ASR And FIO2
Sep 09, 2010

ASR always has it listed as "FIO2," but I always end up changing it to "FiO2" because I'm afraid of getting dinged on on an audit.  Is it acceptable to leave it as "FIO2" with a capital I , just simply a preference issue?  Has anyone ever gotten dinged by leaving it the way ASR has it?  I know ASR always types S1-S2 for heart sounds, which is incorrect, so don't really trust its accuracy that much!! Thanks in advance for any feedback!! =) ...
