Discussion

Bilingualduo Dec 30, 2004:
alvus (or alveus) is the latin translation for alvo. Since it is the name of a section maybe you could use bowel status or something along that line?
achisholm (asker) Dec 30, 2004:
thanks for the answers but would "bowel movement/motion" be used more routinely on a UK/US clinical record?

alvus

this is the latin tech word. The alvo, if I remember correctly, is the whole intestinal canal.
