Medical - Medical: Health Care
Italian term or phrase: stazionario
An entry in the medical diary kept by the nursing staff says:

"Paziente stazionario. Apiretico."

Does stazionario here mean stable or non-ambulatory?

I know that le condizioni del malato sono stazionarie means that the patient is stable, but I am wondering whether they actually mean non-ambulatory here?

Grazie!!
