Yes, Liz. Suggested treatment in light of the echocardiography findings, but I unfortunately don't have her hospitalization report!
liz askew Oct 13, 2020:
Is this the only ref. to diuretics? I did wonder about intravenous infusion.

piv au lieu de pev...
Note from asker:
Ce serait logique, surtout si c'est pendant une hospitalisation (pas précisé dans le document), mais dites-moi pourquoi "pev" pour perfusion intraveneuse?

intravenous pyelogram IVP

I haven't found conclusive evidence of this but IMO this is a way of monitoring the kidneys during Lasilix treatment.

In French pyélographie endoveineuse.

According to this intravenous and endovenous are synonyms.

Any comments on my answer?
Note from asker:
Melanie - I can't split the grading between you. But I did ask the agency to ask the client if the PEV was the procedure or if it was a typo for PIV. However, PEV if right is clearly NOT intravenous infusion and should not be indicated as such in the glossary.
