Subject: PT/NOT ordered
For a patient who had back surgery and then came back with severe leg spasms. She was treated with IV Ancef, IV fluids at 80 and IM Toradol every 6 hours. She was on a PCA, which was later stopped and changed to oral medication. She received IV Decadron x 1 for the spasms, IV Pepcid x 1 and PT/NOT was ordered.
What would the PT/NOT stand for?
