Full transcript
Thanks for coming in today, Mrs. Lefevre. Could you tell me how Léo's breathing has been since his asthma flare-up about three weeks ago?
Merci de nous recevoir, infirmière. Il tousse encore la nuit, surtout après avoir couru dans la cour, et il semble parfois essoufflé.
Does he still rely on the blue reliever puffer, and roughly how many times a day has he needed to use it recently?
Il prend son ventolin environ trois fois par jour, mais parfois cela ne suffit pas à calmer complètement la toux.
Let's check his peak flow reading now; if it comes back below 300 litres per minute, we may need to adjust his current plan.
D'accord, infirmière. Est-ce que cela signifie qu'il devra utiliser un inhalateur plus fort ou prendre un autre médicament?
His reading is 260 today, so I'll start a preventer inhaler twice daily and update his written asthma action plan before you leave.
Très bien. Dois-je aussi montrer ce plan à l'école, ou est-ce qu'il suffit de le garder à la maison pour l'instant?
Please give a copy to his school office, but remember the plan won't be valid until his regular GP has signed it.
Je comprends. Dois-je prendre rendez-vous avec le docteur Nguyen cette semaine pour qu'il signe ce document avant l'école?
Yes, please book with Dr Nguyen sometime this week; if his symptoms worsen before that appointment, take Léo straight to Campbelltown Hospital.
Merci beaucoup, infirmière. Je vais appeler la clinique aujourd'hui même pour prendre rendez-vous avec le docteur Nguyen.
