    Tip 21: Relevant information/details:
    • Brief the complaints on admission
    • Investigation findings and diagnosis
    • Management
    • Discharge
    • (Indicate the patient was on a short visit to the place)

    Tip 22:Sequence relevant information based on importance.

    Tip 23: Irrelevant information/details:Information not related to the chief complaint of the patient and not useful to the reader, an emergency department consultant, to initiate the expected care/action should be ignored. Otherwise, it may confuse the reader, and even be counter-productive as it may increase the length of your letter.

    Tip 24: Common medical abbreviations can be used as the reader (a doctor) must be familiar with them.

    Tip 25:Avoid capitalizing generic drug name(s). (If you are using brand names, capitalize accordingly.)
