醫(yī)學英語：教授病患注射胰島素

Mr. Vega, I'll show you how to use your insulin pen now.

韋嘉先生，我來教你使用胰島素筆。

OK.

好的。

Before we start, we'll wash our hands.

開始注射前，我們需要清洗雙手。

OK. I've got everything ready on the trolley.

好的。手推車上的一切已經準備妥當。

First, take the cover off the insulin pen.

首先，取下胰島素筆上的蓋子。

Right.

好的。

Now, use an alcohol wipe to clean the rubber seal on the end of the insulin pen.

現(xiàn)在，用酒精棉擦拭胰島素筆末端的橡膠封閉口消毒。

OK.

好的。

Now, screw the needle onto the end of the insulin pen.

接著，把針頭擰緊到胰島素筆的末端。

OK. Now it's put together, right?

好了，現(xiàn)在安裝完畢，對嗎？

That's right. Next, you have to prime the insulin pen.

沒錯。然后，你需要填充胰島素筆。

What does that mean?

你的意思是？

It means that you have to get the insulin right to the end of the needle.

你需要把胰島素放置到針頭的另一端。

I see. How do I do that?

我懂了，我該怎么做？

Firstly, turn the end of the pen to number 2.

首先 ，把胰島素筆的另一端轉向2號瓶。

Number 2 in the window.

2號瓶在窗口處。

That's it. Then get the insulin to the end of the needle to prime the pen.

非常好。然后用針頭把胰島素吸入到胰島素筆內。

OK.

好的。

That's it. You can see the drop of insulin at the end of the needle.

沒錯。你可以看到針頭另一端的胰島素液體。

Yes.

是的。

Next, turn the end of the pen to dial the dose of insulin.

然后，用胰島素筆的末端調試劑量。

Right. I need 12 units.

是的，我需要12個單位。

Now, pinch up some skin on your abdomen so it's easier to inject the insulin.

現(xiàn)在，捏緊腹部的皮膚以便注射。

Like this, so the skin's raised?

像這樣，將皮膚捏緊？

That's it. Hold the pen up and inject into the raised skin.

對，將筆拿起來然后注射進皮膚。

OK. Hold pen upright and inject.

好的。拿起筆然后注射。

Finally, hold in the button at the end of the pen and count to 5 so all the insulin goes in.

最后，按住筆端的按鈕靜待5秒鐘，讓胰島素充分注入皮膚。

OK. 1-2-3-4-5.

好的，1-2-3-4-5。

That's it. Now you put the pen away until you need it next time.

很好?，F(xiàn)在把筆取下放好，等待下次使用。

OK.

好的。

Do I have to keep the insulin pen in the fridge?

我是不是得把胰島素筆放進冰箱里存放？

No. You mustn't store the insulin pen in the fridge.

不用。胰島素筆是不需要放進冰箱的。

Why's that?

為什么？

Insulin shouldn't be too hot or too cold, so it's best to store the pen at room temperature.

胰島素存放溫度不應過高或多低，所以將其存放在室溫狀態(tài)下最佳。

Right. So, why do I use the cool pouch for then?

好的。那這些冰袋的作用的什么？

Use the cool pouch when you travel so the insulin stays at the right temperature.

冰袋是為了保證在你外出時，胰島素依然能夠在適宜溫度下存放。

That's handy.

非常方便
