Medical content where a mistranslation is a patient-safety risk.
In your healthcare content a mistranslation is not an inconvenience, it is a patient-safety and regulatory risk. We run the operation that keeps your clinical and regulatory content exact, terminology controlled, and accountable across every market you supply.
EU rules can oblige your content in up to 24 languages.
EU medical device and IVD rules oblige instructions for use and labelling in the official language of every member state where a product is made available, which can mean up to 24 languages, regenerating with every product revision and regulatory update.
Managed as isolated projects, the cost is roughly linear and terminology drifts. Managed as a programme with maintained memory and a controlled termbase, cost falls with each revision because unchanged content is already approved and reusable.
Healthcare and Medical content, handled by people who understand what's at stake.
- Instructions for use and labelling
- Rendered exactly against approved terminology, with the audit trail regulated markets require, and a change process that propagates a revision into every language version.
- Clinical and regulatory documentation
- Handled by linguists with demonstrable medical competence, reviewed by a second qualified pair of eyes.
- Medical device content
- Software, interfaces and supporting material aligned to the same terminology as the regulated documentation.
- Patient-facing material
- Clear, accurate content adapted for comprehension in each market, not just literal accuracy.
- Terminology and audit trail
- One controlled termbase per product family, with a retained record of who translated, who reviewed, and against which approved terms.
The right workflow for every type of content.
High-volume content moves on technology-led workflows with automated terminology, length and quality checks, and human review where the system flags risk.
High-stakes content goes to in-market specialists with subject expertise, working from an informed brief and approved terminology. In healthcare and medical, the second lane carries more than most sectors.

- Does EU MDR require translation into all member-state languages?
- Member states set their own requirements, and most require their own official language, so selling across the union can oblige documentation in up to 24 languages. We help you map the obligation to the markets you sell into. This is not legal advice; confirm your specific requirements with your regulatory function.
- Do your linguists have medical expertise?
- Yes. Clinical and regulatory content is handled by linguists with demonstrable medical competence and reviewed by a second qualified reviewer.
- How do you handle product revisions across languages?
- A change process propagates each revision into every language version rather than the ones somebody remembered, with maintained memory so unchanged content is already approved and reusable.
- Do you keep an audit trail?
- Yes. A retained audit trail records who translated, who reviewed, and against which approved terminology, which is what regulated markets require.
