Inpatient Progress ReportAttending Physician: Morales, JavierPatient: Sally RomperDOT: 03/01/19XX•CHIEF COMPLAINT: Sally Romper is a 53-year-old woman who was admitted to the hospital for recurrent chest pain.HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: This patient has a long history of stable angina pectoralis. She had a positive treadmill stress test in 2006. A Thallium exam in 2006 showed reversible ischemae. In May 2007 she underwent cataract surgery, and during her postoperative care she developed severe chest pain. An EMG at the time showed ischemic ST changes in the anterior leads. Subsequent canary angiography revealed a 90% focal stenoma left anterior descending coronary atria. The patient then underwent angioplasty of this lesion. The 90% stenosis was dialted to a 20% stenosis. The patient had an uncomplicated course.Over the last 10 dailys the patient has had at least five episodes of chest pain, all relieved by rest or a single nitroglycerin table. She had an episode yesterday while gardening, which lasted almost 5 minutes before subsiding after a second nitroglycerin tablet. She went to her cardiology office yesterday. An electrocardiograph (EEG) was performed, which showed marked anterior T-wave inversion in the anterior leads and she was immediately sent to this hospital for further evaluation. Atherogenic risk factor for her age includes hypercholesterolemia and hypertension; she also smokes one pack of cigarettes per day. She is not a diabetic. Her family history reveals a brother who has had a coronary artery hypass graft.Small arterial calcification is present. PHYSICAL EXAM: On exam today, blood pressure is 138/86. She has tachycardia with a pulse of 120. She is no acute distress. Her plugs are clear and she has regular rhythm without a murmur. There is no edema or distention of neck veins.CURRENT MEDICATIONS:Lovastatin 20 mg with evening mealEnalapril 20 my bidNifedpine 10 mg tidNitroglycerin 0.4 mg sublingual prn.PLAN: Cardiac catheterization with possible coronary stent if necessary. Serial ECGs Creatine Phosphokinase and troponin will be obtained to rule out myocardial infarction.

Section 4: Proofreading

The radiology report you will find below contains ten medical terminology errors. List the errors and list the correct term to be used.
