Medical - Medical: Cardiology / (oreillette gauche) FR
French term or phrase: (oreillette gauche) FR
In a CARDIAC ECHO DOPPLER REPORT, for the left ventricle, this is one of the values, it lists:

SIVDiast: x mm [range 9-13]
PPDiast: x mm [range 9-12]
FR: 41%
FEVG: 71%

What would the "FR" stand for? I dont think it's fraction because we have "FE" for ejection fraction in the last value there (left ventricle). Then again it could be an inconsistency...? Both values list %
