Polish term
RP
Polish to English

Medical: Cardiology
RR, RP, NL and NP are values registered when monitoring a child with a congenital heart defect. I know that RR is arterial pressure and it is obvious that the other terms relate to other pressure measurements, with a systolic and diastolic value being given for each. I'm guessing that RP might be pulmonary artery pressure, but am unsure.

I guess it's about pressure at the right hand (RP- ręka prawa).

Since in Polish 'ręka' means often not only hand, but also arm, I think it should rather be RA- right arm, and I found this abbreviation in a dictionary.
