Medical - Medical (general) / cardiology - hospitalization report
Italian term or phrase: compenso di circolo
This reports on the hospital course of a patient admitted for an anterior STEMI. The complete sentence reads "Il compenso di circolo e' sempre stato buono."

We have had several previous questions about "compenso;" I'm just not completely sure that it's correct to say "(good) circulatory compensation" in English usage.

Please confirm that it's OK to say it this way, or let me know the correct standard usage. An explanation of what "compenso di circolo" is all about, physiologically, would also be nice.

Grazie mille.

hemodynamically compensated/stable
Explanation:
Not much context in your query, but from other "compenso" questions I take it that the term refers to the general cardiocirculatory situation being "compensated", rather than to "compensation" of blocked perfusion by local collaterals.

What does it mean, physiologically? The easiest explanation is probably "not decompensated". The patient's normal cardiocirculatory regulation can provide for sufficient and sufficiently stable blood pressure and perfusion, even though the heart is weakened by the acute MI.

"Compensated" is probably ok, but "stable" is probably more commonly used. "Circulation" or "(cardio)circulatory" is probably ok, but "hemodynamically" is probably more common. Pick your choice :-)

so
that should be

compensatory circulation

or

compensatory blood flow

It seems reasonable to assume that after occlusion of one of the major blood vessels of the brain adequate compensatory or collateral circulation must develop.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Ciao Liz, thanks for the suggestion. I don't think that in this case it applies to collateral circulation that's produced when an artery is blocked. My idea is that it has more to do with the patient's overall cardiovascular condition, as Anne has written. I'm just not sure how to express that.

circulatory compensation


Explanation:
"The imposition of an orthostatic stress, such as standing, causes a rapid gravitational displacement of approximately 500-700 mL of central blood volume into the splanchnic and lower extremity vascular beds. If uncompensated, this can result in orthostatic intolerance. Normal circulatory compensation for orthostasis occurs rapidly via the sympathetic and parasympathetic arms of the autonomic nervous system for appropriate heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP) control."
https://www.cardioaragon.com/wp-content/uploads/Benefits-ora...

"In myocardial failure, heart valvular disease, and congenital abnormalities of the heart, an important circulatory compensation is an increase in blood volume, which helps to return cardiac output and blood pressure to normal."

Il compenso di circolo è sempre stato buono
The circulatory state remains well compensated


Explanation:
Using the adjective compensated rather than the noun sounds more natural in this case.
