim account... HELP PLEASE

I want to change, but on verbatim, I suppose I'm not supposed to, right? I'm relatively new to this and not sure.

He just said the patient was *ambued and could not be intibated due to facial trauma*

If not, it would make more sense like this:
It would help beneficial organisms AND commensals bacteria colonize his colon and help as a first line of protection against disease.
If not, then I would type:
It would help beneficial organisms, commensals bacteria colonozie his colon and help as a first line of protection against disease.
Since they want the beneficial bacteria and commensals bacteria to colonize his colon, there is no need for a comma before colonize.

Valsalva maneuver. Lots of docs turn it into a verb, so I would say if it is verbatim, what you have is how to spell it, all lower case.

I rearrange the sentence so that it is not the beginning. If it is a verbatim account you don't want to change anything but type as both letters in caps, PH.

It depends on the client profile. On my non-verbatim accounts, I leave out the is and are in the vitals signs and for allergies, I just type the Demerol and Penicillin under the heading. That's just how I've been doing it for over 15 years and so far so good :)
Verbatim account, doc said "pee"
Subject: Verbatim account, doc said "pee"
Should I edit to "urinate" or type as is? If as is, should I put it in quotes?
Diagnosis is micturation syncope. Here is the sentence as dictated:
When he tried to pee he got weak, dizzy, hit the floor, did not feel right.
Thanks for any help.

If so, you will won't need to change decease to deceased. If the dictator is ESL, he probably used incorrect verbiage. Agree with other posters about lung CA.

Or how much they expect you to correct. I used to transcribe for a doctor who did the worst run-on sentences and sometimes I would rack my brains trying to figure out where to put punctuation without changing what she said (the account was verbatim except for obvious grammatical errors like subject-verb agreement). Finally I decided, if that's the way she wants to say it, that's what she is going to get. I just made sure that what she was saying made some reasonable kind of sense. She was also notorious for changing her mind half a dozen times in a single sentence, and for not reading her reports before approving them. She once dictated a hysterosalpingogram (test to see if the fallopian tubes are blocked) and let the following impression go out to the requesting physician:
IMPRESSION: Bilateral tubal pregnancy.
instead of
IMPRESSION: Bilateral tubal patency.
(No, I didn't type it!)

I put the word in as dictated with quotes around it and then sent it off to QA. I noticed later that they just deleted it and put a blank and sent it through without the word. Yet one more reason why I hate being on verbatim accounts!

If they don't, I would change the tense to whatever is the norm for that account or that doctor.
If they do require verbatim, I would type it verbatim but let the QA preson know that the doctor had shifted tenses.
But that's just me....

with no BOS wanted per the client, regular accounts who do use BOS and others that do not want it, and others that "just type what I say." So, like I said, refer to your account specifics.

My primary acct is a verbatim but am allowed to make grammatical corrections as long as it does not change the meaning. One of my docs dictated *monna releaser*. After getting my laugh for the day, I typed *I am going to release her*....this one was not an ESL. Gotta getta good laugh once in a while to keep sanity....

I think I have come to that conclusion, also. There is just too much for me to try to fix it all. I'm not sure I would even know where to begin. There is just so much garbage... Thanks for verifying my thoughts, though.... :)
