exageration

French to English Medical Medical (general) -
Dobutamine

Le traitement de l'insuffisance cardiaque et la reduction du diametre du coeur diminuent la consommation d'oxygene. Cependant on ne peut pas ecarter totalement le risque d'augmentation de la consommation d'oxygene et de la taille de l'infractus par exageration de l'ischemie liee a l'augmentation d'un agent inotrope.

Merci

All these pathological events may aggravate the ischemia and hypoxia of injured tissue and worsen the patient's condition...
