Medical - Medical (general) / after effects | | Spanish term or phrase: s/t con los cambios temporales | Beginning a paragraph in a clinical report describing the after effects of neck surgery:
s/Ocasionalmente cefalea leve y s/t con los cambios temporales.
anybody know what the s/t is?
the s/ at the beginning of the sentence would be an added bonus.
TIA, MJ |

Or "with changes in (the) weather", or whatever you prefer.
s/t is "sobre todo" (I believe).
Hi MJ.
I'm a sucker for an abbreviation, but this one had me foxed. The thing is that you find it, when you look, in a lot of different medical contexts. This, added to the fact that it's lower case with a slash, rather than "ST", suggests that it doesn't stand for any specific condition, but for some common phrase. Here are a few examples that had me racking my brains:
"Mayor frecuencia de infección focal tras candidemia, s/t meningitis."
"Ecografía abdominal, s/t vía urinaria"
http://www.elcomprimido.com/FARHSD/CursoAntimicrobianos2010/...
"Bacteriodes fragilis: produce s/t infecc infradiafragm pero tb otitis media crónica."
"No pigmentados: dan s/t infecc genitales"
"Cuadros clínicos (s/t Infecciones asociadas)"
http://lnx.futuremedicos.com/Formacion_pregrado/Apuntes/Arch...
etc., etc.
Then I found this, which solves it (I think). There's a flow chart labelled "Algoritmo diagnóstico", in which one of the boxes says:
"Sosp. inf grave (SIRS, sepsis) sin foco en pac grave s/t si SP colest/icteri".
Underneath (hooray!) there is a key:
"Claves: HCD (Hipocondrio Derecho), Fb (Fiebre), L ↑ (leucocitosis), VPP (Valor Predictivo Positivo), c-v (cardiovasculares), frc (frecuente), i-lum (intraluminal), SIRS (Síndrome de Respuesta Inflamatoria Sistémica), s/t (sobre todo), BAL (Bajo Anestesia Local), LPSC (Laparoscopia), PA (Pancreatitis Aguda), RX (radiografía), ECO (Ecografía), mod (moderado)."

On "s/" I think Ron's almost certainly right: "síntomas".
