German term or phrase: Hyperammoniämie; perfundiert; infundiert
I am carrying out a medical translation about insuffiency of the liver and I have come across the following words in German that I would like assistance with in translating to English.
Firstly there is the word "Hyperammoniämie" that I have not been able to find a suitable translation of. Secondly there are the words "perfundiert" and "infundiert". Furthermore, I wonder if "Eilezithin" can be translated as - egg lecithin.
Would be very grateful for all responses.

3. infusion[L.infundere, to pour into]

Now to your egg yolk lecithin:
lecithin [Gr. lekithos, egg yolk] A fatty substance of the group called phospholipids, found in blood, bile, brain, egg yolk, nerves, and other animal tissues, and yielding stearic acid, glycerol, phosphoric acid, and choline on hydrolysis.
Thus, I would leave lecithin and put
egg yolk in parantheses.
Good luck,
Lis
