exactly the same on every report and you have put his ROS and PE in your abbreviation expander, but sometimes he will dictate something out of order.

He says, "EXTREMITIES: No edema, clubbing or cyanosis." Do you go back and change it or do you leave it since he is saying the same thing? And if you don� ...
