The other day, I was asked to write the admission orders for a sick patient for the very first time. Every doctor I have seen has taken different approaches towards writing these notes. For me, the two acronyms below has worked well for me and covers most issues that needs to be addressed when admitting.
AD DAVID
- Admit to / Allergies
- Diagnosis
- Diet type
- Activity level
- Vitals / IV
- Investigations (e.g. blood work, imaging, consults)
- Drugs
Under the medication orders, I use the following acronym: BE SAD PP
- Bowel protocol
- Emesis protocol
- Sleep
- Antibiotics
- DVT prophylaxis
- Pain
- Pre-admission medications
AD DAVID
- Admitido por / Alergias
- Diagnostico
- Tipo de Dieta
- Nivel de Actividad
- Signos Vitales
- Investigaciones (análisis de sangre, imagenología, consultas, etc.)
- Drogas (fármacos)
Bajo las órdenes de medicamentos, uso la siguiente sigla:
BE SAD PP (Cambiado a IESATDM ya que no encontré modo de mantener las siglas en ingles.)
- Protocolo de Intestino
- Protocolo de Emesis
- Sueño
- Antibióticos
- Profilaxis de la TVP
- Dolor
- Medicamentos antes del ingreso

“This image demonstrates how perspective can influence perception, and how seemingly opposing points of view can both be mistaken.”

Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva is a rare genetic mutation causing fibrous tissue to ossify when it gets damaged. Literally, your connective tissue turns to bone and over the years you “turn to stone” and lock up. Can’t we just operate and remove the bone growths? Nope. This causes further tissue damage, and therefore further ossification. Even just doing a biopsy of affected tissue can cause further harm to these individuals. As of yet there is no cure or treatment, but geneticists are certainly interested in developing gene therapy for these unfortunate individuals.
La fibrodisplasia osificante progresiva es una mutación genética rara que causa el tejido fibroso a osificarse cuando se daña. Literalmente, tu tejido conectivo se convierte en hueso y con los años te “conviertes a piedra” y te encierras. No podemos operar y quitar los crecimientos óseos? No. Esto causa daños al tejido, y por lo tanto aún más osificación. Incluso solo haciendo una biopsia del tejido afectado puede causar más daño a estos individuos. Hasta el momento no existe cura o tratamiento, pero los genetistas están interesados en desarrollar una terapia génica para estos individuos desafortunados.
