Hospital discharge letter from the Dominican Republic
This expression comes in the history delivered to the examining doctor in the emergency department by a patient with gastroenteritis. The context is "evacuaciones diarréicas ..en numerosas ocasiones,...con fiebre alta no termometrada SIN PREDOMINIO DE HORARIOS, y dolor abdominal tipo cólico... " I have found three hits on Google for the problem phrase but am still not clear about the translation into English. Thanks in advance for any help. (Perhaps it is a Latin American expression?)

With no particular (time) pattern
I would normally say "with no particular pattern", but since there is some type of cluster of symptoms (temp, pain etc) maybe "time" is needed.
Note from asker:
| Thank you Jane for your input. |

...high fever...
That is what I understand it to be. There was no pattern for the fever.

: I think you need to include the idea of time, so perhaps "at random intervals".
