German term

Patientenrelevanz

German to English Medical Medical: Health Care
This is about a drug and its potential for "Schmerzreduktion"

"Begründung der Patientenrelevanz"
Schmerz ist häufig das erste klinische Symptom von Metastasen Schmerzen sind patientenrelevant, da sie Einfluss auf das Wohlbefinden des Patienten nehmen.

Is there an established short phrase for "Patientenrelevanz"? I don't find any google hits for "patient relevance"...
Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Lancashireman

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Both of the sites I mentioned have English versions via the same address; you just need to click and you will find the terms.
neutral Cilian O'Tuama : The "English versions" of very many websites are very poor.

Peer comment(s):

agree Ramey Rieger (X) : Yes, most definitely. Althouh the text is bizarre in the extreme. Pain is relevant for patients? Double duh!

Thanks Ramey, bizarre it is indeed.
agree Lancashireman : Since patient may be a noun or an adjective (with a completely different meaning), this formulation with preposition and plural is disambiguated and therefore preferable.
