Hi, all.

I am doing some training in medical translation and for my dismay I could not use the key resources for clinical trials as I only got the EN version, therefore of no avail to me as I was trying to translate into Portuguese...

Do you know how we can use Medra, EDQM and www.clinicaltrialsregister.eu in other languages?

Thank you all for your time... See more

Hi Florbela,

For MedDRA terms, you go to https://spor.ema.europa.eu/rmswi/#/search (no account required) and search for a term in English.

Hi Florbela,

For MedDRA terms, you go to https://spor.ema.europa.eu/rmswi/#/search (no account required) and search for a term in English. If you then click on the relevant term in the hit list, a window is opened where you find a drop-down menu with all available translations of that term (generally including Portuguese) behind "Term Name". If you want to search for terms in another language, you select the tab "Advanced search".

For EDQM terms, you have to register at https://standardterms.edqm.eu, after which you can select Search > Search all concepts by name (or another option), and enter a term in the search field. You may choose the language of the term you want to search, or keep the default "ALL". Then click on the relevant term in the hit list, select the tab "Translations" and you will see all available translations.

www.clinicaltrialsregister.eu is only available in English and can be used for background information about clinical trials, which may be useful to understand the setup of a trial. Portugal may also have a national register of clinical trials in Portuguese, I don't know whether this is the case but this should be easy to find.

I hope this helps. Success!

Ti titia,

Do you happen to know if anything has changed at the search site for MedDRA terms?
I have been able to search on the site under your link in the past, but now all I get is a message informing me that "You don't have permission to perform this action".

Great help, Titia! Thank you so much! Feb 22, 2019

Hi, Titia!

Thank you for your generous and clear explanation. It's wonderful to be able to count on fellow translators

In case any Portuguese medical translators watch this post I leave here the link to our national register of clinical trials: https://www.rnec.pt/pt_PT/pesquisa-de-estudos-clinicos

Have a lovely weekend

Hi Marjolein,

The website works ok here. Could this be some warning / blockage from your virus scanner or other security system?

Best regards,
Titia
