Body temperature
Subject: Body temperature

Dictator states the patient's temperature is 75.7.  (Patient is having a surgical consult for abdominal pain).  This is the third time in as many weeks I've had physician dictate a body temperature in the 70s.  Celsius temp is normally in the 30s, Farenheit - of course - is normally in the high 90s.  Am I missing something here?  Is there some other temperature scale I don't know about?  So far I've flagged them as blanks.


Thanks!
