Medical Translation

Medical translation is a translation service which can literally save lives. Research published in 2003 by the medical journal "Pediatrics", which analysed the audio transcripts of 13 visits of Spanish-speaking patients to an American paediatrics clinic, found out that official interpreters made 231 errors, 53 percent of them were judged to have the potential to cause health problems.

Amongst the medical translation errors was a parent being told to put steroid cream on a child's entire body instead of just the face and someone being asked to administrate an oral antibiotic in the infant's ears instead of the mouth.
