Subject: S/l * Baby dropped a lung * when taken off CPAP.

The baby is a preemie. This sounds pretty clear.  Never heard that phrase used this way. Anyone every heard a doc say this?  TIA

CPAP vs. C-PAP
Which way is definitely correct?  My reference books all say CPAP, but I have seen it somewhere as C-PAP.  Doctor on "verbatim" account spelling it out for me at "C-PAP" (specifically mentioning the dash).  Is there any way type it correctly and still adhere to "verbatim"?  What a time waster.  Thanks.

We have been told it is CPAP, however
Subject: We have been told it is CPAP, however

I have a doctor physicially go into a report and change what I had transcribed to C-pap, so each doctor wants things his way. With a hyphen does not change the meaning and if a doc wants things certain ways and it is verbatim, the you almost always have to go with the doc unless it is totally wrong. I would refer it to my supervisor.

Was this for delivery of a baby?
Subject: Was this for delivery of a baby?

I found several references on googling to torticollis and hemorrhage, either SCM or intracranial, etc., from traumatic/difficult deliveries. I also found a reference to a type of shaken-baby syndrome where they had been playing and tossing the baby in the air. Too late, I'm sure, but just thought I'd throw this in for the heck of it. It's another exciting night here...so studying the word board :-)

Subject: Or the baby might have been laterally positioned. (sm)

That's how I was. My twin sister was positioned correctly, so they delivered her first, then turned me externally. Mom was asleep for the delivery (back in 1963), and I guess she woke up with pain and bruising from it. She says it was a big deal; they had her sign so all the students could watch. No privacy for my delivery!

This paragraph shows AZT for baby -see message
Subject: This paragraph shows AZT for baby -see message

If an HIV positive woman is taking AZT then it will probably be recommended that her baby is given AZT (usually as a syrup) for the first six weeks of its life starting 8-12 hours after birth. Alternatively, if the mother has taken AZT and 3TC during labour then an effective regime for the baby would be one week of AZT and 3TC.

If only limited AZT is available then one week of AZT can be given to the baby. If only single dose AZT is available then the baby can have this combined with a single dose of NVP, and if no AZT is available then the baby can have a single dose of NVP to help protect it.

...but I'm pretty sure it can't be obsessive compulsive disorder--unless it's someone who *really* is into scheduling  c-sections or is quite tidy.   Anyway, the irony of transcribing OB/GYN for me is that although I personally have all the parts, I absolutely have no clue what's going on half the time.  There are always so many acronyms.  I'd appreciate any help someone could throw my way.  Thanks!
