they dictated AV fistula? If so give 'em AV fistula
Subject: they dictated AV fistula? If so give 'em AV fistula
as far as post-end versus postend.....hyphens are used for clarity and in this case I would have used the hyphen.....because it is usually end-stage renal disease....I'd give 'em post-end
If your account is verbatim and they said AV fistula give them what they said. If you are allowed to expand, you could give them arteriovenous fistula.....
HTH (hope that helps)..........

Subject: You might not like this one, but I would go by what QA said on the previous report. This way you have verification in writing of why you chose to keep it this way in case you are questioned on your choice of interpretation. I know we are looking for common sense but we are transcriptions and as we know that is not even close to always being the case in MD dictations.

Subject: I took this from a previous post about eponyms... sm
According to BOS
eponyms
"While the use of the possessive form with eponyms remains acceptible, AAMT's preference is generally to drop the possessive form.
Apgar score, Babinski sign, Down syndrome, Gram stain, Hodgkin lymphoma.
Sometimes an awkward construction calls for use of the possessive form. This patient suffers from Hodgkin's."
