Romanian to English translations [PRO]
Medical - Medical (general) / Neurological report
Romanian term or phrase: critica diminuata
Following health examination, the doctor has confirmed the patient is:

"Cconștienta, orientata, critica diminuata, labila emoțional, acuitatea olfactivă păstrată......etc"

Is this simply regarding critical faculties, or is "critica" a medical test of some sort?

reduced/poor general health (acutely ill patient)
Explanation:
I think it indicates the general condition of the patient. But since the patient is conscious, I would not say "critical".

No, as they do not say anything about the course ( they don't say the condition is declining).And "reduced" general health is used and is idiomatic.

I've suggested my answer, now allow me to enjoy my Sunday.

Asker: Declining state of health?

Asker: Even declining is not accurate actually. What do you think of "conditon severely impaired"?

Asker: How about: condition is declining (as we can't really say condition is reducing)...?

Asker: Thanks for your time, enjoy your Sunday, but reduced health is not idiomatic.
