Medical - Medical: Cardiology / Monitors
English term or phrase: decay
Can you help with the term decay as in following context (2 instances). Je pense qu'il s'agit plutôt d'un concept statistique ou mathématique que biologique ou médical mais je peux me tromper.

Many thanks in anticipation, merci d'avance!
