Full transcript
Thanks for coming in today. Your home blood pressure readings this week averaged 158 over 98, which is higher than we'd like. Have you noticed any dizziness or headaches lately?
Da, primijetio sam vrtoglavicu par puta ujutro, a jednom mi se zavrtjelo u glavi na poslu. Mjerio sam tlak svaki dan, kako ste rekli.
Do you add salt to your meals, or drink alcohol regularly? Both of these can raise your blood pressure significantly if not managed carefully.
Da, dosta soli dodajem u hranu, navika iz djetinjstva. Alkohol pijem samo vikendom, možda dva piva.
I'd like to increase your medication slightly and suggest cutting back on salt, following Heart Foundation guidelines. Let's review your progress again in four weeks.
Brine me hoće li lijek uzrokovati još veću vrtoglavicu. Ne mogu si priuštiti da mi pozli dok radim.
Side effects are rare, but if dizziness continues after starting the new dose, stop the tablets and call the clinic immediately.
To bi mi odgovaralo, jer teško uzimam slobodno vrijeme s posla za doktorske preglede tijekom tjedna.
You could also get a free blood pressure check at Chemist Warehouse between appointments, if that's easier around your work shifts.
Hoće li ovaj pregled nešto koštati, ili je pokriven zdravstvenim osiguranjem?
This visit is bulk-billed under Medicare, so there's no out-of-pocket cost for you. Let's book your follow-up appointment for four weeks' time.
Hvala vam. Dogovorit ću se za termin za četiri tjedna i pokušat ću smanjiti sol u prehrani.
Terms in this dialogue that cost marks
CCL is marked on information transferred. These Australian terms have no direct word in most test languages — get one wrong and the segment's information is gone.
- medicareZadržati naziv 'Medicare' kao vlastito ime, ne prevoditi ga i ne zamjenjivati hrvatskim izrazom 'zdravstveno osiguranje' jer se radi o konkretnoj australskoj instituciji.
Practise it
Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The free daily dialogue on this site plays each segment at native speed, records you, and marks the information you transferred against the same categories examiners use — omissions, distortions, insertions — so you know where the marks went.
