Coding in this instance is a denotative meaning. A single word sometimes has several meanings. Individuals who use a common language share the denotative meaning of a word. The word baseball has the same meaning for all individuals who speak English, but the word code denotes cardiac arrest primarily to health care providers. The connotative meaning is the shade or inter-pretation of the meaning of a word, which is influenced by the thoughts, feelings, or ideas that people have about the word. Tone of voice and volume dramatically affect the meaning of a message, and emotions directly influence tone of voice, which is intonation. Pacing can involve talking rapidly, using awkward pauses, or speaking extremely slowly and deliberately, conveying different meanings.

The trade or brand name (e.g., Tylenol) is the name under which a manufacturer markets a me-dication. The trade name has the symbol to the upper right of the name, indicating that the manufacturer has registered the medication's name. Acetaminophen is an example of a generic name. It is the generic name for Tylenol. A medication sometimes has as many as three different names. A medication's chemical name is an exact description of the medication's composition and molecular structure. In clinical practice, health care workers rarely use chemical names. An example of a chemical name is N-acetyl-para-aminophenol, which is commonly known as Tylenol. The manufacturer who first develops the medication gives the generic or nonproprietary name with United States Adopted Names Council (USANC) approval. The generic name becomes the official name that is listed in publications such as the United States Pharmacopeia (USP).
