I checked BOS 3rd Edition, the cardiology - Old Anon Posted: Nov 11th, 2019 - 5:44 pm In Reply to: incomplete blood pressures, adding "systolic" - pywacket
chapter, and there is nothing about adding the word systolic as in your example. It's generally advisable not to add things not actually dictated. Do your account guidelines specify verbatim but to fix grammar errors such as subject/verb agreement, etc.? I personally would not add "systolic" because I think the meaning is clear without adding it and that it is the systolic pressure because that is the value that is most likely to be dictated by itself. How many times have you seen the diastolic pressure dictated by itself without mentioning the systolic pressure? I don't think I've seen that ever. Chances are pretty good that the dictator is talking about the systolic pressure. By any chance, can you ask the dictator is they want you to add the word "systolic?"
