sustained
Even if the other suggestions are suitable for "protrahiert", I would use sustained in this very context. See one of numerous examples:

(find: sustained heart failure)

@lirka, I can only give you another German word for that:
*anhaltend*, something like --> persistierend / persisting
This has also - between the lines - the meaning of: "not responsive to therapy".
I know the word sustained from this use: sustained arrhythmias (vs. non-sustained arrhythmias)

sorry: *persistent* (not persisting) is the correct word.

Note from asker:
| Thanks for your input. What I am trying to understand it also what it means. What is a 'sustained' heart failure? In the sense of 'chronic' or 'long-standing and compensated'? |
