Hi,
This is the what it means. I´m trying to find out how to translate it into English.
Cheers,

"A esta condición se le ha denominado "zona eléctricamente inactivable" (ZEI) y es inespecífica en cuanto se refiere al origen de la zona de inactivación."

I think I´d go with "inactivable zone" or "inactivable myocardial zone".
Saludos,
