a blood pressure level that is difficult to slow down/that subsides with difficulty Explanation: I think the main difficulty here is with the use of "décrocher", which seems unusual in this context, but can be guessed at. The way I understand it is close to this (possible) interpretation: https://qc.croixbleue.ca/assurance-sante/astuces-sante/561-c... Décrocher : à une époque où nous sommes continuellement branchés, il est important de décrocher de la technologie de temps à autre pour prendre une pause mentale. Éteignez votre téléphone et votre ordinateur et prenez le temps de vous détendre sans être interrompu. > to let go, slow down, fall back > (hence) weaken, subside, decline, drop (EN) CPAP, Continuous positive airway pressure [device] = (FR) PPC, [appareil à] pression positive continue (FR) TA, tension artérielle = (EN) BP, blood pressure > une tension artérielle qui peine à décrocher = a blood pressure level that is difficult to slow down/that subsides with difficulty si TA passe sous 13 arret de la CPAP > if blood pressure falls under 13, then the CPAP device will [automatically] stop. |
