IT>EN: BEV, BESV

[Guest guest]

I can confirm that BEV=battito ectopico ventricolare and BESV=battito

ectopico sopraventricolare.

I have a client that uses those to translate " VE=ventricular event " and

" SVE=supraventricular event " . Note that I translate from English into

Italian and not viceversa... my client is a US corporation.

Hello,

Could someone please confirm if " BEV " is the Italian equivalent of

ventricular tachycardia (VT)?

" BEV " appears to stand for: " battiti ectopici ventricolari " , literally,

ventricular ectopic beats. But I have not found any references for that

phrase in English.

If that is the case, then BESV (battiti ectopici supraventricolari), would

be the equivalent of supraventricular tachycardia.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Lucy
