Hello texpert@... (Jayni),

In reference to your comment:

è " 3 grams per meter squared " -- I just can't remember

è how to type that. The patient received the third

è consolidation chemotherapy with high dose

è _____________ [s/l RDC]. She was given

è ______________ [s/l 3 grams per meter squared] every

è 12 hours on day 1. The _______________ [s/l 3 and

è the 5] and the last dose were withheld because of

è prolonged neutropenia associated with fever in the

è previous cycle. So, this patient received a total of 5

è doses of high-dose [s/l RFC] during this admission.

è She tolerated the treatment well. She was given a

è prescription for Neupogen 400 mg ____________ [s/l in

è the A T] daily for 10 days. She will be followed in the

è office in 10 days with CBC.

Per BOS, meters squared is either m2 with the 2 superscripted or if you don't

have that capibility (which we don't where I work), sq m is acceptable.

For one of your blaks where it talks about 3 and 5 and the last does, it

could be correct, as in the third, fifth and last doses were held. Hope this

helps a little.

Hello texpert@... (Jayni),

In reference to your comment:

è Thanks, Jan. I only THOUGHT I was here by myself.

In reference to your comment:

è Color me sympathetic! I'm committed to be here until

Yup, acute care sure is fun :/ My friends who have " bank hours " type jobs

simply are amazed when I tell them I'm working Christmas Eve and Christmas

Day (only if there's work). My employer only has 2 paid holidays a year:

Thanksgiving and Christmas, so I'll be working New Year's Eve and New Year's

Day.. assuming there's work to do of course The good news is since I'll

be working Christmas Day this year, next year I'll get to have the day off

Although it looks like it didn't come through in my email to the list, the 2

should be superscripted.

Thanks so much, . I can't believe I was so lucky as to get answers from

three people on Christmas Eve -- and to have you, obviously a real oncology

professional among them.

Have wonderful holidays.

Color me sympathetic! I'm committed to be here until AT LEAST 1:00 CST, and

till 4:30 " if absolutely necessary. " Then I have to cover the morning hours

tomorrow. I've got the same schedule for New Year's Eve and New Year's Day,

except on New Year's Day I'll cover the afternoon hours instead of the morning.

Ain't acute care fun? (This is my first year to work in an acute care setting

in 25+ years.)
