Medical - Medical (general) / trials
Danish term or phrase: afblinding
In the context of clinical trials, can anyone tell me what "afblinding" is in English please? Or indeed confirm what must be the opposite, a "blindet forsøg" (which I imagine is a blind trial)?
Do you "unblind" data?
Thanks asap.
