Medical - Medical (general) / Nursing
Spanish term or phrase: VVP salinizada
The following occur in different areas of a nursing report:

Porta 3 VVP salinizadas.

Porta VVP salinizada.

Porta VC salinizada.

Porta VVC salinizada.

VVC salinizada, se realiza cura de vía.

Presumably this would refer to "saline flush" or "saline lock" etc, but am not sure of the exact translation.
Possibly "peripheral venous catheter with saline lock"? etc.

Can anyone help?

Cheers,
John

Notes to answerer
Asker: Hi Liz. Yes, I think you're right that it's referring to the action of flushing the line/catheter. I think I was confusing myself on this one. Cheers, John.
