SMA-7 "CO2 30" ? by process of elimination... sm
Subject: SMA-7 "CO2 30" ? by process of elimination... sm
SMA-7=sodium, potassium, chloride, bicarbonate (or CO2), glucose, BUN, creatinine. Glucose and bicarbonate are your missing values; 30 is a normal value for CO2...so my guess is they're saying "CO2 30" and leaving out the glucose value....

Each vertebra has 2 transverse processes and 1 spinous process.
Subject: Each vertebra has 2 transverse processes and 1 spinous process.
So, depending on what the doc says, the spinous process of C5 would be correct. Also, the spinous processes of the cervical spine would be a correct statement. Spinous process of the cervical spine would be incorrect as there are 7 cervical vertebral bodies with 3 processes each.

Subject: i mean, if bilateral is before is it singular and sm
how do you hand bilaterally. I am very confused on the singular and plural regarding these because doctors say it both ways.
For example, examination of the hip, knee, and ankle is normal bilaterally...singular.
So, is it always singular when you use these words? or an equivalent (left and right lower extremity or extremities, etc)
I have been doing this for 3 months but this seems to keep coming up and i am hearing it dictated both ways. Thanks ahead of time for any help :)
