difference between abbreviation and
Subject: difference between abbreviation and
When in doubt, I refer to Stedman's Abbreviation book. For example, I have always hated typing "afib" for atrial fibrillation, so I looked it up. In this book, the proper way to abbreviate it is AFib. As far as cc versus mL, that is a Joint Commission requirement, not a BOS issue. Another example is sed rate. There is no approved abbreviation that sounds like sed rate, but the book shows sed rt, which is something I wouldn't use. Sed is truncated, not abbreviated, so I expand to sedimentation rate.
I work for 2 companies with slightly different approaches to a couple of BOS issues, both being very reputable MTSOs, so I have to keep them straight in my head. One wants me to use platelets if that is what is said in the CBC dictation; the other wants me to use platelet count.
You will have to decide what path you need to take.
