Shane, careful! " zu beobachtende/s/r " and " Zur Beobachtung " mean very different

things! Either there is simply a condition that can be seen (observed) or there

is a problem that needs to be watched (kept

under observation)!

Hello once again. I am now working on the second last of ten documents and here

are the 10 queries that I have:

Your assistance thus far has been invaluable.

1. Insufflation von 3 l Co2-Gas is this 3 Litres?

2. Einführen eines Taststabes über eine zweiten Trokar

What is a " Taststab " I have 'touch rod' but that is my invention.

3. Kleines Becken allseits glatt serosiert und frei einsehbar.

What is serosiert ?

4. Das Ovar ist normal gross, mit frischeren und älteren Funktionszeichen

versehen.

I have 'The ovary is normal size with fresher and older signs of function'

but does that make sense?

Do I need to translate the word 'versehen'?

5. Darmkonvulut .......... unauffällig

Is this a misspelling of 'Darmkonvolut' ? Bowel convolution........normal?

6. Die rechte Tube wird elektrisch abgesetzt. Die Tube wird durch einen 10er

Trokar entfernt.

Is 'amputated' the right term for 'abgesetzt' here? I can't use removed because

of 'entfernt' in the second sentence

7. Jetzt Spülung des Bauchraumes I have 'abdominal space' for 'Bauchraum'.

is that ok?

8. Darstellen und Anhaken der Portio mit zwei Kugelzangen.

I have 'Presentation and fixing of the portio with two ball forceps.'

Is there a better way of expressing this?

9. Dilatation des CK von Hegar 4 bis 10.

What is 'CK' and 'Hegar'?

10. Einknopfnähte der Einstichstellen

I found 'self locking knot' via google search for 'Einknopfnähte' so I have

'Self locking knot of the puncture points'

Is that ok?

your comments appreciated

regards,

Hi Shane:

1. Insufflation von 3 l Co2-Gas is this 3 Litres?

--> yes

2. What is a " Taststab " I have 'touch rod' but that is my invention.

--> in my technical dictionary, I found:

'Taststift' (zum Abtasten) = stylus

3. Kleines Becken allseits glatt serosiert und frei einsehbar.

What is serosiert ?

--> not sure - perhaps:

" ueberzogen mit einer (glatten) Serosa " = covered by smooth serous membrane

?

4. Das Ovar ist normal gross, mit frischeren und älteren Funktionszeichen

versehen.

---> maybe like this:

'The ovary is of normal size and shoes fresh and old signs of function'

(don't know what exactly this refers to)

5. Bowel convolution........normal?

---> yes

6. Die rechte Tube wird elektrisch abgesetzt [= abgetrennt]. Die Tube

wird durch einen 10er Trokar entfernt.

Is 'amputated' the right term for 'abgesetzt' here?

---> yes, also: cut off, separated, ...

7. 'abdominal space' for 'Bauchraum'. is that ok?

--> abdominal cavity

8. I have 'Presentation and fixing of the portio with two ball forceps.'

Is there a better way of expressing this?

--> [chir.] exposure and fixation ...

9. Dilatation des CK von Hegar 4 bis 10.

---> Cervikalkanal = cercical canal

---> Hegar-Stifte = Hegar's (uterine) dilators

10. Einknopfnähte der Einstichstellen

---> it should read " Einzelknopfnaht " or " Einzelnaht " (vs. " fortlaufende

Naht " )

'self locking knot' --> makes sense, but I couldn' confirm it in Dorland's

under 'suture' or 'knot'. The correct translation is " interrupted suture "

(one in which each stitch is made with a separate piece of material).

HTH. Looks like a preparation for my next book translation :-)

Ursula

'puncture points' --> I would prefer 'puncture sites'

Hi Shane,

Just adding my late-night thoughts to Ursula's suggestions:

> 4. Das Ovar ist normal gross, mit frischeren und älteren Funktionszeichen

> versehen.

> ---> maybe like this:

> 'The ovary is of normal size and shoes fresh and old signs of function'

> (don't know what exactly this refers to)

....with (both) recent and less recent signs of function / signs of

functional activity. Function / functional activity meaning ova production.

Good luck/night!

Thanks very much for that, Ursula

Those suggestions make good sense. I will be translating the last short

document tomorrow night.

Shane

Thanks for that la

I had no idea what function was intended but ova production would make sense.

'recent and less recent' sounds very natural. I'll use that.
