dahlio Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 What does BPV stand for when you're talking about a patient's medical history. I heard a nurse talk say something to a doctor about it, but not sure what it stands for. Thanks -dahlio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dahlio Posted December 18, 2008 Author Share Posted December 18, 2008 Thanks, I did google, but there was also a bi-polar deal there too, not sure which was used. Thanks! -dahlio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard B the EMT Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Reminder: NEVER use WNL to indicate the patient's vital signs were "Within Normal Limits", as the lawyers will say it stands for "We Never Looked"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard B the EMT Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Not my personal experience, but have read it in at least 4 separate EMS "Trade Magazines", multiple times, over many years' time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
