ES>EN abbreviations RR, Dx imp., Hx, R/O, PUD

[Guest guest]

A handful of abbreviations from a medical report: RR, Dx imp., Hx, R/O,

PUD. Source excerpts below. I've tentatively put 'Dx imp.' as 'diagnoses.'

PUD was also listed together with DM (diabetes mellitus) for the patient's

father in the family medical history portion.

Corazón: RR HR 112/min

Heart: ?? Heartbeat rate 112/min

-------------

Dx imp. (1) Hipertensión arterial

(2) DM por Hx

(3) R/O PUD

Diagnoses: (1) Arterial hypertension

(2) Diabetes mellitus for ??

(3) ?/? ???

Would anyone have some clues as to what is meant here?

HR is heart rate

RR is usually respiration rate. Or R-R intervals (used to calculate HR).

Hx=history

PUD= peptic ulcer disease

R/O= rule out

Best regards,
