Italian term

S=D

Italian to English Medical Medical: Cardiology TEE report
Al pattern di riempimento delle vene polmonari S=D in assenza di reverse flow sistolico
This was translated as
S= D pattern of filling of pulmonary veins in the absence of reverse systolic flow

I am reviewing a translation and request confirmation from someone in the know - Shouldn't this be, at the very least, L=R ?

Cedric Randolph Dec 4, 2019:
S - D = L - R It seems you are right.
Shabelula Dec 4, 2019:
S sistole
D diastole

S=D (peak systolic and diastolic velocities)

In questo link:
https://www.giornaledicardiologia.it/allegati/00733_2004_02/...

all'inizio della pagina 89:
Vanno così registrate le seguenti velocità di flusso polmonare (m/s): velocità di picco sistolico (S) e velocità di picco protodiastolico(D) che sono velocità anterograde e quindi si evidenziano al di sopra della linea di base

Penso che nel tuo testo S e D si riferiscano proprio a questo.

In inglese, vedi questo link:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4609163/

"the ratio between the peak systolic and diastolic velocities (S/D ratio) was the best predictor of heart failure readmissions."

Spero che ti sia utile.
