Dangerous abbv?
Subject: Dangerous abbv?
I believe the list of dangerous abbreviations says not to use "&" symbol, but to use "and." D&C should be D and C; O&P should be O and P, etc. Not sure if I'm remembering this correctly.
Does anyone know if this sounds correct? Thanks.

And I was wondering if he may be referring to a dept at hospital for prosthesis fitting, as he later mentions IPOF/IPOP again as a consultation.
I'm thinking that the doc may not have completed his train of thought. He goes from saying the patient has what he thinks is a MRSA infection just above the stump, then he's dictating something else. Previous notes are no help, as they read as a disjointed thought process as well.
Oh well - thanks for your help!

I don't believe T-L would necessarily be incorrect, but LS is listed in Steadman's as lumbosacral (also L/S is acceptable). If you go by that reasoning, TL or T/L would be correct. TL seems the best one to me, only because I type LS for lumbosacral. But ask QA for the safe bet.

I think it would take a lot of context or experienced ear to listen to take a stab at this one. Could be an abbreviation such as PCP or an abbreviation of some local health clinic or something. For some reason the first thing that popped into my mind was CDC, as in Center for Disease Control, although I don't know if they give out drugs. With it being 5 drugs and the term "given", I was thinking AIDS, and then who might give those drugs to impoverished patients. But then again, maybe the patient had cancer and was given a 5-drug cancer regimen by some local cancer center. Can you see why context is sooooo important?
