OPQRST is a great acronym for understanding the history of the problem – but it requires some special vocabulary and grammar to take an HPI in Spanish.
Learn how to collect important history information and conduct an HPI in Spanish like: Onset, Location, Duration, Aggravating factors, Relieving factors, Treatments, & Severity.
As we all know, there is a lot of flexibility with the Spanish language, and you have many options to ask the same question or say the same sentence. That’s the reason why I want to list a handful of options for the OPQRST categories, that way you can take what works for you and also learn some new verbs and structures in the Spanish language.
Here is the OPQRST in Spanish lesson I taught to the Facebook group:
