Subject: d-dimer and a s/l
I have a lab test here that the doctor is dictating the results on and I recognized the D-dimer but it s/l he is saying 'parallel' after it. Is there another test that goes hand in hand with this? I've not ever heard it if there is. Thanks in advance!

The whole sentence is: GU: No dysuria, frequency or urgency. Previous labs in the hospital reveal a creatinine of 1.4 with a blood sugar of 205. Free T4 was a little low, with a normal TSH. D-dimer parallel was negative and CBC was normal.
Thank you!

When is Staphylococcus not capital? This is confusing me.
I always thought Staphyloccocus was capitalized until on my QA I was told different, but can't find the reason and it's been a while since this happened. Now it bothers me not knowing how to determine whether I'm capitalizing it when its not supposed to be. Can you help me with this? Thanks

There may be other opinions out there, but since it is supposed to be pH, keep it that way even if it does start the sentence. I like the idea of adding the word THE to the front, though. That works too and solves the problem! Good thinking!!!
