Comments | The operation reflects a shorter term indication when the device is actually being used for the subject and who the operator is. The operator may be the same as the subject, in which case it is less likely to have to document the operation. Where it is relevant to document periods of use, absence of the operator cannot imply that the subject is the operator, thus would need to be explicitly stated. |
