"Battements de cœur" or "Battements cardiaques"

In this context, "BB" likely stands for "Battements de cœur" or "Battements cardiaques", which translates to "heartbeats" in English. The report appears to be measuring or documenting the number of heartbeats per hour, as suggested by the phrase "BB par heure."
Example sentence:

The report tracks the patient's heart rate, with "BB" referring to "heartbeats" recorded per hour.

Peer comment(s):
