About this ebook
Medical Terminology Simplified: A Programmed Learning Approach by Body System (7th Edition) by Barbara A. Gylys and Regina M. Masters covers fundamental word-building blocks and explicitly groups advanced vocabulary by individual body systems. [1]
The complete breakdown of the chapters and structural topics featured in the 7th edition includes the following units: [1, 2]
Foundational Principles
  • Introduction to Programmed Learning and Medical Word Building: Understanding word roots, combining vowels, combining forms, prefixes, and suffixes.
  • Body Structure: Structural organization (cells, tissues, organs), anatomical positions, body planes, directions, and body cavities. [1, 2, 3]
Body Systems Chapters
  • Integumentary System: Skin layers, hair, nails, and associated sebaceous and sweat glands.
  • Respiratory System: Upper and lower respiratory tracts, airways, lungs, and the mechanics of breathing.
  • Cardiovascular and Lymphatic Systems: Heart, blood vessels, circulation pathways, lymph nodes, spleen, and lymphatic fluid.
  • Digestive System: The gastrointestinal tract from the mouth to the anus, alongside accessory organs like the liver and pancreas.
  • Urinary System: Kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder, urethra, and fluid filtration mechanics.
  • Reproductive Systems: Both male and female reproductive anatomy, functions, and obstetrical terms.
  • Endocrine and Nervous Systems: Hormone-secreting glands, the central and peripheral nervous systems, and neurological pathways.
  • Musculoskeletal System: Bones, joints, cartilage, skeletal muscles, and ligaments.
  • Special Senses (The Eyes and Ears): Vision, hearing, equilibrium, and sensory sensory pathways. [1, 2]
Core Conceptual Layers Within Each System
Every body system chapter uses a frame-based, programmed learning format that systematically breaks down: [1, 2]
  • Major Combining Forms: Specialized Greek and Latin roots specific to that system.
  • Comprehensive Pathology: Diagnostic terminology for diseases, congenital conditions, and traumatic injuries.
  • Procedures & Pharmacology: Surgical interventions, diagnostic testing, imaging, and standard therapeutic drugs.
  • Medical Records and Evaluations: Real-world electronic health record (EHR) mockups and patient case reviews. [1, 2, 3]
