Latin and English, but I believe he said he was doing VR work, and the program changed the phrase to this abbreviation. Somebody had to have told the program to do that, so it makes one think that is what the client has requested, so I hate to tell somebody the old rules that I follow when it could get them in trouble with their QA person.

Hard 25 of Solu-Medrol
Subject: Hard 25 of Solu-Medrol

Hi, everyone.

I'm transcribing a report in which the doc says "Patient had a hard 25 of Solu-Medrol." At least I think that's what she said. Has anyone heard of this construction used before? I have no background info on this since it's an addendum to a report dictated earlier.

Sorry I don't have more info.

Thanks.
