Adjectival Hyphens
error

"The aortic balloon is delivered on a catheter via the femoral artery in order to reduce any distal bleeding and raise blood pressure in order to buy time for definitive surgical haemostasis. It has been used both in the pre-hospital and emergency room setting in a small number of trauma patients, but high-quality data on its efficacy remains lacking 1."

Line 26:224 · Only use medical adjectival hyphens where the letters at the end and start of the compound word are the same, e.g. post-transplant. In this case, don't use the hyphen: 'pre-hospital'.
