positivité électrique ergométrique

French to English Medical Medical: Cardiology myocaridal perfusion imaging
Hi,

The patient underwent a bicycle exercise test and it was decided that he should undergo a new coronary angiogram given the "majoration de la positivité électrique ergométrique avec ischémie inférieure à la scintigraphie myocardique"

Thanks

That makes sense to me Anne. Could you offer it as an answer. Thanks
Anne Schulz Jun 22, 2018:
I wonder if "ergométrique" goes with "majoration", in the sense of 'enhancement of positivity of electrophysiological signs of ischemia during ergometry' – meaning, the patient previously had signs of ischemia on resting ECGs which now came out more pronounced during ergometry.

French term (edited): majoration de positivité électrique ergométrique
Selected

enhancement of positive (pathological) electrophysiological findings upon ergometry

Most likely not the wording which would normally be used in an English report, but that's the idea, IMO (see discussion box).
