Noemi Fernandez Mar 23, 2018:
Hi everyone.

Apologies for not posting my doubt clearly. The term in context is "VTDA4c". As the source text was handwritten, I did not know if this was the same term or two separate ones. I assumed they were two separate terms and this was just typo mistake. Thank you for providing both options :-)
Marie Wilson Mar 22, 2018:
@ Charles What I mean is that we should always be cautious when the title and the context don't match. I wasn't paying attention!
Charles Davis Mar 22, 2018:
@Marie No, not at all! My assumption could well be wrong. It's not unknown for the question term not to be in the context quoted. Noemi may well want VTDa, in which case your answer's just what she needs. I'd just like to know, that's all.
Marie Wilson Mar 22, 2018:
@ Charles Good point. I didn't notice that, I probably shouldn't answer questions before my morning coffee.
Charles Davis Mar 22, 2018:
@Noemi Did you actually want VTDa, which doesn't occur in the text you've quoted, or VTDA4c, which does? I've assumed the latter.

EDV A4c

This is for what you actually have in your document: VTDA4c. This is two elements run together:

VTD stands for volumen telediastólico, which is the same thing as volumen diastólico final:

"Volumen al final de la diástole (telediastólico, VTD): es el volumen que contiene el ventrículo justo antes de contraerse"
http://www.ctomedicina.com/alumno_mir12/pdf/materiales/mat_i...

"En fisiología cardiaca, se llama volumen diastólico final (VDF) al volumen de sangre que llena el ventrículo del corazón al final de la fase de relajación del mismo, es decir al final de la diástole y justo antes de que comience la contracción ventricular o sístole."
https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volumen_diastólico_final

In English it's normally called end-diastolic volume (EDV):
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-diastolic_volume

The second element, A4c, means Apical 4-Chamber view and is the same in English:

"A4C, proyección apical de 4 cavidades."
https://books.google.es/books?id=T4eZUTWFhLoC&pg=PT1338&lpg=...

"Apical 4-chamber (A4C) view."
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3232574/

The combination in English usually has a space between the two elements:

"EDV (A4c; 120 ml"

Many thanks, George :-)
agree Noemi Fernandez : Thank you both. Both responses are very helpful. Charles, I appreciate the detaile explanation you offered to this term. I was certainly blocked by the "A4C" section of the term. It is all clear to me now. Thank you very much for your help :-)

Thanks very much for the clarification, Noemi :-)
agree Marie Wilson : I got the "end-diastolic volume" part right at least!

Many thanks, Marie :-) Luck of the draw, this one. But you would have got either version of the question right, I have no doubt at all!
