Czech to English
Medical
Medical (general)
General examination
The above is part of a Czech medical exam, in the general part where the abdomen is being checked. Here is the whole context:
"Břícho: měkké, prohmatné, palp. nebol. HO, LO, tapot. bilat. negat. ..."
The only part I do not understand at all is "HO, LO, tapot." I gave more for context.
What do these abbreviations and words mean in English?
Thanks,
Stephen

no pain on palpation in the hepatic and spleen region, percussion bilaterally negative
"palp.nebolestivé" stands for "palpačně nebolestivé" "no pain/tenderness on palpation"
"tapot. " means "percussion"
"prohmatné" means that on palpation and deep palpation you don't meet any abnormal resistance
but no idea about HO and LO, I think it refers to abdominal regions, but I couldn't find the full Czech term. Maybe it is "liver region" and "spleen region" "hepatická oblast" "slezinná oblast" as already Misha suggested, but not sure.
