Subject: New standard states:
And I quote: "Numerals, or figures, stand out from the surrounding text and serve a functional purpose in medical reports, where they should be used almost exclusively as opposed to spelled-out numbers.
Exceptions: Judgment and discretion are need when deciding but adjacent numbers require one to be spelled out to avoid confusion.
Use a comma to separate adjacent unrelated numerals if neither can be readily expressed in words and the sentence cannot be readily reworded.
Use numerals for fractions.
Spell out numbers that begin a sentence.
Zero is always spelled out when it stands alone.
Spell out numbers used as pronouns.
That should get you started!

As long as a testee is allowed to use reference material, etc. why should they not ask a question here? I personally research all of my own questions, but I do help out those that ask on this site, as well, if I know the answer. Besides, who made the above poster the "tester police" anyway? I saw no complaint from the administrator concerning multiple posts for a similar question.

He (or she, can't tell!) is saying peri J-tube abscess, which I am taking to mean there is an abscess in or around the J-tube insertion site, but peri-J-tube looks terrible and can't find periabscess or peri-abscess to reword the sentence.

some people quote from this thing like it is the Bible or something, and it just is not. There are A LOT of doctors out there who do not adhere by the BOS and prefer their own guidelines. It does not make them wrong. It is just a matter of preference, more than anything. What's the AAMT gonna do, slap your hand if you don't use their guidelines?? shheesh. what a rip!

It is a shame when the doctors do not specify what exactly they want quoted. Tough call, but I agree "too busy". You kind of have to put yourself in the doc's place. Doc asks: Are you exercising? Pt. states: "No, too busy.", or "No, I'm too bus." That sort of thing....
