Also, I worked in a lab for many years, and gram-negative and gram-positive are not capitalized. Gram is the name of the doctor or scientist who came up with the staining test, Gram stain, so that is capped.

Also, just FYI, gram-negative is not capitalized.
Probably too late, I'm sure. Better late than never, I guess.

I have an email in to my supe to clarify this, but how do you transcribe "gram-negative" in a report?
Capitalized or not?
I have done it both ways and have been counted off each time for it, so I am looking for a little clarity here!
TIA!

In steadman ortho, the only time it refers to draw test is a foot/ankle test for subtalar motion. Otherwise, they only have drawer test, not draw. I have never heard draw used for the knee, and I have been doing ortho for about 6 years now.

Stedman's Ortho - plantarflexion
Subject: Stedman's Ortho - plantarflexion
Stedman's Orthopaedic & Rehab Words (5th Edition) has it as one word. I could not find it anywhere in that book as two words. Personally, this is the way that I have always typed it.
On the other hand, if you look in Dorland's (31st Edition) under flexion, it says, "plantar flexion."
I am not sure if either way is more accepted over the other. Perhaps client preference.
Have a nice holiday.
Stedman's Ortho Book does have a Strayer--sm
procedure listed. Found Strayer also by google search.
