Medical term pesos - Will the VIkes win tonight?
Posted: Dec 20, 2009
I have a Spanish speaking doctor with a 19 month old child. He is referring to the term "pesos" as a medical term. The sentence is "The youngest the child really had severe "pesosi" was on 2 days prior to admission. Any idea? How about folks in California and Texas? Thank you so much. Have a great day. Hope at least some of you are in warm weather. We just got a ton of snow dumped on us in Ohio and it's about 25 degrees Fahrenheit. I hate cold weather. :-) Oh well.
Thanks in advance, all!

[ In Reply To ..]I had no idea that PESOS was anything other than money. It's an acronum for Pressure, Explain, Show, Observe, Supervise. Huh. You learn something new every day. It's one of the many things I love about doing MT.
Have a great day, all!
Mmm. Still thinking...please see message - elaine
[ In Reply To ..]The PESOS acronym is a training model. (Prepare, explain, show, observe, supervise.) How does that make sense in your context?
Can you hear pertussis?........see message - elaine
[ In Reply To ..]"The youngest child really had severe pertussis 2 days prior to admission."

[ In Reply To ..]I should have given an update. Upon listening for the umteenth time, it turned out to be "episodes, not "pesos". I see I typed "pesosi" instead. Must have that very strongly disliked (for me) woman on the brain. LOL.
