take out the comma between nucleations and right; I would also take out the comma between right and x 3, I would place a comma between fifth and "and". This is really a confusing sentence, as I am not sure if it means "right times 3" or right third, second, and fifth DIP joints. that would make a difference in the punctuation.

But you're right...I have a lot of CNPs and PA-Cs who are constantly saying the wrong things. For example, the CNP who keeps saying dilution instead of deciliter for the UA, when she does an eye exam she always says the lids were averted instead of everted. She SPELLS it for me and always sounds like she's disgusted because she keeps spelling it with an A and I keep typing it with an E. It has always been Everted. Averted means to look away. I type these things up for years and years and then someone comes along like her and I start questioning myself, and maybe I'm typing it wrong...it just drives me crazy.

AND I was taught through my medical transcription school, to change things like this to make a readable, correct sentence. Verbatim was not acknowledged, as we all know that some docs cannot put a sentence together verbally in the English structural rules. I was taught that a good transcriptionist always changes incorrect things to become correct things...not just *this is what he says, so this is what I give 'em.* attitude. Personally, I would change the sentence to read * A __ cm hardware was tried.* It does not change the meaning of the sentence one iota and sounds much better, at least to me. But that is me and my opinion. My many years of proper English schooling just will not let that sentence pass as is. The hair on the back of my neck stands up when I know it is incorrect. This is just my opinion, and I don't need to be slammed for it. I would really like to know what your employer has to say about it Hayseed, if you ever get a response.
