how to type out Type I Aortic aneurysm

I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.
Subject: I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.
I have had that happen to me before, and I was told by QA to not move things around in the report, maybe that is the same for you, but if I were typing this report, I would type it in the order as is dictated, even if that means typing it under the heading PLAN. Also, his vitals were probably taken at the end of the exam as they were repeated, so it would make sense to type them again under that heading. Hope that helps!

This can be very crippling disease. I have a friend who is only 33 and cannot even scratch her own nose. She cannot turn over in bed or do anything for herself. It is a progressive illness. When she was little, she could walk and do everything a normal child could and by the time she was a teenager she was in a wheelchair. Now she is completely disabled.
Thanks for all the info
