| INTRODUCTION |
| Michael: Hi everyone, I'm Michael. |
| Laura: And I'm Laura. |
| Michael: And welcome to Must-Know Medical Spanish Sentence Structures. Review of Systems. Pulmonary System. |
| Michael: In this lesson, you'll learn a sentence pattern for asking your patient about the pulmonary signs and symptoms they are presenting. |
| PATTERN |
| Michael: First, let’s look at the Spanish sentence for, "Have you had a cough?" |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido tos? |
| Laura: [slow] ¿Ha tenido tos? |
| Michael: The pattern for asking your patient about the signs and symptoms they have presented has three elements. First, the verb meaning "have [you]." Note how the "you" is omitted from the Spanish sentence, because in Spanish the subject is implied by how the verb is conjugated. |
| Laura: ha, [slow] ha, [normal] ha. |
| Michael: Second, the verb meaning "had." |
| Laura: tenido, [slow] tenido, [normal] tenido. |
| Michael: And last, the signs and symptoms you are asking the patient about – "a cough." |
| Laura: tos, [slow] tos, [normal] tos. |
| Michael: Altogether, we have... "Have you had a cough?" |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido tos? [slow] ¿Ha tenido tos? [normal] ¿Ha tenido tos? |
| Michael: Here’s another example meaning, "Have you had shortness of breath?" First, the verb "have [you]." |
| Laura: ha |
| Michael: Second, the word meaning "had." |
| Laura: tenido |
| Michael: And last, the signs and symptoms you are asking the patient about – in this case, "shortness of breath." |
| Laura: dificultad al respirar, [slow] dificultad al respirar, [normal] dificultad al respirar. |
| Michael: Altogether we have... |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido dificultad al respirar? [slow] ¿Ha tenido dificultad al respirar? [normal] ¿Ha tenido dificultad al respirar? |
| Michael: "Have you had shortness of breath?" |
| [pause] |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido dificultad al respirar? |
| Michael: The sentence pattern is, |
| Laura: Ha tenido + [Sign or Symptom]. |
| Michael: "Have you had + [Sign or Symptom]." |
| Laura: Ha tenido + [Sign or Symptom]. |
| PRACTICE |
| Michael: Let’s practice. |
| Michael: Imagine you’re questioning your patient about the pulmonary symptoms they have presented. |
| Michael: Use the sentence pattern to say "Have you had chest pain that worsens with deep breathing?" "Chest pain that worsens with deep breathing" is |
| Laura: dolor de pecho que empeora con respiraciones profundas [slow] dolor de pecho que empeora con respiraciones profundas [normal] dolor de pecho que empeora con respiraciones profundas. |
| [pause] |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido dolor de pecho que empeora con respiraciones profundas? [slow] ¿Ha tenido dolor de pecho que empeora con respiraciones profundas? [normal] ¿Ha tenido dolor de pecho que empeora con respiraciones profundas? |
| [pause] |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido dolor de pecho que empeora con respiraciones profundas? |
| Michael: Now imagine you are asking your patient "Have you had leg swelling in one leg?" "Leg swelling in one leg" is |
| Laura: hinchazón de una pierna, [slow] hinchazón de una pierna, hinchazón de una pierna. |
| [pause] |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido hinchazón de una pierna? [slow] ¿Ha tenido hinchazón de una pierna? ¿Ha tenido hinchazón de una pierna? |
| [pause] |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido hinchazón de una pierna? |

| Michael: "Have you had non-productive coughs?" |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido tos seca? |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido tos seca? |
| Michael: "Have you had productive coughs?" |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido tos con flema? |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido tos con flema? |
| Michael: "Have you had blood in your phlegm?" |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido tos con sangre? |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido tos con sangre? |
| Michael: "Have you had fast breathing?" |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido respiración muy rápida? |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido respiración muy rápida? |
| Michael: "Have you had wheezing?" |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido respiración jadeante? |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido respiración jadeante? |
