Overview

A clear, practical, and bilingual general surgery reference for today's healthcare professionals and students. General surgery is one of the most communication-heavy areas of medicine, requiring clear explanations before, during, and after surgical care. From evaluating abdominal pain to preparing patients for procedures and guiding them through recovery, effective communication is essential-especially when language barriers exist. Medical Terminology Guide: General Surgery Edition was created to support nursing students, nurses, medical assistants, physicians, interpreters, and allied health professionals who work with Spanish-speaking patients in surgical and perioperative settings. This guide includes 200+ essential general surgery terms and patient communication phrases presented in a clean, modern, easy-to-read format. Each entry features the English term, its Spanish equivalent, and a simple phonetic pronunciation to help non-Spanish-speaking staff communicate accurately and confidently. Whether you're reviewing symptoms like abdominal pain, bloating, bleeding, or nausea, explaining diagnoses such as appendicitis, hernias, or gallbladder disease, or preparing patients for procedures like appendectomy, hernia repair, laparoscopy, or post-operative care, this guide keeps the surgical vocabulary you need right at your fingertips.
