Discussion

lhcm Nov 16, 2012:
The question asked by the asker It is not a question of translation, but a medical question about what a technical term means on a medical report. Medical training is a must to understand such technical term, at least, you have to have seen what Aortic Cusp is, in an anatomy lab.
lhcm Nov 16, 2012:
the following discussion is started after grading the technical term in question is about the "Distance between leaflets during systole, measure early as possible in systole", it has nothing to do with separating the cusps.

فصل شرفات الصمام الأبهر عن بعضها

فصل شرفات الصمام الأبهر عن بعضها
يؤدي الصمام الأبهري المتضيق بسبب التصاق الشرفات ببعضها إلى نقص جريان الدم الفعال من البطين الأيسر إلى الأبهر. لذلك يعمل الجراح إلى فصل الشرفات أو الشرفتين عن بعضها لضمان الجريان الفعال للدم

Dear Sara,

With due respect, I am afraid you have selected the wrong answer to your question.
You asked "aortic cusp separation". In other words you asked how the aortic cusps are separated. I explained the problem. The cusps get stuck together, preventing the effective blood flow. The surgeon would separate the cusps allowing the blood to flow effectively. That was my answer.
The other answer that you selected says "The distance between cusps of the aortic valve". This is not an answer to your question.
This answer would have been correct if you had asked "What's the distance between the cusps during the heart contraction ".
I don't mind if you give the points to the other peer. But, I am concerned about getting the technical term right.
Kind regards,
Sami

Dear IHCM,

You argue that the question is about the distance between the aortic cusps. Which you based your answer on.
I am looking at the question above. It says nothing about the distance between the cusps. it says, and I am copying and pasting the question, "aortic cusp separation". Which means the aortic cusps are not separated, i.e. they are stuck together preventing the effective blood flow. I am afraid you have answered to different question. About understanding the function of the heart and the aortic cusps, let me tell you that I have translated a whole document about the subject and I have at my disposal references in Arabic and English about the subject. As I said before, I am not after the points. But, I am concerned about the accuracy of the technical term. Maybe we can resort to a moderator to set things right.
Kind regards,
Sami
