Assessment 1 Instructions: Progress Note: The Skin
Translate into common terms the medical terms contained in a progress note for a patient with a skin condition.
Spell all medical and common terms correctly on the provided template.
In this first assessment you will begin your exploration of the structure of medical terminology. The first step is to
review how to build a medical term. Then you will examine the skin and musculoskeletal systems; in particular, we
will focus on the diagnosis and treatment of the integumentary, or skin system. The skin is the largest organ of the
body with a total area of about 20 square feet. The skin protects us from microbes and the elements, helps regulate
body temperature, and permits the sensations of touch, heat, and cold. Your suggested resources address the three
layers of skin, skin conditions, diseases, treatment, and diagnostic studies.
In the assessment, you will review a progress note. This is a common document found in a health care record in
doctors’ offices and hospitals. You will then translate the medical terms in the progress note into common terms.

Subjective: The patient is a 49-year-old female who comes in with the complaint of having bumps on her arms. She
states some of the bumps have been there a long time. Recently the bumps have been increasing in number and
size. She was last seen about two years ago for eczema, at which time she did not have these bumps. The bumps
are not itchy or painful.
Objective: Very pleasant, alert, and oriented x3 female in no apparent distress. A full integumentary exam of the
upper extremities was performed today. The left radial aspect demonstrated erythematous macules. The right ulnar
aspect demonstrated actinic keratosis. Bilateral hands appeared dry with linear excoriation and fissuring of her
fingertips. Bilateral upper arms demonstrated superficial and deep masses. Deep subcutaneous masses are mobile
and may represent lipomas. Superficial masses appear to be sebaceous cysts.
Assessment and Plan:
1. Actinic keratosis of the right ulnar aspect was treated with liquid nitrogen.
2. Possible lipomas: Schedule surgical biopsy of larger masses.
3. Sebaceous cysts: Punch biopsy performed today; await pathology report. Apply Neosporin to biopsy site.
