Trudy Peters Aug 12, 2006:
Sorry, Aoife. You should have mentioned that you already checked the gloss.
Aoife Kennedy (asker) Aug 12, 2006:
Juliebarba, why don't you enter your suggestion as an answer, so I can give you the points? So far yours is he only suggestion that has rung true.
Aoife Kennedy (asker) Aug 12, 2006:
Response to Trudy Peters: I know there are already entries for the same term. I checked and didn't find any that matched my context or helped me in any way. How are you helping me by pointing out something I already know (the fact of other entires existing), without looking at the particular context we're dealing with here?
Julie Barber Aug 12, 2006:
my understanding is that it's just a 'section' of a whole document
Trudy Peters Aug 12, 2006:
Please check the glossary. There are 32 entries already.

(I suggest that you don't use 'flap' from the link above ha ha..)

As I've already said, I'd have thought that it's simply a section of the document / dossier
ie - Volet A, Volet B, Volet C .....etc

Please don't close the question for 24 hours; this gives others a chance to respond to my answer and therefore helps you out.

ps: in this actual context - I don't think that you have to consider medicine (unless you want to give it a specific name that you find in medical applications, if there is one) - the context to me, is simply a whole document / application in itself with this being part of it....

Exclusiveness

This is about the selection process relating to medicine and bedside instructions required for carrying out the experiment.
Peer comment(s):

neutral writeaway : again 100% confidence, very doubtful translation and no refs to show where you got exclusiveness as the translation for 'volet''. you can read or see a volet.

neutral Julie Barber : but where does exclusiveness come into it ?
