Consent forms for TV US translated in Foreign Languages

Consent forms for TV US translated in Foreign Languages


Answer

  1. Thank you for your post. 

    Having a document, or multiple documents, regarding consent for transvaginal examinations would be a requirement of the practice/clinic/hospital to develop based on existing policies that may differ from site to site. It may be important to ensure that not just a consent form is translated into the required language, but a question/answer section as well. 

    Many centres have translation services available, or may require the patient to arrange for a translator. 

    One option is to use google translate, as smart phones and computers are more readily available.
