¨estimular ambas as aurículas...estabelecer ´pacing´ simultaneamente nas duas aurículas, impedindo a assincronia auricular...¨
Estou com dificuldades com esse palavra, porque, em inglés ¨auricular¨ só significa algo a ver com os oídos, mas, estou traduzindo um artigo sobre cardiologistos. Eu quero falar que o autor queria falar ¨atrio (atrium em inglés)¨, mas, se estou enganado, não quero mudar o senso do artigo. Não posso achâ-lo em nenhum do meus recursos.

: Existem inúmeras referências no Google para este termo. E não creio que estejam todas erradas, em particular as que nos chegam de sites de universidades.

Good luck!

atrial pacing is actually a common term... look under heart and/or cardiac electrophysiology in google

Just a note for Antonio about usage. It wasn't my intention to imply the word auricular was "wrong." However, idiomatic usage is as important as the translation. Obviously, I'm speaking from a N.A. perspective, but after many years in cardiac research, I still find the word auricular somewhat odd. It may be that it is very popular in some other part of the English world. The key as usual :) is the intended audience. Cheers!
