Full transcript
Thanks for coming in today, Mrs. Koskinen. Let's review Elias's asthma action plan before he starts at his new high school next month.
Kiitos, olen todella huolissani, koska hän on yskinyt paljon viime viikolla ja käyttänyt Ventolinia useammin kuin ennen.
I understand your concern. How many times has he used the blue reliever puffer in the past week, and does he wake at night coughing?
Hän on käyttänyt sitä neljä kertaa tällä viikolla, ja hän heräsi kahdesti yöllä yskän takia.
That frequency is concerning, but he won't need hospital admission if we increase his preventer dose now and monitor him closely over the next fortnight.
Onko uudella annoksella sivuvaikutuksia, joita minun pitäisi tarkkailla, kuten unihäiriöitä tai sydämen tykytystä?
Mild throat irritation is possible, but nothing serious. If symptoms don't improve within two weeks, we'll refer him to a specialist at John Hunter Hospital.
Entä koululeiri kolmen viikon päästä? Voiko hän osallistua liikuntaan ja vaeltamiseen normaalisti?
Yes, as long as he carries his puffer and spacer, and teachers know his action plan. I'll give you an extra copy for the school office.
Se kuulostaa hyvältä. Milloin meidän pitäisi tulla seuraavaan tarkastukseen?
Book a follow-up in six weeks. If his cough returns or the puffer isn't helping, contact us immediately.
Kiitos paljon, tohtori. Tunnen oloni paljon rauhallisemmaksi nyt kun tiedän suunnitelman.
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.
- asthma action planKäännä 'astman hoitosuunnitelma' tai 'astman omahoito-ohje'.
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.
