+/- 6 months / + 6 months

English to Spanish Medical Medical: Instruments cirugía plástica: prótesis mamarias de silicona
Can you provide a translation for the above in the following sentences:

The study protocol set out that visits could take place +/- 6 months from the scheduled visit date.
Hence the 4 year interim report included visits + 6 months from the scheduled visit date.

I'm pressed for time, so please reply ASAP.


Thank you
Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Miguel Armentia

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

desde 6 meses antes hasta 6 meses después

Pienso que quiere decir que las visitas podrían realizarse desde 6 meses antes hasta 6 meses después de la fecha prevista (para la visita).

dentro de los 6 meses anteriores y posteriores a la fecha...

En los protocolos clínicos se suele establecer un margen ("window") para las visitas del estudio con el fin de que, si una visita no ocurre exactamente el día previsto (por ej, el día 6 de marzo) sino X días después o antes, esto no se considere un desvío del protocolo. Esto en general se expresa con un signo de "+/-". Si se repite mucho, podés utilizar el mismo formato en español (+/- 6 meses).
