Patient: Good morning


Doctor: Good morning. Have a seat, please.
Patient: Thanks.
Doctor: So, what brings you here?
Patient: I’ve got a fever and sore throat since yesterday.
Doctor: Okay. Let me check your body temperature.
Patient: All right.
Doctor: Would you please put the thermometer under your arm?
Patient: Ok.
Doctor: Your body temperature is 39.2° C. It means you have moderate
fever. Now, I would like you to relax as I am checking your pulse and
respiration rate.
Patient: Okay.
Doctor: Good. Next, I am going to wrap this cuff around your arm and
pump it to read your blood pressure.
Patient: Would it hurt?
Doctor: No, just relax, okay.
Patient: Okay.
Doctor: Good. Could you please open your mouth and say “aaah” so I
could check your throat?
Patient: Aaah
Doctor: Okay. So, your pulse rate is 80 per minute, your respiration
rate is 16 per minute, and your blood pressure is 120/80.
Patient: What does it mean?
Doctor: It means that your vital signs are normal. There is nothing to be
worried about.
Patient: Oh thank God.
Doctor: I am going to prescribe you vitamin and some medicines to ease
your fever and sore throat.
Patient: Okay.
Doctor: Don’t forget to take a rest and drink a lot of water.
Patient: I will. Thank you so much.
