Hi all -
I am translating a medical report on a patient admitted via triage as an emergency case suffering from congestive heart failure.
I have never seen the term "falla cardiaca Stevenson." In addition to numerous misspellings, it actually reads as below "...falla cardiaca stevenson d de mal pronóstico y sobrevida,..."
Here is the context:
"...paciente que según por historial clinico multiples comorbildades asociadas de enfermedad coronario multivaso, cardesfibrilados, falla cardiaca stevenson d de mal pronóstico y sobrevida, que ingreso al servcio de urgencias por dolor precordial y dolor abdominal y en servcio de triage sufre de paro prescenciado..."
If anyone can shed any light on this I would be greatly appreciative!
Thanks!

Another clinically relevant and widely used system for classifying ADHF was developed by Stevenson and colleagues.17 In contrast with the European Society of Cardiology system, this system focuses more on the severity of disease at presentation than on the cause of HF. It classifies patients on the basis of the clinical presence or absence of hypoperfusion (cold vs warm) and of congestion at rest (wet vs dry) (Fig. 2). Patients with clinical profile A (warm and dry) had a 6-month mortality rate of 11%, compared with 40% for profile C (cold and wet), which shows that these clinical profiles can have prognostic significance.
