Finnish term
rytminsiirto
Finnish to English
Medical
Medical (general)
"rytminsiirto" seems to be a common concept in cardiology.
E.g., a questionnaire for a cardiac study asks how many "rytminsiirrot" the patients have previously had.
However, thus far, my searches for an English equivalent have turned up nothing secure.
(For example, the hits I get for "rhythm transfer" generally seem to be translations of "rytminsiirto" itself.)
"rytminsiirto" = ???
Thanks
