This is pre-printed form from a cardiology department. Under: "evènements à retenir, I could make most of the abbreviations but not all.
FA, TSV, FV, EES, CPBIA, VNI - These are OK
PFC, CG, HF - unsure of those.
reprise hémorragie, ventilé, antibio, etc.. these are OK

Please do not offer "Plasma frais congelé" as a suggestion here.
