Digestive System
Doctor: hello Mr. Harvey. You are here because of the stomach pain.
Is that right?
Patient: Yeahhh. It’s the same pain as a week ago. Recently, I've also
lost my appetite.
Doctor: All right. You know, we’re probably going to have to do a
gastroscopy.
Patient: Really? Do you feel like that’s required?
Doctor: It’s a good idea if you’re having persistent lower abdominal
pains and lost your appetite. We should check for any problems
Patient: Okay. You have me convinced. What need to be done?

your mouth and down into the esophagus to examine and identify any
issues based on the results.

BONE
A: What do you see in this X – ray?
B: Let’s see. The left radius appears to have a fracture
A: That’s right. Can you tell me the type of fracture?
B: That looks like a compound fracture, it’s dose look too serious
A: I don’t think so. Maybe you should take a closer look
B: Is that wrong? It’s not comminuted. The bone is split into two
pieces
A: You’re right, it’s not comminuted. But you can see there’s flesh
surrounding the bone, so it is impacted fracture
B: Oh, yes, I see that now
A: So what are the next steps?
B: We’ll need to reposition the bone, after that put a splint to keep the
bone in place
BLOOD
Nurse: Okay, Mr. Lewis, we’re almost done drawing your blood.
Hold still for a little longer
Donor: Off course. So, Can you tell me where my blood will go?
Nurse: Our facility provides blood to local hospitals and surgical
centers for transfusions
Donor: I see. So anyone might receive my blood
Nurse: Not quite. Your blood type is B, which means that only people
with Types B and AB can donate. We can’t give your blood to
someone with type O or A
Donor: Really? What happens if someone gets a transfusion with the
wrong type?
Nurse: That can be extremely dangerous or even result in death

Nurse: That right. Our records are kept with great care here to ensure
that no one receives the wrong blood.
