PED

Spanish to English Medical Medical (general)
I have a list of documents submitted for review to a scientific ethics committee in Chile. One document is called "CI Especial del Estudio para Chile... " followed by "basado en PED fecha 06FEB2013. CI is Informed Consent. PED could be EDP (electronic data processing) but I'm not fully convinced.

Any ideas?

pedido?
patyjs (asker) Jul 5, 2014:
No, Joseph, I already looked. And I can only find it on Google referring to informed consent, which further convinces me that it has nothing to do with data processing.
Joseph Tein Jul 5, 2014:
Look in your document Is there anything named elsewhere in your documents that has the initials PED? This could refer to some very specific document/test/form related to the study.

neutral Joseph Tein : Hi Donal. Cosnautas has "procesamiento electrónico de datos" ... but I'm not sure that either one applies here, having seen a lot of these documents.

It could be some sort of law or resolution. As such, I probably wouldn't translate it.

It could be a law on:
"Protection electrónico de data"
EDP - Electronic data protection

Here's a link from Peru that also mentions "MED" (...based on PED del ... y MED del...):

(I thought that for all we know, PED could be an English abbreviation/acronym).
Note from asker:
Great resource, Joseph. Especially since it gives some in other languages, too. Thanks. I think I'm going to leave it as is.
