English to Serbian Medical Medical: Pharmaceuticals
Dopuble dummy clinical trial

double-dummy

Postoji više prevoda ovog termina koji su uglavnom improvizacija i od kojih meni najprihvatljivije deluje "naizmenično maskirano/slepo ispitivanje". U ovom slučaju, mislim da je u prethodnom odgovoru napravljena mala greška koja može dovesti do zabune, jer se ne radi o dvostrukom placebu. Naime, pacijenti ne primaju dva placeba, već ispitivani lek i placebo.

Mi koristimo izvorni termin i to je praksa koja je prihvaćena i u Agenciji za lekove i medicinska sredstva Srbije, tako da je "double-dummy" sasvim legitimno upotrebiti. U prilogu šaljem link "Zahtev za odobrenje kliničkog ispitivanja" u kom se vidi da u Agenciji, ne samo da prepoznaju ovaj termin, već se ne libe da ga koriste u ćiriličnoj verziji :) Šalu na stranu, radi se o problemu s pisanjem stranih termina koji ima čitava administracija od kada je latinično pismo "strogo zabranjeno"...
