Medical - Business/Commerce (general)
Spanish term or phrase: CONCEPTO
Document from Colombia detailing the decisions of a task force within the review board of a national drug surveillance agency (INVIMA):

CONCEPTO: Revisada la documentacion allegada, la Sala Especializada de Medicamentos y Productos Biologicos de la Comision Revisora recomienda aceptar el protocolo de la referencia con los documentos relacionados.

Could this be translated as "RULING" or 'DECISION," or is it more legal, such as "IN THIS MATTER"? Thank you for your help.

OPINION/RECOMMENDATION
Explanation:
This medical team/task force analises different topics related with medicine use and after each topic being analised they issue their opinion/recommendation to the Reviser Commision (they work under Reviser Comission). An example that they issue Opinions/recommendations as experts can be seen in the following:

"CONCEPTO: Revisada la documentación allegada, la Sala Especializada de
Medicamentos y Productos Biológicos de la Comisión Revisora considera que los estudios presentados son escasos y a corto plazo y por lo tanto,
teniendo en cuenta lo crónico de la patología a tratar, debe presentar
estudios clínicos publicados realizados a mas largo plazo que permitan
determinar mejor la eficacia (respuesta y mantenimiento de la respuesta) y
seguridad (cataratas, toxicidad hepática y toxicidad renal y mielofibrosis) del
producto"

neutral  María Eugenia Wachtendorff: Comprendo que lo entiendas así, pero en un documento, el "concepto" es el tema o materia del que trata su contenido.

  -> Maria E: Citas la definición general de concepto, pero en este contexto no aplica. Si lees bien el pasaje, no está definiendo nada. Está describiendo una decisión o recomencación. En Colombia, es frecuente hablar del "concepto" de una corte o una entidad.
