sin focalidad a nivel motor, sensitivo o visual

Spanish to English Medical Medical (general) Medical report
This is in a discharge report (from Spain) for a patient who has had a TIA. Full context as follows:

Cuadro de 45 minutos aproximados de alteración para la pronunciación y parafasias fonémicas con algunos bloqueos.
Obedecía órdenes y ha asistido en el vestido para venir a Urgencias, sin focalidad a nivel motor, sensitivo o visual.

I have seen various other entries for focalidad and foco in the glossary, but I can't find a translation that fits this exact context.

Note from asker:
