With Exploring Medical Language, 10th Edition, you can now master medical terms on your terms! At the heart of this one-of-a-kind learning package is an innovative worktext, which enables you to gradually acquire an understanding of medical terminology by first learning word parts and then learning how to combine the parts into full medical terms that make sense. Perhaps even better is the wide range of engaging online learning tools — tools like interactive games, puzzles, application activities, and on-the-go auditory reviews — that come with the worktext to help reinforce your learning and help you understand how the terms are used in the professional world. In all, this is the only resource on the market that incorporates all the proven methods for mastering medical terminology that work best for today’s learners. Systematic presentation of medical terminology provides a foundation of word parts (prefixes, suffixes, and word roots), then builds words by combining the parts. Comprehensive coverage of words that are built from word parts and other important terms creates a distinction between terms built from word parts and those not easily recognized as built from word parts and provides thorough coverage of both. Over 400 flashcards enable readers to review word parts when and where they want. Margin boxes detail important information such as medical terminology facts and tips, historical information, weblinks, and complementary and alternative medicine terms. Simulations of electronic health records familiarize readers with the growing use of EHRs in healthcare settings.

A supplement to the new 6th edition of Exploring Medical Language, this online course helps the student develop the specialized vocabulary needed in the clinical setting, and the word analysis skills needed to define unfamiliar terms. The course is organized by body system and offers a wide range of interactive exercises and media elements such as animations and slide shows with audio narration. These elements amplify text content, synthesize concepts presented in the text, reinforce learning, and demonstrate the practical application of medical language. Online course management offers features such as a calendar, real-time chat, e-mail connections, a bulletin board, grade book, and instructor syllabus. Interactive exercises offer frequent opportunities to recall and recognize medical terms, with word building, identification, spelling, pronunciation, matching, multiple choice, true or false, fill-in-blank, labeling, and case studies. Original art includes more than 450 anatomical illustrations, over 650 disease and disorder illustrations, and many new drawings and graphics. More than 35 animations and narrated slide shows demonstrate physiologic processes. Icons alert the learner to important elements such as Factoids, Learning Links, and Discussion Topics. Bolded and linked terms connect students to definitions and audio pronunciations in the glossary. Glossary defines more than 5,000 terms, and includes pronunciations in English and Spanish. A Self-Mastery Quiz and Self-Mastery Exam follow each module. The design is based on the book's new design, with an overall interface enhancement. New terms and abbreviations are added, such as complementary and alternative medicine terminology, reflecting advances in technology and changes in the health care delivery system. Medical Report Activity requires students to locate answers to questions related to medical terminology in mock medical reports. Spanish translations and pronunciations are included for all glossary terms Expanded "threaded" case studies present a patient with a medical condition that pertains to the body system being discussed, then the patient is revisited throughout the modules, keeping the student engaged and providing a "real-world" application. More interactive exercises are provided, with "mini-activities" placed throughout the lessons rather than only at the end, thus giving students the opportunity to test their knowledge in smaller "chunks." More end-of-module case studies are included, with questions that utilize the medical terms describing the condition.
