How would I type this? Cardiology question - sm - Linda


Posted: Oct 07, 2011

Doctor states: I told her that there are certain possible cardiac etiologies of lightheadedness including a "tachy or bradyarrhythmia." Should I type out "tachyarrhythmia or bradyarrhythmia" or just leave it as above? Thanks!

would type as dictated - JMO

.

I would type: tachy- or bradyarrhythmia - Maggie May

[ In Reply To ..]
because the "arrhythmia" part is omitted. But I'm not sure where I read that rule, I will see if I can find it. Anybody else familiar with it?

I agree with Maggie May tachy- or bradyarrhythmia - anon

Just like infra- or supraclavicular adenopathy, hypo- or hyperthyroid symptoms, etc.
