Allis clamps - MSmt


Posted: Jun 02, 2011

The doc says . . .

The cervix was identified and grasped with Allis -es (plural of Allis).  Spelling suggestion?

it would still be Allis clamps sm. - FlaMT

no plural or possesive form needed in this case, just like you would not say Babcock's clamps or Kelly's clamps - you would say Babcock clamps, Kelly clamps.

but "clamps" isn't used - MSmt

He doesn't say clamps. He just refers to Allises. Would you change this even though it isn't dictated that way?

Allis sm. - FlaMT

Oh, he doesn't say clamps. In that case, I would type as dictated - never add or pad what isn't stated, so I would type it as Allises (as awkward as it looks). I would NOT add the word clamp(s) - just type as dictated.
Ok, thanks. - MSmt
