Abstract:	Focusing on basic word building skills, Basic Medical Language, 4th Edition provides the foundation of medical vocabulary you need to communicate with other health care team members. It explains a carefully selected group of suffixes, prefixes, and word roots to give you a basis for learning and understanding hundreds of medical terms. Clear, illustrated lessons present terms by body system, introducing word parts and providing exercises that ask you to define terms or combine word parts to create terms. Written by expert educators Myrna LaFleur Brooks and Danielle LaFleur Brooks, this text also simplifies medical terminology with online learning activities, games, and quizzes. ... NEW terms and definitions keep you up to date with the latest healthcare procedures and advances. NEW electronic health record documents provide exposure to the EHRs you will encounter in practice. NEW and updated illustrations show difficult terms and procedures more clearly. NEW! Gradable exercises on the Evolve companion website allow quick assessment of your understanding and can be easily e-mailed to instructors. NEW list of error-prone abbreviations identifies abbreviations that should NOT be used in the clinical setting.
