Any midwives / clever people - what does "DR" mean in notes?

[GrumpyFish]

Just had a brief hospital visit (27) weeks because of very minor bleed. All seemed fine and reassuring and got home quickly.

However, I have notice that underlined in the notes that the midwife has written up for me is: "DR - High Risk - 27/40". Does anyone know what this might mean? I wondered if it just refererred to delivery risk (which probably would be classed as high due to previous EMCS)?

Doctor?

DR is an abbreviation for determine risk, which in your case is that you are 27/40 weeks. It is normally written when commenting on a CTG trace.

Thank you - yes it is written above the CTG trace comments (.ie. directly below has details of uterine activity (none), FHR, accelerations, decelerations (none) etc). So I am assuming that the "high risk" element is being 27 weeks, and because everything else was fine (the final comment is "O - reassuring for gestation" (overall?) then it's not that they considered me high risk after examining me?

Thanks for the replies, I've googled that and it has put my mind at rest!
