Hola PEO_625: Bueno, sí que está relacionado con la medicina (fármacos), pero más bien con la química en este apartado. Se trata de la exclusión de la humedad atmosférica de un sistema (en una atmosfera de gas inerte seco). Tienes una idea de cómo se puede decir “arrastre basal”? Muchas gracias.

Renee: ¿es psible que ese termino este relacionado a otra area como la de medicina? es para asegurarme que respuesta te seria mas util, atte. PAO

basal drag

But I agree with PEO_625, my answer is NOT for the context of chemistry/medicine, but it is the translation of arrastre basal in such things as stress modelling

drag

Is it possible that your document was translated into Spanish at some point and perhaps the term is slightly off? I think that using the term "drag" by itself would be sufficient.
Note from asker:
Hi Kelly. That's a good question, but I don't think so. As far as I can tell, the original language is Spanish. It is a very large pharmaceutical company based in the US, with a presence worldwide. The document is about drug trials that were conducted in Central and South America.
