Phase pulse infection

From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference

A phase pulse infection is a potentially fatal infection of the body, as a result of being shot with a phased energy weapon. Phase pulse infections are particularly dangerous to Andorians.

In 2154, Lieutenant Talas died of a phase pulse infection aboard the Earth vessel Enterprise after being shot at point-blank range by a Tellarite using a Starfleet phase rifle. (ENT: "United")
