ENGLISH-SPANISH DICTIONARY OF COVID-19 ESSENTIAL MEDICAL DEVICES

 

Last month the European Commission published a list of general medical devices (MD) and in vitro medical devices (IVD) that it considers essential in the context of the covid-19 pandemic. It has included different types of medical devices, for example, items of personal protective equipment, medical devices and appliances, diagnostic tests and other medical supplies for the management of COVID-19 patients, with a particular focus on products for the respiratory system.

 

The list presents the medical devices with their common name and corresponding term from the European Medical Device Nomenclature (EMDN).

 

For the full list of essential COVID-19 devices, click here.

 

 

This list has only been published in English, so I thought it was appropriate to translate the common and the EMDN terms into Spanish and to use the bilingual list to create the ENGLISH-SPANISH DICTIONARY OF ESSENTIAL COVID-19 MEDICAL DEVICES, which can be useful to translators, proofreaders, interpreters, and editors.
