hi,everything looks ok to me! i used to have a problem identifying htn as hypertension too, so i am sure that's right. hopefully you will get more responses, so you can get an a on your assignment. :) ketcia:)
thank you! most of are easy to figure out-but then you get the few where you think, "who thought of this? "
thanks again!
Hi! I am currently doing some clinical homework on disease processes. I was wondering if someone would be willing to double check my use of abbreviations and maybe help me with a couple I could not figure out. I really appreciate it!CVA Cerebral Vascular Accident (Stroke)
COPD Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
CHF Congestive Heart Failure
MS Multiple Sclerosis
GERD Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
UTI Urinary Tract Infection
The ones I am having a hard time with are: (I would be happy with hints so that I can figure it out on my own-if it is possible)
HTN (Something to do with Hypertension?)
CAD (Maybe Coronary Artery Disease?)
Again, I am grateful for any help!
You got 'em right.....HTN= hypertension, CAD= coronary artery disease....
good luck!
