Italian term

rima labiale

Italian to English Medical Medical (general) stroke-like patient
This is from the report for a patient with stroke-like symptoms.

"La paziente al risveglio (verso le 9 del mattino) veniva ritrovata meno reattiva del solito con deviazione della rima labiale, disartria e difficoltà alla marcia, motivo per cui si contatta l'ambulanza"

I guess it means the position on the lips/mouth showed signs of changes, but is there a standard phrase for this?

espressioni latine (precisisime in anatomia) - rima orale : cavum oris
- angle of the mouth : angulus oris. IMO if we say drooping lip we are talking about this part of the mouth

The text definitely says labiale But I agree that we're probably talking about the same thing in practice. Is there a subtle difference in terminology?
