Will get EMGs. The patient has evidence of s/l palmarthrorheumatosis. He runs it together, so it may be palm (or palmar) arthrorheumatosis.
Any help is appreciated. :)

I learned 27 years ago to use q.4h. (no spaces), past few years q.4 h. (see msg)
Subject: I learned 27 years ago to use q.4h. (no spaces), past few years q.4 h. (see msg)
Now some are saying it's q. 4h.?? UGH, YUCK!! I have also worked on accounts where it had to be "every 4 hours," and we had to spell out p.r.n. (as needed for). At least we got more characters.
First rule: It is all what the "client/account" wants, not always what the BOS says it is. I realize that language and its usage is constantly changing, but I've seen so many BOS and client flip-flops on so many other things in nearly 3 decades that it's laughable. What isn't laughable is when we get penalized for not knowing what they want, even when they, themselves, don't know or are wrong.
Oh, and I still prefer the old no spaces: q.4h., q.4-6h., q.12h., and so on.....

Prosthetic hip reduction. The term s/l "joo-DAY" views - ??? Thank you for any help.
Following reduction of the hip, single AP fluoroscopy view revealed that the femoral head sat eccentrically in the acetabulum, and this could simply be consistent with poly wear given the large number of dislocations she has sustained. Therefore, _____ (s/l joo-DAY) views, both internal and external oblique views of the right hip were obtained, which confirmed indeed the femoral head was seated in the cup and not anterior or posterior to the cup.

Subject: Wow, thank you. Just years, years and more years of experience
and a constant thirst for learning something new everyday. As we all know this can get to be somewhat boring, but learning from what I transcribe as well as from other transcriptionists keeps me going (money is not bad either). It becomes a challenge. But I can't thank you enough for the kind words.

It is just the "old way" of spelling it, just like orthopaedics and orthopedics.
Subject: It is just the "old way" of spelling it, just like orthopaedics and orthopedics.
One such example is the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons. To an orthopod, this is the correct of spelling it and not "orthopedics" but both are accepted as correct by the general populace. There are places that still use Paediatrics as opposed to Pediatrics, but they are still both right. Just spell it like your QA wants. Every account is different and every client has their own likes and dislikes.
