Swedish term

Patient med kostbeh DM, Waranbehandlat FF...

Swedish to English Medical Medical: Cardiology
Patients on diet DM, Coumadin treated FF???

My question here are these abbreviations DM and FF

Proposed translations

Selected

Patient with diet-treated diabetes, Coumadin-treated atrial fibrillation

DM = diabetes mellitus
FF = förmaksflimmer = atrial fibrillation (could also be abbreviated as AF)

Not strictly logical, as you actually don't TREAT the fibrillation with but use it profylactic to patients with AF.
Peer comment(s):

agree SJLD : diet-controlled DM, on coumadin for AF

agree Tania McConaghy : Coumadin is a brand name (as is Waran), for clarity I suggest using "warfarin"
