Clinical notes include medical terminology and abbreviations written in a standard format. The Resource button on MyUCDavisHealth offers multiple information sources including Healthwise, Medline Plus and additional health education resources to clarify information in the notes. A typical note contains four sections: 1 Subjective - Patients and other sources provide the subjective information. This includes the reason for the visit, current symptoms, and may include other details, such as past medical information or medications. Think of this as the ‘story’ of the reason for your hospital or clinic visit. 2 Objective - Vital signs, physical exam, and test results are included in the Objective section. This is what the team learned by examining you and doing tests. 3 Assessment – The clinician describes their diagnosis, or potential diagnoses, based on the subjective and objective information from the visit. It may include a differential diagnosis, which is a discussion of possible diagnoses considered, including some discarded diagnoses, based on the information from the visit. 4 Plan – Finally, the plan is about next steps; what the care team recommends or is going to do as a result of the visit and evaluation. The plan may include behavioral or lifestyle changes, further testing, prescription or over-the-counter medications, referrals, procedures, as well as follow-up appointment needs.
The website medlineplus.gov is a great place to identify common medical terms, abbreviations and acronyms. In addition, during an appointment, ask your care team member to help when you don’t understand something in your notes.
