Report Initials Transcript For Free

Capitalize all the letters in titles and major headings in medical reports. Subheadings should have initial capital letters, with only the first word of the subheading capitalized. Capitalize the first letter following a report heading or subheading.

When formatting a transcription, be sure to leave space between each paragraph of text to increase readability. In some documents, double spacing is even ideal?it's easier to read and makes it simple for readers to scan the document quickly. Submit your finished transcript in a readable file type.

Personal names, both first and last, are capitalized; otherwise original orthography is maintained. Two names joined together are separated (for example, "Pietropaolo" is transcribed "Pietro Paolo"). Abbreviated first names are not spelled out.

Type words exactly as they are written in the document. This includes capitalization, abbreviations, names, dates, and even misspelled words. If you happen to find a misspelled name, place, or event within the record, we encourage you to add a tag or a comment with the correct spelling of the word.

Use periods for abbreviations, such as D.C. and U.S. The times ?A.M.? and ?P.M.? should be in small caps (e.g. 8 A.M.). Acronyms have no periods. They should be spelled out in the first instance, using brackets to set off the full name.

When you cannot understand the audio at all, instead of guessing, you can mention [inaudible] or [unintelligible] in the transcriptions to indicate that part of the recording wasn't clear to transcribe. You could use symbols like '-' or '....' or write [several inaudible words] to indicate unclear sounds.

Type the abbreviation as it is in the document; then if you are able, spell out the abbreviation in all capital letters in single square brackets immediately after the abbreviation.
