English term or phrase: medical stat
It's a term that means an immediate necessity for action in a medical section. Should I just say "stat"? I also thought of "orden inmediato" as a possibility

Spanish translation:urgente/inmediato en ámbito médico
Explanation:
La expresión original es extraña. El contexto específico resulta imprescindible para entender el original.
Stat, efectivamente, es utilizado en ámbito médico en tanto que statim; inmediatamente, urgentemente.

Stat, used as a directive to medical personnel during in an emergency situation, is from the Latin word statim, which means “instantly” or “immediately.”

Resulta difícil así imaginar un contexto en el que podamos referirnos a medical stat; obviamente no es ésta la forma adecuada de expresar la idea de una urgencia médica o una atención médica inmediata en inglés.

Por ejemplo, sin embargo,
MEDICAL STAT STICKERS AND LABELS

Aquí, el sentido de "medical stat" es el de "stat" (urgente, inmediato) utilizado en ámbito médico;
Urgentemente/inmediatamente en ámbito médico / en medicina. Pegatinas y cartelería.

Así, como dicho al inicio, el contexto específico resulta imprescindible en este caso.

Reference: urgencia médica

Reference information:
It depends on the sense of the phrase: without context I‘d say ‘urgencia médica’
Note: This is an abbreviation of the Latin "statim", meaning immediately - https://www.wordreference.com/es/translation.asp?tranword=st...
