(or)

Spanish to English Medical Medical: Health Care
In a lab report, specifically a urinalysis, this appears repeatedly:

- Orina: Glucosa (or) Negativo mg/dl, Proteínas (or) Negativo mg/dl, Bilirrubina (or)
Negativo mg/dl, Urobilinógeno (or) 0.2 mg/dl, pH (or) 6.5 pH, Densidad (or) 1009 ,
Cetonas (or) Negativo mg/dl, Sangre (or) Negativo mg/dl, Leucocitos (or) Negativo
mg/dl, Nitritos (or) Negativo , SEDIMENTO URINARIO: No procede examen
microscópico.

Is it just short for "orina"? Seems strange, since the context already tells us these are urine values.

Thanks!

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Nelson Soares

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.

Agree It does seem strange/redundant initially, but I think it's just because of the shorthand used to signify that the tests are for these values in the urine rather than in any other bodily fluid or organ.

Se trata de orina, una abreviatura. En inglés "urine".
