African-American or African American
Subject: African-American or African American

For a long time, ASR was typing African-American.  Now, it's typing African American without the hyphen.  Does anyone know which way is correct?


Thank you so much in advance.  I hope you're having a great transcription day and getting at least some easy docs.  I can't believe resident changeover is just a few months away.  Oh, how I dread that....


 


 


 


African-American hyphenated?
Subject: African-American hyphenated?

I was always taught African-American was hyphenated, and that's the way it came up on the ASR for the longest time.  Now, it comes up without the hypen.  Thoughts?  We don't hyphenate Caucansian-male. 


One thought - if the Indians are using our ASR, they should have to submit corrections before they are changed. 


Just call me cornfused and befuzzled.

A 22-gauge long spinal needle was inserted directly into the (s/l-THEP)  joint.  It's not hip.  I'm sure of that.  It sounds like it starts with a TH or an F.  This is for a fusion for a spinal fracture.

Subject: Need help with ortho - Doc has a slight British accent.

The patient returns today three years after her anteroposterior reconstruction for flat back deformity. No pain. She is here, however, because she has some prominence in her back that has gotten progressively more pronounced.

On examination, there is s/l right-sided hooks. I believe this needs to be removed. I feel she is solid because she has no pain.

Thanks for any help!!
