Subject: I have sticky notes everywhere with different stages, grades, etc. sm
I think I used to think most stages were roman numerals and most grades were arabic but there are way too many exceptions so I try to figure out which one it is for each specific instance and then write it on my growing list. BOS says types are arabic, roman numerals, or capital letters depending on type referred to. I WISH there was a website with all of the different stages, grades, types, etc. listed. Does anyone know of such a thing??

Roman numerals for stages are used
Subject: Roman numerals for stages are used
only for cancer the majority of the time. There are some exceptions, but the majority of the time it is roman numerals. For example, kidney disease is arabic, fractures are arabic. If it is not associated with cancer then it is more than likely arabic. You can always look it up and tell which is which, which is BOS2 suggests.

A good tip that I rcvd either here or on MTNetizens email group.....
In oncology at least:
Staging is in Roman numerals, and remember by reciting "The Romans are on the stage"....
Hence stage III breast cancer, etcetera...
Class, grade, etc, are with Arabic numerals...
I cannot speak, though, for other specialties..

Garden is capped per my ortho book.
From googling I suspect it should be Garden type IV fracture. There are hits where it is referred to as grade, but the ones that call it a type look more authentic to me. More research might be in order.

hypertension stages
Subject: hypertension stages
Hi,
Anyone know if stages of hypertension are now to be noted with Arabic numerals? I have always been taught that they are to be in Roman numeral form. If you have the answer to this, please send me the reference as well, as I haven't been able to find this in any of my medical term books/references. Even my Stedman's Cardiology book doesn't have information on this as far as I've been able to find. Thanks so much for any help!

Hi,
Thanks, but I need an actual medical reference, not a website of a group of doctors. I'm trying to find the official answer. I appreciate your time, though!

now "always"...before I offend someone else who has been told to type it with roman numerals. Been doing this too long and have seen too many facilities/radiologists set their own rules on how they want it typed and it basically boils down to the fact that it's their report..they call the shots.

Use arabic numerals for all numbers.
Subject: Use arabic numerals for all numbers.
The current standard in transcription is to use arabic numerals (1, 2, 3...)for all numbers, even under the number 10, because they stand out on the page and are less likely to be overlooked or misinterpreted.
