French term

dossier épuré

French to English Medical Other medical archives record keeping
Les dossiers des patients ne peuvent être épurés avant le délai fixé

une feuille sommaire sur laquelle apparaît le numéro du dossier épuré

I can't make out whether this relates to "marked for deletion" or "depersonalized records" or "documents to be purged/pruned" ???

How do you know what is being deleted in this file? The French isn't saying what exactly.

depersonalized records

Meaning: Sensitive information has been removed but relevant data remains. (Medical)
Following a police investigation, records are "sanitized". Different word meaning the same thing.
Note from asker:
Thanks - I will go with depersonalized (multiple choice option) or anonymized (which gets a lot more hits on Google when coupled with the term "medical archives"
Peer comment(s):

agree Anne-Marie Grant (X) : I would have said 'anonymized/anonymised', but I guess it's the same thing

"anonymised medical records" yes, means the same thing. Thanks
agree rkillings : 'anonymised'.

thank you
neutral MatthewLaSon : But "epuré" could mean more than just deleting personal information? It's hard to tell what information is being deleted. It seems that it would be personal info, but who knows for sure. The French is not being that specific.

filtered records

Hello,

We aren't deleting the entire records, just removing information from them. We don't know exactly what (probably personal information, but we can't be sure if that is all). It might be best to just say "filtered records", which I have seen in matters related to patient privacy laws.

épurer = rendre quelque chose plus pur

I hope this helps.
Note from asker:
I still have to verify everyone's answers filtered is much better than deleted I think - thanks
