Medical - Medical: Health Care / medical report
German term or phrase: die sich in unserer stationären Behandlung befand
"XXX, die sich vom [date] bis [date] in unserer stationären
Behandlung befand."


"who was in our inpatient care" seems simplest. But is there a more standard phrasing?

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Lirka: "who was an inpatient on our ward"...would also be equally OK

  -> Many thanks, lirka :))
agree  Sabine Akabayov, PhD

  -> Many thanks :))
agree  Julia Lipeles
54 mins
  -> Many thanks, Julia :))
disagree  Lancashireman: Not too impressed by this one. In the UK, ‘hospitalised’ (yes, with an ‘s’) means knocked out in a street brawl. // I suppose it's one of those 'native speaker things'.
1 hr
  -> Who claims that the term should be AE? (US inquirer!!) I admit I am not familiar with pub quiz rules and UK street habits; but while your level of objection rises, the quality of your arguments declines – this one does not even justify a 'neutral'
agree  MMUlr: a well-known term IMO (maybe more common in medical publications!?) -> http://www.journals.elsevierhealth.com/periodicals/yrmed/art...
13 hrs
  -> Many thanks :))
disagree  Helen Shiner: I'm afraid I have to agree with Andrew's comments. It does sound as if the person concerned was beaten up on the hospital premises.//Suggest you read what I have said about hospitalisation elsewhere on this page. As you have it formulated, it won't work.
21 hrs
  -> Helen, you should Google for "was hospitalized" and see the hundreds of thousands references that do not at all refer to any rumble or whatever... :-(
disagree  Maureen Millington-Brodie: "was hospitalized", however you spell it, does imply in BE that something violent or or other, sudden and/or acute emergency happened.
22 hrs
agree  Stephen Gobin: I feel I have to agree with Harald here in direct opposition to the 3 disagrees. "Hospitalise" means "to admit to hospital", but any search on UK Google will reveal that "hospitalised" is also used to mean "to be in hospital". Even by the BMJ, no less.

Note to reference poster
Asker: Hospitalization can be from a date to another date, it simply refers to hospital care and is neutral with regard to inpatient or outpatient care. However, I agree that informally at least, it has come to imply emergency care.


Peer comments on this reference comment (and responses from the reference poster)
neutral  Lancashireman: Hospiralis(or z)ation may be “universally OK” (e.g. in the planetary system of Alpha Centauri) but sounds clumsy across broad swaths of Planet Earth. However, I cannot be too sure about the U.S.A. // http://www.abbreviations.com/b1.aspx?KEY=300077
3 hrs
  -> I am an MD so don't you think that there is a high chance that I actually know?
agree  Harald Moelzer (medical-translator): Andrew probably had a bad day yesterday - loads of UK refs for hospitalisation, e.g. see http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10796354
10 hrs
  -> Seeing my nickname, Andrew often has bad days...
neutral  Helen Shiner: I'm tired (and of aggression). What Peter says is correct. One is hospitalised on a particular date, not for a period of time.
20 hrs
  -> Of course it implies at least overnight care--that's the point! From [date] to [date]
neutral  Peter Gaukrodger: 'Being hospitalised' is starting to appear in UK media - but it usually signifies being taken to hospital, not staying in hospital (see second ref above). You can be hospitalised on a date, but not normally between two dates.
20 hrs
  -> Helen Shiner from the UK claiming the exact opposite above...so what's really the case in the UK?
