| [slm] hehe, some of those are pretty funny but then some are actually pretty mean! The only one i had heard of was FLK (funny looking kid), maybe they're just pretty indigenous to british medicine? I also wonder if litigation is such a huge issue over there as it is here...b/c I haven't seen anyone use acronyms like that in notes on patients. They're always super paranoid about charting everything. [wlm] |
