Monika C (asker) Jun 20, 2023:
The context is a medical report, no full sentences, only this: akuter Harnwegsinfekt, A.v. (N30.0A). The ICD Code for A means Ausschluss von, hence I thought it meant ruled out (excluded diagnosis), but I wanted to be sure
Steffen Walter Jun 19, 2023:
"Ausschluss von" ... ... could indeed be a possibility here, but this is pure guesswork without any context. We would need the full phrase or sentence, as Harald pointed out.
@Monika More context is needed in order to provide useful suggestions. Could you provide a full phrase please.

medical history prior to

A.v. = "Anamnese vor," = "medical history prior to"

So the information following "A.v." pertains to the patient's medical history or background prior to the current report.

agree Cenk Başaran : Ditto. N30.0 is the ICD 10 code for acute cystitis. So urinary tract infection with a history of acute cystitis.
