Health Outcomes Group are experts at translating questionnaires for multinational clinical trials.
From the beginning, Health Outcomes Group has understood the necessity of having a global outlook on problems and their solutions.
We have worked in many therapeutic areas on every continent of the world and in more than 80 major languages.
However, global experience is more than knowing how to translate from one language to another language. Health Outcomes Group
begins by understanding your problems and issues as if we are a part of your organization. By working closely together with you, your local subsidiaries and your customers,
we make sure that our activities are coordinated to achieve your desired results. All of our staff and associates around the world are sensitive to different cultures built
upon centuries of history.
Our Translation Process
First, two translation teams working independently produce two translations of the English source documents in each target language.
Next an editor combines the two forward translations into a single consensus translation in the target language. Another team, independent of those conducting the forward
translations performs a back translation from the target language into the source language.
Quality Standards and Certification
Health Outcomes Group maintains rigorous professional standards that all our translators must meet. Translators are supervised
and quality assurance is maintained in accordance with the ISO 9002 standard. Each translation undergoes multiple stages of verification of which human skills are an indispensible
component. Certification of a translation by Health Outcomes Group is security that a standard of quality has been maintained throughout the entire process of translation and
linguistic validation that will meet the standards of the FDA, EC and other regulatory agencies.
