The term I'm hearing sounds like "elegant"  On this report he is saying "elegant REM cycling."   Could the word really be elegant?  What does this mean?  TIA.

I haven't used one in a long time, but
Subject: I haven't used one in a long time, but

I would either call tech support for Sony, I was trying to google and troubleshoot that way, but couldn't find anything, or find an office repair shop in your area as some of them still fix those machines, that way you don't have to go out and buy one.  Or if you have work you have to do now, I have had to go out and get one in an emergency just to finish the work while I got mine repaired, then had a back-up machine.  They really don't make a good machine anymore and they break down frequently, in my opinion.  I don't know how long you have had yours or how many hours a day you're on it, but it might be time to replace it.  Sorry, I wish I had a clear-cut solution to tell you.  It's so frustrating when our equipment fails us and we have so much work to get done.

do you need to know how to spell it, but also learn what it is that you are typing (and save yourself the embarassment of having one of your reports make the "laughing rounds" at the hospital or company that you're working for). :>)

Sentence maybe would help. The way you spelled it, it could be the word biased, but since you are capitalizing it, are you suggesting it is a type of equipment or something?

I thought it sounded like "flaff" too, but I'm presuming it's "flat". Considering I'm just in a class right now, my teacher will correct it if it's wrong, and I'll let you know (though I presume it doesn't matter much by now).

Quite easy if they stick to the prescribed "script".  I was used to the CC, HPI etc.  It is quite a "culture shock" to do a SOAP note after that but easy enough and fast enough. Most use their own template etc.
