Everything can't come from the BOS. Some things we do have to 'wing it' so to speak. I have a verbatim account and can only type PRN, no periods, all caps, so that's how it would be done. P.r.n. Tylenol doesn't look right, so I would have to put it PRN Tylenol.

she was looking for the plural form of decubitus, saying she got stumped by it. I responded very simply to that. I did not feel I needed to correct her use of "pleural" as was not her question and just quickly wanted to help her, and checked my medical references to do so. I pointed out that there are no plural form for decubitus. This is all correct. What is your problem. I was trying to help an MT with correct and verfified medical transcription help, now I know why I stay away from any message boards, always someone who wants a fight. Whatever.
