Norwegian to English translations [PRO] Medical - Medical: Health Care
Norwegian term or phrase: blindt Det er snakk om en undersøkelse som ender blindt. M.a.o. er det vel snakk om resultatløst. Vil også anta at det er mulig aa bruke blind på engelsk, men om det er et uttrykk for dette (som det sikkert er) så tar jeg gjerne imot dette. Takker!

ender blindt blind-ended Explanation: Hvis det gjelder en undersøkelse, er det vel idiomatisk riktig med "resultless" eller noe i den retningen. Kommer an på hvor formell teksten er. Hvis det derimot er snakk om organer og lignende, ser jeg at "blind" brukes på norsk og engelsk: "Den vanligste formen for øsofagusatresi kjennetegnes ved at den øvre del av spiserøret ender blindt et stykke nedenfor svelget." http://www.rikshospitalet.no/portal/page/portal/no/forsiden/... "A wound sinus is a discharging blind-ended track that extends from the surface..." http://www.jcn.co.uk/journal.asp?MonthNum=06&YearNum=2008&Ar...

INCONCLUSIVE eller NO SPECIFIC RESULTS FOUND Explanation: Det, ifoelge legen min, om man mener at alle mulige testene er blitt utfoert uten uvanlig resultat. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day16 hrs (2008-07-30 23:24:26 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Frode A. har rett med anbefalte "inconclusive". Bruk av "reach/hit a DEAD end" er derimot litt tvilsomt og ikke noeytralt i dette tilfellet (medisinsk) -- tenk om pasienten er foran doedens doer -- da blir det litt "insensitive" bruk av spraaket.	lingo_montreal Local time: 12:31 Specializes in field Native speaker of: English PRO pts in category: 4
Notes to answerer Asker: Takk for tilbakemelding. Vet ikke hvorfor jeg ikke klarte å se dette utifra Frodes svar, men ser det nå. Tusen takk for hjelpen. Gir dermed Frode the benefits :o)
