Italian term

supporto aminico

Italian to English Medical Medical: Cardiology Patient hospital report
Not a very nice subject if you're eating your breakfast. A patient choked on her vomit, stopped breathing and became comotose. After that:
"La paziente veniva intubata e trasferita presso U.O. Rianimazione dove giugeva in coma e con quadro di instabilita emodinamica che richiedeva supporto aminico".
I'm not sure what "supporto aminico" is. Anybody know?

link? that's interesting Joseph, all because of a different spelling! I can't seem to find the question though, do you have a link for it? Thanks

supporto aMMinico Search this phrase in KudoZ ... you'll see a question that I asked several years ago. (I think the more correct spelling is with one M.)
