Manufacturers of medical and in vitro diagnostic devices operate in an environment subject to strict national regulations. These manufacturers must comply with regulations in the target country in order to market their devices internationally. This requires an excellent understanding of the relevant regulations, content and terminology in the native language of the target country.

Producers in the European Union must obtain the CE certified conformity label before placing their products on the market. This certification also demonstrates that they meet the requirements of related directives, such as the Medical Devices Directive (MDD, Directive 93/42/EEC), the Active Implantable Medical Devices Directive (AIMDD, Directive 90/385/EEC), the In Vitro Diagnostic Directive (IVDD, and Directive 98/79/EEC). There are similar requirements in other countries.

The management of regulatory compliance is one of the most critical issues for medical device businesses. Even a minor mistake may delay regulatory approval and the product’s launch on the market. Inaccuracies in translations of medical device documents can delay a product, cause its recall and lead to liability lawsuits. All these vital issues mean that medical device manufacturers need to work with the right translation offices.

Language and translation services are playing an increasingly larger role in clinical trials. The number of international clinical studies is rising day by day, and the translation of clinical trial texts is becoming an indispensable component of many research projects.
