@grammargirl at least it’s grammatically correct. ;)

@grammargirl It takes 72 hours because first they sult them, then they result them. 😆

Amazing discovery, folks!People are telling me that "resulted" (as in "the results will be made available 72 hours after they are resulted") is "a common word usage in clinical laboratories in healthcare." 🤷♀️

@grammargirl That may well be, but what does it mean? After they're tabulated, or analyzed, or . . . ?

@grammargirl Yeah, I think that means that the results have been entered in the electronic medical record, which triggers a particular step in the electronic workflow. "Ended" is a similar one, although that's already a word - my wife uses that with her ultrasound exams; a case has to be "ended" before it gets read by a Radiologist.

@grammargirl Is it really? I have a hard time believing this. It sounds far too wrong to exist.

@GramrgednAngel No idea exactly what it means other than "when we're darn well ready to let you see them."

@grammargirl I had never heard this word before working in medical imaging, I can vouch for it being a common term. “The study is in dictation but hasn’t resulted yet” is something I would tell a doctor at the ER perhaps, calling about a report/results.

@grammargirl It's sort of a cousin of 'gifted' (a word with all kinds of innuendos 'gave' doesn't have, which is why I hate it).

@grammargirlWait, is this usage of "resulted" distinct from the use in the common phrased "resulted in," or is it the same and it just feels weird?

@grammargirl Or, “72 hours after they aee culled.” You know, to add some scifi flavor to it.

@grammargirl @GramrgednAngel not really, per your original post, it's actually 72 hours before that. 😆 I guess "resulting" is the act of producing the results, and their use of "resulted" could be a synonym of "produced"

@grammargirl yes! I actually wrote out a reply to your original post about this but my Mastodon client ate it…I’m going to guess your example is for patients, and is saying that their results will be released to them (e.g. in the patient portal) w/ a 72 hour delay. Medical informatics folks are still trying to come up with best-practice ways of adjusting to the new norms of giving patients transparency to their record, but avoid the patient seeing results before their doctor has viewed them.

@grammargirl your example sentence is particularly awkward because it unused “result” twice, in two different ways. It probably could have been worded in better ways!But yes, “resulted” is, for better or worse, a normal term in the medical informatics jargon and refers to when a lab or test result is finalized and posted to the record. I hadn’t thought about it before, but it is really interesting if this actually just developed in this little niche.
