It's unclear! Thank you all again. I can't be sure what this means, and it really doesn't make a big difference for the reader of the translation. (What I mean is that this is not an item that adds important information regarding the patient's symptoms and the possible relation of the hospitalization to the study drug.)

Another possibility that occurred to me is "complicanze mediche" but when I look online, I don't find any sentences that include CM with these words. Since it's in the same sentence as the anamnesi and eventi avversi, I just don't think it can mean clinical modifications or componenti monoclonali.

@Marco Thanks again for your help, Marco. If you like you can post your suggestion as an answer and then we can enter it into the KudoZ glossary.

Best wishes.

Joseph Tein (asker) Apr 9, 2020:

Thanks again ... to all of you for your suggestions. In my context, I think "condizioni mediche" fits best. The patient had chest pain and fever, so (as far as I understand these things) there's no need to go into monoclonal components.

We can add CM = componenti monoclonali to Acromed, however. I think that would be useful.

My doubt about "medical conditions" is: why in capital letters? I have never seen it reported in this way or at least as an acronym.
But anything is possible .........

Luigi Argentino Apr 9, 2020:

just to further confuse the idea CM= Clinical Modification according the ICD

LA CLASSIFICAZIONE ICD-9-CM
(International Classification of Diseases ^ 9th revision ^ Clinical Modification)

I hope you are all well and safe

Agree with Marco "Condizioni mediche" sounds the most plausible to me. The position of the term and the context suggest the more general "clinical status" (condizioni mediche), although there's no way to be sure, it could be a review of test results.

Joseph Tein (asker) Apr 8, 2020:

sorry ... ho sbagliato :( That "a" was meant to be an "e"!

valutazione delle *CM* E degli eventi avversi.

Apologies. Thank you, Claire for your attention to this

Claire Knell Apr 8, 2020:

I think "causalita" is unlikey in hindsight... due to "delle" not "della".

Is the "a" after it, as it is in the source, Joseph?

Joseph Tein (asker) Apr 8, 2020:

"Condizioni mediche" seems to make the most sense so far, given what the rest of the sentence says. Thank you Marco and Claire.

Claire Knell Apr 8, 2020:

Something to do with... causality - causality of the adverse events? Were the AEs caused by the study drug? Just a guess though and can't find anything to back it up.

Interesting question!

Marco Solinas Apr 8, 2020:

To Asker Just to take a stab at it: "condizioni mediche"?
