You heard it right. In Orthopedics, you'll come across the procedure of "arthroscopy" quite a bit. The Ortho surgeon makes small incisions called "portals", through one of which he inserts the scope to look inside the joint, and through the others he inserts other instruments as needed for cutting, shaving, biopsies, etc. Once he completes the procedure, he closes those incisions which become the "portal sites" that he is talking about. He obviously is checking during the followup visit to see if there is any infection at the incision sites.

may not be saying flow, could be "for"  no discrete ??? (poital, boital, vital) for (or flow or) active bleeding.  He's ESL, but not too bad and with his dialect I think "portal" would sound clearer.

The girl that worked in my office who did transcription before I started used to type port hole instead of portal.  It looked really funny in the transcription.  For some reason, the docs never corrected her though!!!
