English to Spanish Other Medical: Health Care description of procedure- chart document-cardiology
Al final del Informe de Diagnóstico de Cateterismo Cardíaco aparece:

xxx, M.D.

D: 06/12/2015 #123987/45697
T:07/12/2015 10:50 A/vs

"D" he supuesto que se refiere a "Date" y "T" a "Termination" (de la intervención que ha durado un día) pero puestos a imaginar A/vs no tengo ni idea
¿Me podéis dar alguna idea al respecto?

Gracias como siempre por la ayuda brindada.

ST Elizabeth's Hospital in Illinois. The surgery perfomed was: cornary artery bypass grafting x3. In this first medical record also appears at the end D: 5/10/2015P #46987/5269 and T: 5/10/2015 02:14P/ma .
In the second medical record (where appears at the end my open question) the surgery performed was a cardiac catheterization together with an angiography.
Is P/ma and A/vs related?
thanks in advance for your help!

T is not termination date of admission/date of discharge
was the patient admitted a day before the intervention? If yes, the first is the date of admission, and the second is the Time when the intervention was performed. What was performed? A cardiac catheterization or an angiography?
Erzsébet Czopyk Aug 3, 2016:
more context please
Erzsébet Czopyk Aug 3, 2016:
vs, versus vs from Latin versus. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/versus
Which city? Which hospital?

Cardiac catheterization used with coronary angiography is the most accurate method of diagnosing coronary artery disease. Used together, the two procedures are the only way to directly measure the pressure of blood in each chamber of the heart and to obtain an image of the interior of coronary arteries. These procedures are done to determine whether angioplasty or coronary artery bypass surgery is technically feasible. They may be done to confirm the diagnosis of other heart disorders, to determine the severity of a heart disorder, or to detect the cause of worsening symptoms.
Note from asker:
Thank you Erzsébet! but still the enigma with the acronyms :( Can you figure out what is P/ma and A/vs?I have no idea what it is.
