I did check a fasting lipid profile on her today and a chem 18.
She has hypothyroidism, metabolic syndrome, glucose intolerance, and hypertension. Any clues?
chem-18
Subject: chem-18
It's a chemistry panel. There's also chem-7, chem-14, and chem-20, probably others. For instance, the chem-14 is the CMP and does 14 chemistries: glucose, calcium, albumin, total protein, sodium, potassium, etc. I don't know offhand what all is in the chem-18.
Chem-7
Subject: Chem-7
Good Question!
I use Chem-7 because this test is the same as SMA-7, and I find the SMA tests listed with hyphens in Stedman's Abbreviations, Acronyms, & Symbols.
I would think that any of the 3 ways would probably be okay to use unless your client/employer has a preference.

there must be two openings in the nasal cavity. Ostium means opening. Meatus means opening also. So if it is as you say, then ostium (opening) meatal (opening) complex is what you are referring to. Plus that, there is no such word as ostio.
I was referring to the osteum (bone) and meatus (opening) or the osteomeatal complex of the nose.
