Well the PN in FA and UW follows the classic order. And I think it is easy to document the normal system. For example:
Lungs: NT, Clear in A and P.
Abdomen: S, NT, ND, +BS, no organomegaly.
Why not to follow the classic order. the time to write the PN is the same.
It is just my opinion
Are these "...S, NT, ND..." standard abbreviations?

I found them in UW, They are not in FA. I think They are understandable in the context, also I am planning to use them only if I run out of time.
But if it is incorrect I am still on time to correct it.
What do you think?

Well, S may be read as soft and small... They are understandable but not classic, I would say... I think using these non-standards wouldn't save too much time... I decided that I will be typing my PN, and practice to type imaginary cases on abdominal pain, etc... So, it seems I can make it within 9 min, with some mistypes but that shouldn't be a huge problem

i dont think they are safe to use.the only one acceptable out of those is BS which is bowel sounds.use only and only acceptable acronyms and some which are just too common and can be understood by every doctor.
and yes some typos dont matter
good luck guyz.
