I type it according to the Tessier Surgical Work Book and there is no "s" at the end of Ringer, just lactated Ringer solution.

Subject: lactated Ringer's or Ringer?

I have always typed Ringer's and the doc is saying that, but in my Saunders Pharmaceutical Word Book 2007 it has lactated Ringer and Ringer solution (now Ringer irrigation).  So confusing. Why do they do that??? LOL  Has it changed???

Yes, I have to agree w/ MT50.  I also have always typed Ringer's... but there is that rule on eponyms.  Still, it sounds strange, to me anyway.

Subject: Ringer's

That is correct; however, it is most always dictated "lactated Ringer's" and that is also correct.  In this case, it would be Ringer's (possessive)... Hope this helps also.

Subject: I trust Tessier before Stedman's and for 25 yrs

Back in the early 80s I loved Stedman's but I found way too many discrepancies, even called them once and they said if we find any other discrepancies to feel free to call them and let them know because WE are the MTs and they need our input.


However, I prefer Claudia Tessier's Surgical Word Book, Vera Pyle's Medical Terminology book, and then the internet where you can find the manufacturer's website and see the CORRECT spelling.


Just my humble opinion....JMHO....


and we all can agree to disagree too....

Buckwalter retractor and Buchwalter retractor (rather than the correct Bookwalter?). There were several others, but I can't recall them now. I gave my book away about 15 years ago, and strictly use Stedman's Med/Surg Equipment words, Stedman's Surgery words, and Vera Pyle's latest. I think what you're seeing is an entry before Hasson was verified. The same thing happened with Steffee/Steffe and Veress/Verress. If there were two spellings for Hasson/Hassan, I would think Vera's book would clarify. Time will tell, though. Ya never know in this business.
