CHECKLIST OF ABBREVIATIONS AND ACRONM IN THE PHYSICS LITERATURE November 1976 Martha J. Bailey Purdue University Physics Library W. Lafayette, IN 47907
IN:RODUCTION A small stuay was conducted 1973-1975 to analyze what types of problems a person encounters when attempting to identify acronyms and abbreviations in the physics literature. The items were gathered by glancing at the tables of contents of the journals received each day in the Physics Library, Purdue University. This library has about 500 periodical subscriptions. If an abbreviation was included in the title, the paper was examined to ascertain whether the brief form was defined. A card was made for each, noting the abbreviation, the definition if one was given, and the journal reference. Trade names and the acronyms for computer programs were omitted. A record was not kept of how many times each item was encountered. In a random sample of 40 of these abbreviations and acronyms, about half could be found only in the papers in which they were published (1). On the other hand, 20 of the items that could be verified in nine dictionaries and encyclopedias had from five to 53 different definitions. The present report is a checklist of the more than 500 items which were gathered 1973-1976 (2). The list is arranged in alphabetical order by abbreviation. The definitions are given for each. Although the journal reference is not included, it is available on request to the author. References 1. Martha J. Bailey.

The use of abbreviations and acronyms in medical records and reports may lead to errors in patient care as they may be misunderstood or misinterpreted. When acronyms and abbreviations are used, they should always be defined within the records, report etc. in which they appear, thus: “Mr. Jones has suffered a cerebrovascular accident (CVA). .
COMMONLY USED ACRONYMS If you interact with Medicare, you probably encounter acronyms on a regular basis. It can be difficult sometimes to keep track of them all. This resource is a list of Medicare-related acronyms. While the list is not all-inclusive, it contains those acronyms you may encounter on a regular basis in the course of your
