French term
pas de signe de *surcharge*
It reads as follows (in part) :
'Electrocardiogramme : Rythme sinusal a 75/min, pas de signe ischemique, pas de signe surcharge. Pas de troiuble de la conduction. QT corrige 424 ms.
Though I have been explained the meaning of 'surcharge' in this context, I am still looking for a correct rendering.
Any help would be appreciated.

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

: I'm not sure about this one. He may have meant "hypertrophy". Your own reference uses it. RVH and LVH refer to right and left ventricular hypertrophy, respectively.//It's not a term I see in English, day to day. The EKG changes are similar to hypertrophy

sure, but there is a big difference between "surcharge" and "hypertrophie ventriculaire" in terms on vocab.

Reference comments
Following through liz's reference
L’hypertrophie/dilatation ventriculaire associe de façon variable une augmentation d’amplitude, de durée et une déviation axiale des complexes QRS du côté de l’hypertrophie et des troubles particuliers de repolarisation appelés « signes de surcharge » (cf. HVG, HVD et Surcharge ventriculaire).
Clicking on link "HVD" – https://www.e-cardiogram.com/hypertrophie-vd-1-diagnostic/
Signes de surcharge ventriculaire droite (ST descendant et/ou ondes T négatives dans les dérivations précordiales droites V1-V3 et/ou frontales inférieures) (cf. Cardiopathie arythmogène du ventricule droit ou HTAP).
On distingue trois types électriques d’HVD de mécanisme différent et de sévérité décroissante :
Le Type A produit une grande onde R monophasique ou un aspect qR en V1 qui correspond à une surcharge barométrique importante avec hypertrophie concentrique du VD...
Le Type B réalise un aspect rS, avec des petites ondes R dans l’ensemble des dérivations précordiales de V1 à V6,...
Le Type C réalise un aspect rSR’ avec R’ ≥ 8 mm et se voit essentiellement dans les surcharges volumétriques..., (où r représente l’activation septale, S l’activation pariétale des ventricules et R’ l’activation terminale de la partie basale du ventricule droit hypertrophié). Le diagnostic différentiel est donc un bloc de branche droit.
Clicking on link "HVG" – https://www.e-cardiogram.com/hypertrophie-vg-1-diagnostic/ :
L’hypertrophie/dilatation du VG prolonge et retarde les vecteurs de dépolarisation ventriculaire gauche et s’accompagne de troubles secondaires de repolarisation (cf. Surcharge ventriculaire gauche) qui s’expliquent par la perte de capacité des cellules épicardiques à se repolariser avant les cellules endocardiques (en raison de l’épaisseur du muscle et des conditions d’ischémie relative).
Clicking on link "ventriculaire" – https://www.e-cardiogram.com/indice-dhvg-1-generalites/ :
Indice d’HVG :
Indices de voltage combinés :
Score de Framingham : (RVL > 11 mm) ou (RDI + SDIII > 25 mm) ou (SV1/2/3 > 25 mm) + (RV4/5/6 > 25 mm) ou (SV1-2 + RV5-6 > 35 mm) ou surcharge ventriculaire (1 point par item)
Indices indirects qui renforcent la présomption d’HVG :
Surcharge ventriculaire (remodelage). Il s’agit d’une anomalie assez » spécifique » de la repolarisation ou » strain pattern « . Le strain pattern est parfois seul le signe en faveur d’une HVG
Searching for "Framingham index", e.g. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2856691/ confirms "strain pattern" :
Framingham ECG score (presence of a strain pattern and at-least one of the following voltage criteria – RI + SIII ≥ 2.5 mV, SV1/V2 + RV5/V6 ≥ 3.5 mV, the S wave on the right precordial lead ≥ 2.5 mV and the R wave on the left precordial lead ≥ 2.5 mV)
Strain pattern may therefore be the term you are looking for, but it's an ambiguous choice since your text only gives "signe surcharge". This could refer to the set term of "signe de surcharge" in the sense of repolarisation changes in left ventricular hypertrophy, as quoted in liz's reference – but couldn't it also be "evidence of 'surcharge'" with surcharge being used in the general sense of surcharge barometrique/volumetrique (pressure/volume overload, syn. systolic/diastolic overload)?
Being placed in contrast and supplement to "signe ischemique", without any other specific comments on left or right ventricular or atrial changes, I'd be surprised if "signe surcharge" referred to a specific repolarisation pattern.

Michael Barnett
: Perhaps "surcharge" is being used for what we would usually call "hypertrophy with strain". The EKG description that I read from other sources appears to be identical. In English, "overload" would more commonly be seen on an echo, referring to dilatation.

Perhaps – but we will never know since the asker chose not to share the explanation she received of "surcharge", nor the specific concerns of her British doctor friend or the solution she found elsewhere :-(

ECG. Les signes sont spécifiques mais peu sensibles, comparés aux méthodes modernes d’imagerie. Néanmoins, l’ECG garde sa place compte tenu de sa disponibilité, de son coût et des renseignements pronostics indépendants qu’il procure.
–> L’hypertrophie/dilatation atriale associe de façon variable une augmentation d’amplitude, de durée et une déviation axiale de l’onde P du côté de l’« hypertrophie » (cf. HAD, HAG).
–> L’hypertrophie/dilatation ventriculaire associe de façon variable une augmentation d’amplitude, de durée et une déviation axiale des complexes QRS du côté de l’hypertrophie et **des troubles particuliers de repolarisation appelés « signes de surcharge » (cf.
