Spanish term

debido a una hipopotasemia demostrada

Spanish to English Art/Literary Medical (general) hypertension drug
The main problem I am having in this sentence is actually with "demostrada". I am not sure what the author really means: "proven/demonstrated/evidenced hypopotassaemia" (UK spelling)

Si, debido a una hipopotasemia demostrada, se considera indicado el uso concomitante de estos productos, se deberán utilizar con precaución y realizar una vigilancia frecuente del potasio sérico.

If, xxxxx, concomitant use of these products is considered appropriate, they should be used with caution...

Discussion

Carol Gullidge Feb 10, 2007:
Isn't this question supposed to be about translating "demostrada" rather than a debate on the medical terms?
Adam Burman (asker) Feb 10, 2007:
Thank you Roxanna - this clears things up for me!
Sergio Mazzini Feb 10, 2007:
"evidenced" is the best choice
Roxanna Delgado Feb 9, 2007:
Adam, although hypopotassemia is correct, hypokalemia is way more frequent, medically speaking.

due to the low potassium blood level found/detected/shown

Aunque me da muchísima risa lo de "hipopotasemia", es eso!
Peer comment(s):

agree Margarita M. Martínez : Hipopotasemia, sí, nivel bajo de potasio debido generalmente a la "poliuria" (orinar en exceso) causada por diuréticos. Para evitar eso inventarion los diuréticos "ahorradores de potasio" (que eso sí me parece más gracioso. Suena a bombillo ahorrador).

Gracias, Margarita.
neutral celiacp : "low potassium blood level" in medical jargon is called "hypokalaemia"/"hypokalemia"
11 mins
You are right, Celia. Sounds more technical. Thanks!
agree Carol Gullidge : the question was more about "demostrada" than the technical terminology. I'd use "found" or "detected"

demonstrated hypokalemia

"demostrada" se refiere a que ha sido corroborada por un análisis de laboratorio y no solamente sospechada clinicamente.
Example sentence:

"...if concomitant use of these agents is indicated because of demonstrated hypokalemia, use caution and monitor serum potassium frequently"
