English term

+ or – the patient

English to Portuguese Medical Medical (general)
During the procedure, the patient will require close observation to prevent complications associated with PD (peritoneal dyalisis). The nursing care of this patient requires the nurse to:
Monitor for respiratory distress, which could happen from increased intrathoracic pressure from increased intraabdominal pressure as fluid enters the peritoneal space.
Monitor the patient for changes in temperature, which can indicate peritonitis.
Closely watch dialysate infuse and drain. A kink or clotting of the catheter from exudate can cause slower infusing and draining times. It can also stop the drainage.
Record the output of the dialysis and relate it to the amount infused and the total amount + or – the patient during the treatment period.

Sim, Leonor, perfeito! Acho que é isso mesmo!
Quer postar?
Muitíssimo obrigada!
Leonor Abeca (X) Feb 11, 2012:
Faria sentido tratar-se de administrados e eliminados; seria o tipo de notação adoptado localmente, se for usado de forma consistente noutros locais
Maiza Ritomy (asker) Feb 11, 2012:
Parece mesmo estar faltando algo...
Não parece também estar faltando algo como "fluid" or "liquid"?
Total amount of what?

Muito obrigada!
Katarina Peters Feb 10, 2012:
Something is missing in the original sentence Shouldn't it read " ...the total amount + or - given to the patient..." in order to make sense ?

Sugestão:
Registrar a saída da diálise e relacioná-la com a quantidade infundida e a quantidade total aproximadamente do paciente durante o período de tratamento.
