| mixed discrete-continuous random variable | <statistics> A random variable that may assume some values with probabilities and others with probability densities. For example, in a 35-year-old man with familial polyposis of the colon, the distribution of time until malignant disease occurs consists of a probability that he already has cancer (which would be assigned the waiting time 0), a probability density of developing it in the future and a probability that he will die of some other cause before he develops cancer. (05 Mar 2000) |
| motion therapy, continuous passive | Movement of a body part initiated and maintained by a mechanical or electrical device to restore normal range of motion to joints, muscles, or tendons after surgery, prosthesis implantation, contracture flexion, or long immobilization. (12 Dec 1998) |

| continuous murmur |
a humming cardiac murmur extending throughout systole into late diastole or to the end of diastole; it is due to conditions characterized by connections between the aorta and the pulmonary artery or its branches (such as patent ductus arteriosus), by arteriovenous fistulas, or by altered blood flow in arteries or veins. Cf. systolic m. and diastolic m.
