Right. If you didn’t notice the sarcasm dripping, you need a head exam. But it does lend itself to rather interesting typos. It’s hard to have typos when you’re writing on a paper chart, although technically it’s possible. Here are some recent gems from electronic charts I’ve read:
Patient’s father had dimension.
I hope so. A 2-D person would be a bit strange. Could it be “dementia”?
Patient turding Q2 hours.
That’s a lot of poop, although not unheard of. May I suggest “turning Q2 hours”?
Patient has TED hoes on.
Why they have Ted’s hoes on is beyond me. My imagination is fertile, though….
Anyone else have good ones? I need laughs!
