Spanish term
tórax de control se dará salida
Spanish to English
Medical
Medical (general)
It comes from a hospital doctor's report on someone admitted with a knif e wound defined as an "herida toraco-abdominal".
The full phrase is "De acuerdo a Hemograma y RX.Tórax de control se dará salida"
I get the first part but not the second. I don't usually do medical translations so am very grateful for any help here! Thanks!

In conformity with the hemogram and the check-up/monitoring chest X-ray, discharge is approved
PDF] Caso Radiológico Pediátrico
In Costa Rica, we always say SE LE DA LA SALIDA AL PACIENTE// LE DIERON LA SALIDA AL PACIENTE. And the RX TORAX DE CONTROL is for monitoring or checking up on the thorax to see how it's coming along.
GOOD LUCK!
"De acuerdo a Hemograma y RX.Tórax de control se dará salida"

It was lacking a comma in the original, after CONTROL.

Without more context I don't know if he will be discharged, or merely sent on to another department of the hospital.

: normally they say "dar de alta" to discharge from hospital

That is the formal term for discharge, the note may be somewhat informal, or, as I mention, could refer to sending the patient on, to another department, for instance.

Agreed- "chest x-ray" is more common.

Spanish term (edited):
t�rax de control se dar� salida
discharge
First of all, the RC goes with Tórax and refers to a chest x-ray. I wonder if there is any more context to help us. My idea (though not very sure) is that the phrase is suggesting discharge for the patient depending on the results of the full blood count (hemograma) and chest x-ray. Even knowing where the sentence comes in the report would be useful. If it is near/at the end, then that would support my opinion, if it is near the beginning then I am surely wrong!
In spain, the usual term for discharge is "alta" but I wonder if this term is used in S. Am. Spanish.
Good luck.
Philip

Oops. Where I put \"RC\" in the first line should read \"RX\". Sorry.

Gerard, for some reason my additional note didn\'t appear. I try again.
You got in first with the idea of discharge. I only read your answer line and not your comments. You also included the idea of transfer to another ward/department and I think this term could certainly be used for such a transfer (eg. ITU to general ward). Sorry to have butted in on your answer.

: Yes, my interpretation, before reading Elena's explanation, was "Based on the results of the routine blood panel and chest x-ray, the patient will be discharged" -- not transferred.

Thanks, Muriel. It is slightly strangely worded so I think Jacob will have to make the final decision based on more context.

Unfortunately the punctuation is exactly as I put it. Typical doctors notes in that respect. Thanks all!
