Cam some one relieve me near medical terminolgy PLEASE what do these abreveations indicate?
Answers: Dx is diagnosis, Sig Hx is significant history. Erythem pap are erythematous papules (swollen red spots, usually). They are located on the trunk...commonly called the chest nouns and the arms. ID is most likely infectious disease. Supple scheme the arm bends easily...the joint are not stiff. Adenopathy refers to swollen lymph nodes (indicating infection). Masses are bumps felt beneath the skin. Extremity refers to an arm or leg...probably an arm in this baggage. WD/WP probably either all right developed/well proportioned (both arms or legs are the same size, customarily muscled) or well developed/well perfused (meaning here is enough blood flow to them)
DX: Diagnosis
Sig: Signature
HX: sorry can't find this one...
Erythem(a): Redness of skin cause by sunburn
Pap: Pulmonary Artery Pressure, or Prostatic Phosphatase
Adenophathy: Large or swollen Lymph Nodes
WD/WP (could it be wd/wn?): Well Developed/Well Nourished
ID: Intradermal (in or into the skin...Intradermal tests are a type of skin test)
I hope this help. :-)
I can only assistance you with the first sector: (translation)
Diagnosis: Significant History of Erythema papullae on trunk & arms with no evidence of 2nd.... (im not sure nearly what his "id:" mode, as well as his "wd/wp".. best bet, would be to ask him. you HAVE the RIGHT to know your diagnosis.)
hope this help a bit. take contemplation.
These aren't standard abbreviations but personal action for the most part, so it isn't surprising that you couldn't digit them out.
Dx is obviously "diagnosis," and Hx "history."
The details seems to be conversation about an erythematous papular exanthem next to no other signs of infectious disease. I'm guessing that the arms and legs are well-developed and well-perfused, but this is just from the context.
Sig is Signature
DX parsimonious Diagnosis
Pap is Pulmonary Artery Pressure, or Prostatic Phosphatase
Erythem(a) is Redness of skin caused by sunburn
Adenophathy: Large or swollen Lymph Nodes
WD/WP (could it be wd/wn?): Well Developed/Well Nourished
