What Makes Translating a Medical Document More Difficult Than Translating Any Other Document?

Can you paraphrase the following sentence?

"The test suggests that the additional cannula from the visceral pleura resulted in pulmonary function improvements in the approximate range of 500% from forced expiratory volumes in one-second (FEV1) measurements."

If you didn't have a background in medicine, you probably couldn't. Well, translation is, fundamentally, paraphrasing. Would you entrust your FDA documentation or Adverse Events Reports to a translator without an M.D.?

At RIC International, we hold to the principle:

If You Don't Understand It, You Cannot Translate It!

That is why RIC International requires that all Medical Translators and Translation Editors have to have education, training, and work experience in the areas of medicine matching the subject matter they translate. Our meticulous Quality Control system is the most thorough in the industry, with a system of checks and balances in place throughout the entire process – from the selection of project managers to the final proofreading of the translated document.

Pharmaceutical companies, clinical research organizations (CROs), manufacturers of medical and surgical devices, biotech companies, and health care managers have come to rely on RIC International for translation of their most sensitive documents. Our unique methodology that clients depend on delivers consistently clear, accurate translation of high-value information.

Regulatory Compliance and Certification of Translation Accuracy

Medical translation requires precision and up-to-date technical knowledge by every member of your translation team. It also requires multiple levels of quality control and a full understanding of stringent regulatory laws, especially the US, the European Union, and Japan.

Whether translating patient case report forms for FDA submission or packaging for in-vitro devices to comply with the EU's IVDD directive, there can be no compromise where the spheres of language and healthcare regulation converge. That is why our translations are translated and Certified for Translation Accuracy by Medical Professionals.
