Planning and designing clinical research is one of the most important aspects of successful execution and completion that you need to follow. In order to pull off a problem-free, safe, successful trial of any kind, you must emphasize project management in clinical research. Here are some important factors to think about before you start and how…
A clinical research coordinator plays a significant role in clinical trials and studies, performing multiple activities and fulfilling various responsibilities. They are a key person of interest in any trial, whether it’s for a drug, medical tool, or device, and remain involved from start to finish. A significant responsibility that they bear is patient safety…
Clinical data management is a significant aspect of the trials and testing phases, allowing researchers to process large volumes of data and input. Poor decision-making, old-fashioned tools, manual data entry, and analysis are some of the factors that impact the quality of research and data, which is why it’s important to upgrade tools and practices.…
The healthcare sector, along with other sectors, is undergoing technological transformation nowadays. There is an increased focus on research and development (R&D), particularly, patient-centricity and engagement in research. Therese areas are key factors in the advancement of healthcare in all dimensions, disciplines, and specializations. Here’s how patient-centricity and engagement can be improved in clinical research.…
Before hiring clinical staff for research, you must ensure they are up for the job. Medical or clinical research requires a keen eye for detail. You cannot give this task to anyone because the findings are significant and must be properly recorded. Let’s explore three things to consider before hiring clinical staff for research. 1.…
When conducting clinical trials in research, accurate and efficient data management is very important for appropriate and successful outcomes. Electronic Data Capture (EDC) systems are software tools for data collection and management of clinical trial data. In 2022, the electronic data capture (EDC) system market was worth US$1.13 billion. IMARC Group projects that the market will develop at…
sIRBs multi-site research Historically, research organizations and sites have relied on the institutional review board (IRB) and its oversight. sIRBs multi-site research is an important characteristic today. These committees are usually locally managed by the research institutions themselves, but in some cases, the organization also chooses independently administered IRBs. Recently, there has been a change…
Did you know that Phase III clinical trials create about 3.6 million data points, which is three times more than it did ten years ago? For decades, the Phase III stage has been carried out in the same manner: It can span many years, involves up to 3,000 individuals, and takes place before the medicine or…
Modern technology in the form of digital tools and clinical trial software has changed the mechanism of intervention delivery in research studies. Ever since the advent of smartphones took place, these digital health tools have exploded in research programs. Complete virtual clinical trials can also occur, eliminating the need for in-person researcher-patient contact entirely. This digital approach…
Efficacy Trials or explanatory trials are an effective way of explaining the outcome of an intervention under ideal circumstances. The efficacy in any clinical trial can be measured by estimating the outcomes rate observed in controlled and experimental groups. Research sites chosen for the efficacy trials play a crucial role in ensuring the success of…
