oriented x 4 Explanation: Online explanation: For example, a fully alert patient might be considered "alert and oriented x 4" if he/she could correctly identify the time, their name, their location, and the event. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 21 mins (2017-03-30 18:34:33 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- This is a standard, widely used expression in mental health evaluations. (It does mean "firing on all 4 cylinders" ... when you understand the nature of each cylinder.) I would think you could also say "oriented in all 4 spheres" although I find very few instances of this phrase in an online search. |
