Here is what the letters stand for. From About.com: Special Needs Children
Subject: Here is what the letters stand for. From About.com: Special Needs Children
The initials in V.A.T.E.R. syndrome refer to five different areas in which a child may have abnormalities: Vertebrae, Anus, Trachea, Esophagus, and Renal (kidneys). There may also be cardiac and limb conditions, which changes the acronym to V.A.C.T.E.R.L. A child diagnosed with one of these syndromes will not necessarily have a problem in every area, but a constellation of birth defects involving many of the areas. There is no currently known cause, but a gene defect is believed to be involved.

you have exhausted all your references, I'd type it the way he spelled it and then flag it, saying that the doctor spelled it that way. That covers you. Docs are notorious bad spellers, but he might be privy to something so new it's not on the books yet.

I can't find anything close in my QLEDR. This is in a medication list, so I have no clue what it is for and no dosage is given other than 1 tablet once a day. This is a cardiac patient with multiple cardiac diagnoses. No other past medical history listed. Any ideas? He spells the majority of his medications incorrectly and I have been able to find all except this one.
