pain intensity visual scale Explanation: According to the text, patients are requested to mark a VAS for the evaluation of pain intensity. That's pretty clear, so I think you should go for: "pain intensity visual scale" or "escala visual de la intensidad del dolor" to fit your translation. PS: the source term is not in Spanish :o) |
