There is probably something before saturation, like iron or transferrin if it's lumped in with bili labs, IMO. Levaquin is a common med for pneumonia.

As you stated,
Subject: As you stated,
working in different labs, the values and specs would be different; therefore, the other poster is not wrong either. Some labs prefer it one way and others prefer it another. I have always typed it A1c personally, and in my years of experience as a transcriptionist have not had QA correct me on that yet. I just felt that you came on a little strong towards the other poster and yelling isn't really necessary. Have a nice day. :-)

Unless it is stated 3 mm you cannot assume that it is mm
Subject: Unless it is stated 3 mm you cannot assume that it is mm
According to a very detailed message from my QA department with authoratative references cited, unless the first measure is stated specifically, you are making an assumption that _3_ is mm and cannot assign 3-4 mm. They explained I had to use 3 x 4-mm effusion. There are many units of measure and their point was to assume is not permissible as it could be an error.

Subject: She's not testing. She has stated before that she's
new to the field but has been doing ortho so far. She is now doing some family practice.  We were all new once right?  If you read all the posts she even thought she could not post so often, which is not true. You can post as many times as you like I would think. I don't remember reading any rules stating you cannot. I think they just like you to try to stick to the appropriate subject boards accordingly.  I only try to post answers to word help questions if I'm pretty sure. If I'm not sure then I usually don't reply with anything at all.  I had to put my 2 cents in here though being another MT who does have a lot of experience but likes to learn from others as well.

STAT help please
Subject: STAT help please
Right atrial pressure was 13, RV pressure 47/14, PA pressure was 47/22, with a mean of 34, with a wedge of 25. LV "DP" was 118/23. The DP is what I am concerned about. I cannot verify DP, VP, BP one way or another. DP is what it sounds like, but again I cannot find this for sure.
Thank you!
