disagree  PLR TRADUZIO (X): Le CLIA a "waived", mais le test n'est pas "waived" du CLIA qui n'a aucun sense puisqu'il s'agit d'un organisme

agree  Tony M: Actually, on reflection, I think this does convey pretty much the same idea as I was seeking to, though I'm a little worried about the use of 'exempté'.

disagree  Tony M: Again, I think this distorts the meaning: I don't believe it means the test isn't required (quite the contrary, in fact!) but rather that it is exempted from the provisions of this CLIA; 'waived' is not a very helpful s/t lexical choice.

  -> Tony, je pense que "waive" a ici le même sense que celui de "waiver" utilisé par l'EMA: on parle toujours de "regulatory" non ?

this test is waived under the clinical laboratory improvement ...
le CLIA ... a accordé une dispense pour ce test


Explanation:
This is in essence the same as the suggestion made by 'Shooting' on that ealrier 2006 question (even though it is not the answer that was chosen on that occasion). But I feel convinced this more accurately conveys the sense of the source text.

As I understand it, the provisions of this CLIA are intended to toughen up laboratory test methods; but some tests "are so simple and accurate as to render the likelihood of erroneous results negligible; or pose no reasonable risk of harm to the patient if the test is performed incorrectly." — what we have here is one of the latter category of tests, which is why it is exempted from the provisions of the CLIA.

One might say that the use of the term 'waived' is a bit misleading in this sort of context, and that 'exempted' might have been easier to understand; but I can see that they were in essence saying that "the provisions of the CLIA have been waived for this test".

I suspect it would be better to reformulate in FR, possibly something along the lines of: « Il s'agit d'un test sous dispense du CLIA. »

disagree  Tony M: In fact, it means that the CLIA does not apply to this test, so this is really the wrong way round altogether.
