I have them in also as "intravenous" when they say that instead of IV, however, my system isn't good for that; I always end up looking down at my glossary. Maybe I should put some common denominator letter in for those or something. Any suggestions?
Full Version: IV
Our MQ office now has instructed us to spell out IV so that would eliminate your decision as to which choice to make. Thanks for your list! I have to only put it in 1 way.
Harrie, I just add an h to the short when I want the full expansion --
ivh = intravenous, etc.
In fact, I use that h to death.
nh = normal
nhh = nursing home
nhhh = Nursing Home
hh = history of
hhh = hiatus hernia
gesu = general surgery
gesuh = General Surgery
and all like that. It's a good, strong finger, and it's on its home row!
ivh = intravenous, etc.

You're welcome, Lori, and I kind of wish we'd get instructed to do it one way or the other myself!
Carol, the H key at the end to differentiate sounds like a complete winner. It sure is on the home row. Thanks, I will modify them tonight!
