português term

Nocao em barra

português para inglês Medicina Medicina (geral)
Hi , this appears in a hospital discharge report, when describing the patient's present illness: "dor abdominal generalizada associada a fevre. Nocao em barra, na regiao do epigastrio".
My research on this has not returned anything plausible in this context, grateful for some help.

Many Thanks

The most common symptom of pancreatitis is sudden, severe upper abdominal pain that radiates to the back in a band-like pattern. It can also lead to nausea ...

Thanks Liz, was really baffled by the term "nocao" but there is no ambiguity now around the meaning, most helpful.

Boring upper abdominal pain

"Dor em barra" describes the pain associated with pancreatitis. I believe the expression refers to the quality of the patient´s pain (the "notion" that he has of it).
I don´t know if an equivalent term exists in English - the expression suggested came from the Professional MSD Manual.
Note from asker:
Thank you Fernando, I was baffled by the term "nocao", might refer like you say to the patient's perception of the pain.
Peer comment(s):

neutral philgoddard : I think your explanation of noção is probably right.
