At our hospital, when the main MD "signs out" for the night and cross-cover takes over, the MD will write a little note with plan of care for reference.  I found this little gem the other night:
"If pt decompenstes with generalized respiratory badness, call pulm.  Okay to titrate up 02 if necessary.  If pt spikes temp overnight, do not re-culture.  Don't even *think* about it.... ;)  "
Yes, including the winking smiley face.  And "respiratory badness" is apparently a technical term now, so that's cool.  Now my friends won't give me crap when I describe things as "________ badness" because we know it's officially sanctioned.
Just a little silliness to brighten up the day :)
