Japanese term or phrase: 遠隔期
皆様へ、
いつもお世話になっております。
今度、遠隔期についての質問がありますので、よろしくお願いします。

I think 遠隔期 would be translated as "long-term" outcomes, but recently, I have come across studies that have translated this as "medium-term" or "mid-term" outcomes. the translation in these cases was done by a native Japanese speaker. I think the use of 長期 for "long-term" outcomes is straightforward, but would like some further guidance regarding the nuance of 遠隔期.

Context:
可能であれば遠隔期成績すなわち弁尖の耐久性はどうなのかという論文も検討する
サイズを選択しなければ，遠隔期の逆流再発する可能性がある

では、引き続き、どうぞ、よろしくお願いします。

本来「遠隔期」には、長短の定義はないと思われます。

post-discharge period


Explanation:
I think here the distance/remoteness (遠隔) refers to the fact the patient is no longer in the healthcare facility. This is why you can find mid-term and long-term events.
