Makes us think they are not even trying. A good spellcheck program along with Google can be helpful.

The design of the Word, Drugs, Abbreviations, Style, and Productivity boards are specifically to get assistance.
If there are posters being rude, bullying, or abusive to those asking questions on these boards, please report those messages. There is a box at the top right of your screen on every message that says Report Message.
Indeed, if posters do not want to be helpful on these boards, they should (and will, if reported) stay off of them.
Let me know if you have any problems.

Subject: Thought I should follow up in view of the additional posts below. sm
While the gastrocnemius and soleus are 2 separate muscles, they come together in a common insertion to form the Achilles tendon, hence the frequent references to the "gastrocsoleus complex." The term "gastrocsoleus" would not be seen in Grey's because the information deals with the anatomy of each muscle individually, but that does not mean the two cannot be referred to and transcribed in the above manner.
Stedman's shows it as "gastrocnemius-soleus complex" while HPI Orthopedic Words and Phrases makes a reference to "gastroc/soleus." I have typed it as one word for many years and have never seen any QA objection to it. The bottom line will be, if your particular company or account has a preference, then go with that. In the absence of such a stated preference, however, it is acceptable to transcribe "gastrocsoleus" when dictated. Some will view it perhaps as slang or whatever while others will see it as merely constructing a medical term as done within the acceptable parameters of medical terminology for the purpose of referencing anatomical structures that share a point of commonality.

Some posts just got deleted as we were trying to help someone. My answer to her format question was: Some of my docs do dictate each artery's findings separately and I number them along the left under each other. Just use your common sense so you end up with a clear report. Good luck. I remember when I first started doing caths and it wasn't easy.

Kondremul: Promotes gentle predictable regularity of normal bowel movement. Creamy liquid pours easily and leaves no oily aftertaste. Pleasant tasting and smoothe acting.

Thanks for replying so fast. Actually, my question was on the J point elevation s/l "1 and ?" Kind of sounded like 1 and the letter "o", but doesn't make sense. Didn't know if maybe he was speaking of a certain lead, but doesn't sound close to anything. Thanks so much for your time!!!! :-)
number rules?
Subject: number rules?
Two of my teachers taught different number rules. One, said that they should almost always be numeral form. The other said that numbers are usually spelled out.
I believe the Book of Style says numerals are usually appropriate, accept for zero, at the beginning of a sentence, drug admin. abrev's., etc..
Anyone? Numerals right? With acceptions? I'm just starting.

'several' isn't a number

'Several' isn't a number, is it? I don't think it is. To me, the sentence looks odd with the abbreviation following the word 'several.'
Maybe 'several' is a number
Subject: Maybe 'several' is a number
In this case, I just think of a number as being something like 1-1000 (or to infinity and beyond!), and maybe I just sound like I want to be correct on this. I wonder if I'm confusing a former employers rules/guidelines with the BOS. Who knows?
