I would do RUE or write out right upper extremity..or right upper arm. Some people aren't sure what others abbreviations mean in my facility. (even the well know, very taught ones...ugghh) I actually had another nurse ask me why I gave a sub Q in the left upper ear (I charted K=LUE)...

I guess my question is, you wouldn't say "upper right arm" would you? Isn't there a term or acronym?
Thanks!
