Dictation Report Write each numbered term as you hear it, spelling each term correctly. This exercise will help you learn to hear, comprehend, visualize, and spell the new medical terms accurately. A 76-year-old female patient visited the (1) ____________________________ for the first time. She had been experiencing a variety of problems associated with blood disease, so her primary care physician referred her to this specialist. She had already been on many different (2) ____________________________ to help her fight (3) ____________________________. But so far, the physicians had not been able to determine the cause of her problems and were calling her disease process (4) ____________________________. She has a history of a number of blood (5) ____________________________ and is currently suffering from (6) ____________________________ in her feet and hands. She has lost two toes to (7) ____________________________ and is hopeful that this doctor will be able to help. There is a history of (8) ____________________________ in her family. Her problems do not seem to be those of (9) ____________________________. The doctor is concerned that she might have a(n) (10) ____________________________ caused by her own immune response attacking her otherwise healthy tissues. She does have a history of many (11) ____________________________, but has never had an episode of (12) ____________________________. The doctor performs a number of blood tests to rule out certain diseases. Her test results do not indicate any (13) ____________________________, or a reduced number of platelets; no (14) ____________________________, or presence of red blood cells of unequal size; no (15) ____________________________, or abnormal increase in the number of red blood cells; and no (16) ____________________________, or irregularly shaped red blood cells. This is all good news.

However, on physical exam, the physician determines that the patient’s (17) ____________________________ is enlarged, a condition known as (18) ____________________________.

Her (20) ____________________________ and (21) ____________________________ are within normal limits. She does not have (22) ____________________________. It is unlikely she has contracted a disease like (23) ____________________________, as there is no history of a puncture injury. The doctor will consider the possibility that she has an infection, such as a(n) (24) ____________________________ or a(n) (25) ____________________________, which is resistant to (26) ____________________________ therapy. The specialist will consider many possible causes of her problems before he prescribes any medication or treatment. It is imperative that he work quickly, however, as this patient could quickly develop (27) ____________________________, a systemwide disease caused by the presence of bacteria and their toxins in the circulating blood. He will have to run more (28) ____________________________ and (29) ____________________________ tests on her. He will check her clotting time or her (30) ____________________________ to determine if she is likely to (31) ____________________________. This will be important to know if she should need a(n) (32) ____________________________.

Chapter 7 Blood and the Lymphatic System Worksheet 2 Answers Dictation Report Write each numbered term as you hear it, spelling each term correctly. This exercise will help you learn to hear, comprehend, visualize, and spell the new medical terms accurately. A 76-year-old female patient visited the (1) hematologist for the first time. She had been experiencing a variety of problems associated with blood disease, so her primary care physician referred her to this specialist. She had already been on many different (2) antibiotics to help her fight (3) infection. But so far, the physicians had not been able to determine the cause of her problems and were calling her disease process (4) idiopathic disease. She has a history of a number of blood (5) dyscrasias and is currently suffering from (6) edema in her feet and hands. She has lost two toes to (7) gas gangrene and is hopeful that this doctor will be able to help. There is a history of (8) Hodgkin’s disease in her family. Her problems do not seem to be those of (9) communicable disease. The doctor is concerned that she might have an (10) autoimmune disease, caused by her own immune response attacking her otherwise healthy tissues. She does have a history of many (11) allergies, but has never had an episode of (12) anaphylaxis. The doctor performs a number of blood tests to rule out certain diseases. Her test results do not indicate any (13) thrombopenia, or a reduced number of platelets; no (14) anisocytosis, or presence of red blood cells of unequal size; no (15) polycythemia, or abnormal increase in the number of red blood cells; and no (16) poikilocytosis, or irregularly shaped red blood cells. This is all good news. However, on physical exam, the physician determines that the patient’s (17) spleen is enlarged, a condition known as (18) splenomegaly. If her spleen is injured or infected, she might require a (19) splenectomy, or removal of the spleen. Her (20) hemoglobin and (21) hematocrit are within normal limits. She does not have (22) anemia. It is unlikely she has contracted a disease like (23) tetanus, as there is no history of a puncture injury. The doctor will consider the possibility that she has an

infection, such as a (24) staphylococcemia or a (25) streptococcemia, that is resistant to (26) antibiotic therapy. The specialist will consider many possible causes of her problems before he prescribes any medication or treatment. It is imperative that he work quickly, however, as this patient could quickly develop (27) septicemia, a systemwide disease caused by the presence of bacteria and their toxins in the circulating blood. He will have to run more (28) blood chemistry and (29) blood culture tests on her. He will check her clotting time or her (30) coagulation time to determine if she is likely to (31) hemorrhage. This will be important to know if she should need a (32) blood transfusion.
