In this episode of ECTopics, Rob discusses abbreviations.

I get asked by my students and nurses what abbreviations are ok?   The short answer is any that the reader understands.

Documentation is first and foremost a communication tool, so if your abbreviation is ambiguous, then it shouldn't be used

• There is no “List of abbreviations” that are acceptable.
