美国医院里很喜欢用缩写.doc

美国医院里很喜欢用缩写，看得人头昏脑胀。尤其有的医生写的缩写想破了脑袋也想不出来。比如TKO，各位想想什么意思？ 是输液时用的-to keep open，就是只要维持输液通畅就行，速度当然要慢了。偶尔在一个网站上看到了比较全面的医学缩写，但是很多，要全部记下来对我来说太难了，所以我准备打印下来带在身上，上班的时候不懂就可以查一查，省得去问别人了。各位有兴趣不妨看看，也许以后工作中能用上。edit AA&Ox3Alert and Oriented to person, place, and timeA&Ox4Alert and Oriented to person, place, time, and circumstances (often used interchangeably with A&Ox3)A&WAlive and wella.a.of each, from Latin, anaAAAAbdominal aortic aneurysm, Pronounced Triple AAATactivity as toleratedAbAntibodyABCaspiration biopsy cytologyABCDAsymmetry, borders, color, diameter features on considering is it a Melanoma?ABD or abdabdomenABGArterial blood gasesABMTAutologous bone marrow transplantationABPIAnkle brachial pressure indexABVDdoxorubicin bleomycin vinblastine dacarbazine First-line treatment for Hodgkins lymphoma.ABXantibioticsa.c.before food, from Latin, ante cibumACEAngiotensin converting enzymeACEIAngiotensin converting enzyme inhibitorsAchAcetylcholineACLAnterior cruciate ligamentACLSAdvanced cardiac life supportACTHAdrenocorticotropic hormonead.make up toad part. dolentto the painful parts, from Latin, partes dolentesADAlzheimers DiseaseADAAdenosine deaminaseADCAIDS dementia complexADDAttention Deficit DisorderADHAntidiuretic hormoneADHDAttention Deficit Hyperactivity DisorderADLactivities of daily livingad libas desired from Latin, ad libitumadmadmissionADRAdverse drug reactionAEMAmbulatory electrocardiogram monitoringAFatrial fibrillationAFatrial flutterAFAmniotic fluidAFBacid fast bacilliAFOankle-foot orthosisAFPAlpha-fetoproteinAgAntigenAGAAnti-gliadin Antibodiesa.h.every other hour, from Latin, alternis horisAHFAntihemophilic factorAHGAntihemophilic globulinAHHaryl hydrocarbon hydroxylaseAIArtificial inseminationAIAortic insufficiencyAICDAutomated implantable cardioverter-defibrillatorAIDArtificial insemination by donorAIDSAcquired Immune Deficiency SyndromeAIHartificial insemination by husbandAIIRBAngiotensin II receptor antagonistakaalso known asAKAAbove knee amputationALGAntilymphocytic globulinALLAcute lymphocytic leukemiaALPAlkaline phosphataseALPSAutoimmune lymphoproliferative syndromeALSAmyotrophic Lateral SclerosisALSAdvanced Life SupportALTAlanine transferasealtern. d.every other day, from Latin, alterno dieAMAAnti-mitochondrial AntibodiesAMAAgainst Medical AdviceAMAAdvanced Maternal Age (35 years or greater)AMCArthrogryposis multiplex congenitaAMIAcute myocardial infarctionAMLAcute myelocytic leukemiaAMPAdenosine monophosphateAMSAcute mountain sicknessAMSatypical measles syndromeANAAnti-nuclear antibodyANCAAnti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodiesANFAtrial natriuretic factorANPAtrial natriuretic peptideANSAutonomic nervous systemANUGAcute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitisa.p.before dinner, from Latin, ante prandiumAPAlkaline phosphataseAPAPacetaminophen, paracetamol;
