German to English translations [PRO]
Medical - Medical: Pharmaceuticals / Patienteninformation, klinische Studie
German term or phrase: ...and as clinically needed on study to look for any abnormality...
"A small urine sample will be collected at screening and as clinically needed on study to look for any abnormality in your urine."

Ich habe die Sprachrichtung absichtlich umgekehrt angegeben, um englische Muttersprachler zu erreichen. Does this sentence make any sense to you?

Es ist kein weiterer Kontext verfügbar :-(

Der Satz ergibt für mich keinen rechten Sinn, da stimmt doch die Grammatik bzw. die Syntax nicht?! Leider kann ich den Kunden nicht fragen, da nicht mehr erreichbar, und bis morgen früh soll die Ü geliefert werden.

Quick help will be much appreciated!

English translation:This is what it seems to mean
Explanation:
A small urine sample will be collected (and examined for any abnormal findings) at screening and subsequently, as assessed by clinical evaluation.

I'm posting this because you say, "Leider kann ich den Kunden nicht fragen, da nicht mehr erreichbar, und bis morgen früh soll die Ü geliefert werden."

This would help you with the translation, hopefully. Best of luck.

...and as clinically needed during the study to look for any abnormality...


Explanation:
I am a US English speaker, and the sentence makes no sense to me. I suspect it is an error - in the translation if you are doing a backtranslation. If it is the original English, it is a poor example of writing.
