ICC (insuficiencia cardiaca congestiva)

Spanish medical acronyms (like French ones) are all totally different from the English; German acronyms tend to be more similar. It makes medical translation exciting though.

Spanish: ICC = insuficiencia cardiaca congestiva = congestive heart failure (more or less)

Anyway, I got this one from the Spanish/English glossary [pdf] of the California Department of Social Services. Thanks, California!
