French term

(oreillette gauche) FR

French to English Medical Medical: Cardiology (oreillette gauche) FR
In a CARDIAC ECHO DOPPLER REPORT, for the left ventricle, this is one of the values, it lists:

SIVDiast: x mm [range 9-13]
PPDiast: x mm [range 9-12]
FR: 41%
FEVG: 71%

What would the "FR" stand for? I dont think it's fraction because we have "FE" for ejection fraction in the last value there (left ventricle). Then again it could be an inconsistency...? Both values list %
Proposed translations (English)
4 +3 regurgitant fraction

p.s. i should have just "left ventricle" in the title instead, but i was/am pressed for time - sorry about that!!
Catherine Pawlick (asker) Aug 22, 2014:
Yes it is. I didnt post the entire table as I dont have time. The table includes both left ventricle and left atrium, and it's poorly delineated (left atrium on one side, left ventricle on the other)
Gabrielle Leyden Aug 22, 2014:
left ventricle I'm puzzled about your mention of oreillette gauche and left ventricle. The ejection fraction is clearly that of the left ventricle (VG), but isn't "oreillette gauche" the left atrium/auricle?
