Kliniczni

Kliniczni is the masculine personal plural form of the Polish adjective kliniczny, meaning "clinical" or "pertaining to clinical medicine." It is used to describe people or things connected with clinical practice, research, or patient care. In medical and scientific contexts, kliniczni appears in phrases such as lekarze kliniczni (clinical doctors) or pracownicy kliniczni (clinical staff).

As a Polish adjective, kliniczny agrees with the noun in gender and number. For masculine personal plural nouns, the form is kliniczni (for example, lekarze kliniczni). For feminine or neuter nouns and for non-personal plural, the form is kliniczne (for example, pielęgniarki kliniczne, badania kliniczne).

Common usages include describing roles, settings, or activities in healthcare and research. Examples include badania kliniczne (clinical trials), opieka kliniczna (clinical care), and literatura kliniczna (clinical literature). The term often appears in hospital departments, research institutes, and pharmaceutical contexts to distinguish real-world patient-facing work from basic or laboratory-oriented studies.

Etymology and related terms: kliniczny derives from klinika (clinic), with roots in the Greek term klinikos. Related Polish terms include klinika (clinic), badania kliniczne (clinical trials), and opieka kliniczna (clinical care). The general concept is "clinical" as opposed to laboratory or theoretical contexts.
