Medical and Clinical Trial Translations
Medical translations, and clinical trial translations in particular are a very specific kind of specialised translations. To perform them correctly you ought not only to be a fluent language speaker and a skillful translator, but also possess medical knowledge and be familiar with the clinical trial industry and its standards. Performance of such translations is a very responsible job that many translators won’t undertake and, in all fairness, not every translator should.
It happens unfortunately that very costly, multimillion clinical trials must be ended if errors threatening the safety of patients are found in the document translations. Incorrectly translated test results, signs, symptoms, names or even drug doses and doctor’s recommendations may have a fatal influence on the diagnosis, treatment, and thus the human life.
Quality standards for medical and clinical trial translations should therefore be exceptionally high. We have worked for this industry for over 7 years. We translate for CROs and leading pharmaceutical companies, we also cater for individual clients. We co-operate with medical doctors, pharmacists, other medical personnel and Clinical Research Associates (Monitors) (CRAs).
We translate among other things:
- Hospital discharge letters
- diagnoses / medical certificates
- drug leaflets
- medical history
- test results
- Clinical Trial Agreements
- Informed Consent Forms (ICFs)
- Case Report Forms (CRFs)
- Clinical Trial Protocols / Investigator Brochures
