Portuguese translation:"cego" sobre a condição do paciente
Explanation:
Ou seja, o examinador conhecia a condição do paciente, então não atendeu às condições do duplo-cego. Veja os links:

Occasionally researchers prefer to use the terms masked (adj) or to mask (vt) instead of 'blind/blinded/to blind'.
