What Do Medical Abbreviations Mean?

Your health records include important information on diagnoses, blood tests, doctor’s notes, and prescriptions. However, confusing medical abbreviations and complex terminology make it hard for patients to fully grasp their health data.

Although patient portals have made it easier for people to access their medical records, many patients still struggle to understand them. That’s because the language found in medical records is designed for healthcare professionals rather than patients.

DrOwl translates healthcare records into clear language, which helps patients understand confusing medical abbreviations like:

  • ACL (Anterior cruciate ligament)
  • CC (Chief complaint)
  • DNR (Do not resuscitate)
  • FX (Fracture)
  • IM (Intramuscular)
  • PFT (Pulmonary function test)

DrOwl Explains Medical Abbreviations and Complex Health Terms 

Our app lets patients see the full view of their health history by interpreting medical records. DrOwl uses a medical-language AI that takes confusing abbreviations and language and translates them into plain English. While generative AI is trained on broad datasets, our app is trained on healthcare documentation to help patients decipher their medical records.
