WHAT IS IT? BEGAN IN 300 BC WITH THE WRITING OF HIPPOCRATES AND ARISTOTLE BASED ON LATIN AND GREEK ROOTS ALLOWS HEALTH CARE WORKERS TO COMMUNICATE ACCURATLY AND PRECISELY Spelling and pronunciation are important

HIPPOCRATES IDENTIFIED AND LABELED MANY DISEASES AND ILLNESSES FOR THE FIRST TIME BEGAN TO ORGANIZE AND CATEGORIZE ILLNESS Acute, chronic, endemic, epidemic, exacerbation, relapse, resolution, crisis, peak, and convalescence

ARISTOTLE GREEK PHILOSOPHER AND MATHEMATICIAN STUDIED MANY ILLNESS AND DISEASES AND FORMED TERMINOLOGY Substance, accident, quality, quantity, relaxation

CURRENT EXAMPLES ARTHRITIS ELECTROCARDIOGRAM HEPATITIS ANEMIA GASTROENTERITIS

HOW DO WE UNDERSTAND ALL OF THESE TERMS? BEGIN BY KNOWING THE COMPONENTS OF A WORD IDENTIFY THE COMPONENTS AND DETERMINE THEIR MEANING HEMATOLOGY

COMPONENTS OF A WORD PREFIX –appears at the beginning ROOT- gives the essential meaning COMBINING –connects the root and the suffix SUFFIX- appears at the end of the word LOOK AT THE WORD HEMATOLOGY

HOW DO WE BEGIN? APPEARS DIFFICULT AND CONFUSING? LOOK AT WORD AND DIVIDE INTO ITS PARTS BEGIN AT THE END OF THE WORD NOW LOOK AT THE BEGINNING OF THE WORD DETERMINE THE COMBINING VOWEL HEMAT / O / LOGY Root Combining Vowel Suffix (blood) (study of)

(root) (combining vowel) (suffix) HEMATOLOGY IS: THE STUDY OF BLOOD HOW ABOUT HEMATOLOGIST HEMAT/ O /LOGIST (root) (combining vowel) (suffix) (blood) (specialist in the)

SOME THINGS TO WATCH OUT FOR Sometimes there are two roots (previous word) When suffix begins with vowel, combing vowel is dropped Gastr/ic Cardi/ac

COMBINING FORMS GASTR/O/ENTER/O/LOGY When the combining vowel is connected to the root, it is called a COMBINING FORM (root- stomach) (root-intestines) (suffix-study of) GASTR/O/ENTER/O/LOGY (combining form) (combining form) (suffix)

COMMON PREFIXES SUB below TRANS across RETRO Behind

COMMON SUFFIXES -al -ectomy -ic -itis Pertaining to Removal, excision, cutting out -ic -itis inflammation

REVIEW Break word down into its components Prefix, root, suffix, combining vowel/forms Determine meaning of components Don’t forget suffix that begins with vowel does not have combining vowel Begin reading with the suffix After suffix, go to beginning and read across
