Medical - Medical: Pharmaceuticals / transcription
German term or phrase: inpregnata
What does it mean when a German doctor says "inpragnata" or "inpregnata"? It might be a latin term... in context it could mean "included".

The sentence is (in reference to whether a medical text should be shortened):

"Alles was nicht dasteht, was man kuerzer macht, ist pregnanta"
