how would you express measurement - for pulse given as


Posted: Oct 02, 2013

"heart range from 95 to 1-teens?"  Thanks in advance!

"one-teens" - Found in style guide p22 at bottom

So, "95 to one-teens"

Edit: I should qualify, that was given as an example under blood pressure ranges, but I think that should still work!

Thank you! - nm

JVD Measurement
Jan 05, 2011

Thus far I have only had doctors refer to the JVD as flat or raised or sometimes at zero.  Tonight, this doc says "JVD is 0 to 9 degrees/90 degrees" [I think].  I have found a site that describes JVD measurements, and one of them is 90 degrees--but there is no "zero to" part. Now I am second guessing my thought about it being 0 to 90 degrees.  This doc is very sweet, but really mumbles the ends of his sentences. Anyone know about the JVD?? ...


Musculoskeletal Measurement
Sep 01, 2010

Also, I'm still wondering if anyone has any idea about this one, "MRI – mild.  SI/degenerative arthritis.  Imaging of the hands – small effusion of the carpals and (s/l peroneal) tendinopathy." & ...

Anything About Transcriptions Express? 
Apr 18, 2011

Does anyone know anything about Transcriptions Express?  In researching them I found 3 complaints on the Rip Off Report about them.  They, evidently, charge for early termination, is this standard?  They also charge for equipment if you don't have any.  I think this is just a way for some companies to increase their bottom line.  It sounds like these were just disgruntled ex-employees.  There have been no new complaints since 2009 and the BBB doesn't have any complaints about the ...
