22 mins confidence: 
outward from the center Explanation: "fuera de centro" refers to a machining operation where the cutting device moves 'outward from the center" I think the term works here too. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2007-03-14 20:28:19 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- It has been pointed out to me that my translation doesn't fit, which after looking closer at the context I agree , (I assumed the inspection was outward from the center 'for' white stains), reading more carefully I realize this term is actually another fault to look for during the inspection. I would modify my translation to being "off center" or ""misaligned" |

[inspect the catheter cap]from the centre outwards for white stains and contamination Explanation: This is how I interpret it. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 15 hrs (2007-03-15 10:47:20 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- That should read Inspect the catheter cap assemblies from the centre outwards for white marks/stains and contamination. They wouldn't want it to become blocked/dirty I assume. |
