Portal sites
Subject: Portal sites

You heard it right. In Orthopedics, you'll come across the procedure of "arthroscopy" quite a bit. The Ortho surgeon makes small incisions called "portals", through one of which he inserts the scope to look inside the joint, and through the others he inserts other instruments as needed for cutting, shaving, biopsies, etc. Once he completes the procedure, he closes those incisions which become the "portal sites" that he is talking about. He obviously is checking during the followup visit to see if there is any infection at the incision sites.

hypertension stages
Subject: hypertension stages

Hi,


 


Anyone know if stages of hypertension are now to be noted with Arabic numerals?  I have always been taught that they are to be in Roman numeral form.  If you have the answer to this, please send me the reference as well, as I haven't been able to find this in any of my medical term books/references.  Even my Stedman's Cardiology book doesn't have information on this as far as I've been able to find.  Thanks so much for any help!
