EN or ES-EN: medical word for farts

[Guest guest]

A very serious medical paper reports that a healthy person emits from

200 mL to 2000 mL of gas per day in 14 ±6 " ventosidades " (farts).

I am loath to use " farts " in a medical paper, but saying " flatulence "

would imply more than individual farts. When you stop laughing could you

suggest a better alternative?

Thank you for any input concerning this output.

Thanks,

Burns
