Portuguese term or phrase: pré-condicionamento mecânico
a phrase in a summary on inhalatory anesthetics.
The main context reads:
". Outro estudo mostrou que a lesão da isquemia e reperfusão renal pode ser atenuada em ratos submetidos a associação do isoflurano e do remifentanil e ao pré-condicionamento mecânico."
...the mechanics of preconditioning does not sound good to me, can anyone give me another alternative for 'mecanico', ...mechanism perhaps? or just plain 'the effects of preconditioning"???
