Russian Medical and Technical Translation by Physicians and Engineers

Medical records: treatment in Georgia and continuity of care

Russian-speaking residents bring their medical history with them - выписной эпикриз, histology, imaging reports, lab results, vaccination cards, disability certificates and prescriptions - and Georgian clinics, insurers and the social service agency need them in Georgian. Patients from Russia, Kazakhstan and Belarus who travel to Georgia for IVF, cardiac surgery, oncology, dental work and rehabilitation need their records translated before the first consultation, and their Georgian discharge summaries translated back into Russian for the doctor at home. Our medical translators are practicing or former physicians. They keep ICD-10 codes, INN drug names, dosages and units exactly as written and never reinterpret a diagnosis; where a Russian record uses a classification or drug name not used in Georgia, they add a note rather than substitute. Translations can be certified for clinics or notarized for insurers and state agencies.

Insurance claims, disability and social documents

Insurers on both sides ask for translated medical documentation: Georgian clinic invoices, epicrises and receipts translated into Russian for a Russian or Kazakh insurer, and Russian-language medical records translated into Georgian for Georgian insurers and for the Social Service Agency's disability and benefit procedures. Disability certificates (справка МСЭ), sick leave records and maternity documents from Russian-speaking countries are translated and notarized for Georgian employers and the Revenue Service. These files often combine medical and financial content, so a physician translates the clinical part and an accountant checks the invoices.

Clinical trials and pharmaceutical registration

Georgia hosts clinical trials sponsored from Russian-speaking countries and international sponsors who run parallel sites across Georgia, Kazakhstan, Belarus and Ukraine. Protocols, patient information sheets, informed consent forms, investigator brochures, case report forms and safety reports are translated between Russian and Georgian, with back-translation of consent forms provided as a separate verification step for ethics committees. Pharmaceutical companies registering products in Georgia from Russian-language dossiers need the summary of product characteristics, package leaflet, certificate of pharmaceutical product and GMP certificates translated, and Georgian manufacturers exporting to EAEU markets need the reverse, with terminology aligned to EAEU regulatory language.

Technical manuals, GOST standards and industrial documentation

Equipment imported into Georgia from Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan - agricultural machinery, energy equipment, industrial lines, vehicles - comes with Russian manuals that Georgian operators, safety inspectors and customs require in Georgian, and Georgian exporters to those markets need Georgian or English manuals in Russian. We translate operation and maintenance manuals, passports of equipment (паспорт изделия), technical conditions (ТУ), datasheets and safety data sheets, keeping part numbers and warning symbols intact and delivering in the original layout. GOST and EAEU technical regulations, test reports and conformity certificates are translated with the standard references preserved, and for energy, mining and construction projects we translate HSE documentation, method statements and incident reports for mixed Georgian and Russian-speaking crews.

Patents, Sakpatenti filings and intellectual property

Russian-language patent applications entering Georgia through Sakpatenti require Georgian translations of the description, claims and abstract, drafted in patent language where a single narrowed claim can reduce protection. Our patent translators work with engineers in the relevant field and follow existing Georgian patent terminology in the same class. Trademark applications, license agreements, software documentation and copyright registrations are translated for Sakpatenti and for Rospatent and Kazpatent in the other direction. IT companies relocated from Russia and Belarus frequently need software documentation, user agreements and privacy policies translated into Georgian and English for Georgian regulators and international customers.

Drawings, catalogs and quality control

Engineering drawings in AutoCAD DWG and DXF, Компас files and PDF plan sets carry title blocks, notes and legends that must be translated without disturbing the drawing; we work inside the files and return them with layers and dimensions intact. Product catalogs, spec sheets and technical proposals are translated with attention to units, tolerances and material grades and laid out in your design files. Every medical and technical file passes through a subject specialist, a second bilingual reviewer and a final numerical check comparing units, decimal separators, dosages, part numbers and reference ranges line by line against the source. Source errors are flagged rather than silently corrected, glossaries are agreed before bulk work begins, and certificates of accuracy and notarization are available for regulators, insurers and courts.

Handwritten Russian medical records deserve a special mention. Many epicrises and outpatient cards from regional clinics are partly handwritten, and deciphering them is a medical skill as much as a linguistic one. Our physician translators read them routinely; where a word is genuinely illegible we mark it as such rather than guess, so the receiving doctor knows exactly what was and was not recoverable from the source.
