Medical - Medical: Cardiology / pacemaker, OptiVol
English term or phrase: precipitants
"Characterization of the *precipitants* of hospitalization for heart failure decompensation

Identifying and managing those patients at risk for clinical decompensation and the resulting hospitalization is a challenge for clinicians. Typical data points such as body weight are not always very accurate. Thoracic impedance and OptiVol can be a useful tool."

Kann jemand kurz bestätigen, dass es sich bei "precipitants" um "begünstigende Faktoren" handelt? Ich finde keine entsprechende Definition. Danke im Voraus!
