| 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. Cardiovascular System. |
| Michael: In this lesson, you'll learn a sentence pattern for asking your patient about the cardiovascular signs and symptoms they are presenting. |
| PATTERN |
| Michael: First, let’s look at the Spanish sentence for, "Have you had chest pain?" |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido dolor de pecho? |
| Laura: [slow] ¿Ha tenido dolor de pecho? |
| 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, 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 – "Chest pain." |
| Laura: dolor de pecho, [slow] dolor de pecho, [normal] dolor de pecho. |
| Michael: Altogether, we have... "Have you had chest pain?" |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido dolor de pecho? [slow] ¿Ha tenido dolor de pecho? [normal] ¿Ha tenido dolor de pecho? |
| Michael: Here’s another example meaning, "Have you had palpitations?" 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, "palpitations." |
| Laura: palpitaciones rápidas del corazón, [slow] palpitaciones rápidas del corazón, [normal] palpitaciones rápidas del corazón. |
| Michael: Altogether we have... |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido palpitaciones rápidas del corazón? [slow] ¿Ha tenido palpitaciones rápidas del corazón? [normal] ¿Ha tenido palpitaciones rápidas del corazón? |
| Michael: "Have you had palpitations?" |
| [pause] |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido palpitaciones rápidas del corazón? |
| 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 cardiovascular symptoms they have presented. |
| Michael: Use the sentence pattern to say "Have you had shortness of breath?" "Shortness of breath" is |
| Laura: dificultad al respirar [slow] dificultad al respirar [normal] dificultad al respirar. |
| [pause] |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido dificultad al respirar? [slow] ¿Ha tenido dificultad al respirar? [normal] ¿Ha tenido dificultad al respirar? |
| [pause] |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido dificultad al respirar? |
| Michael: Now imagine you are asking your patient "Have you had exercise intolerance?" "Exercise intolerance" is |
| Laura: intolerancia al ejercicio, [slow] intolerancia al ejercicio, intolerancia al ejercicio. |
| [pause] |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido intolerancia al ejercicio? [slow] ¿Ha tenido intolerancia al ejercicio? ¿Ha tenido intolerancia al ejercicio? |
| [pause] |
