helping out with... Explanation: Taking into account the probable term omission in the medical jargon and the Guinean French use, I would dare to suggest that the probable meaning is 'symetrical abdomen' helping (the patient) in the effort needed to breathe (normally)... Example sentence(s):

1 hr confidence: peer agreement (net): +4
peer agreement (net): +4moving with Explanation: A Google search will reveal many instances of "The abdomen moves with respiration / breathing". This is normal. Absence of movement can reveal pain, discomfort, stress, and a range of abdominal conditions (peptic ulcers, gastrointestinal perforation, etc.). This expression is often accompanied by comments about the symmetry of the abdomen. Presumably quite simply because if it is symmetrical, things are better rather than worse. Abdominal inspection involves: "First, the general contour of the entire abdominal wall is observed. The contour should be checked carefully for distention and note made as to whether any distention is generalized or localized to a portion of the abdomen. Similarly, the flanks should be checked for any bulging." I don't think the observation is connected to malaria, any more than is the observation about the patient's tongue and teeth and the absence of abdominal scars. However, advanced malaria can cause abdominal complications, so the comment souple et sensible might have some bearing. Nor do I think participant à la respiration refers to abdominal breathing per se. Participant suggests a lower, secondary degree of respiratory involvement, maybe none at all, just an induced movement. As an asthmatic child I was a paradoxical-cum-thoracic breather and had sessions with a respiratory physiotherapist to learn belly breathing, so I know a little bit about such things. That said, though I've been attempting to join the dots, this is really little more than a guess. |
