Generally, plenty of resources are consumed by clinical trials, namely efforts of humans, money, and time. A prime reason for (DCTs) decentralized clinical trials to be famous is because they can perform optimization of resources and in providing analysis of the live data of clinical trials with the progression of the study. Subsequently, DCTs imply…

For the advancement in medical knowledge and improvement in the care of patients a pivotal role is played by clinical trials. A study in the form of a methodical investigation is a clinical trial performed in patients for evaluating the efficacy, safety, and/or medical intervention’s effectiveness, namely a drug, process, device, or interactive intervention. Specific…

Retrospective studies utilize data from events in the past and are carried out a posteriori. These studies take their basis from the already collected and maintained medical records in the registry.

In research programs a pivotal role is played by epidemiological surveys to estimate the occurrence, incidence, factors of risk, and actual diseases history in the population of study. Researchers are assisted by these surveys in designing and performing relevant clinical studies, recognize the study perspective of the illnesses, and explain the results of the trial. We…

In the clinical study landscape, the study designs whose approach acts as a fundamental one at examining the safety, efficacy, and pertinence of medical interventions in the real-world are open trials. Open trials reveal the assignment of treatment to the parties involved in a transparent manner whereas in blind study strategies the participants, researchers, or…

Two broad classification of research programs are: Qualitative and Quantitative. Today we will briefly discuss <<qualitative research programs>>.  Qualitative research is also known as surveys; the word qualitative means we are going to collect subjective data and not numbers. For example, if an individual is a smoker or non-smoker, the answer yes/ no will be…

Pharmacovigilance, or safety of a drug, involves collecting systematically, evaluation, observing, and avoidance of adverse reactions connected to therapies and medications.

The experience of any unpleasant situation or any reactions arising in the body of a patient in response…

Drug safety entails safe use of medicinal products. This concept applies to over-the-counter as well as prescription medicines. It is also applicable for medical therapies indicated for certain disease conditions.  The governing principle for drug safety is indicated for making available products that are safe for use by patients and carry minimal risk of causing…

The consumption of therapeutic products is meant for a particular objective. Along with their effectiveness in the treatment of a specific illness, they should be safe for intake. The aspect of safety is not only for the available medications in the market but also for the developing medications and the ones in different developmental stages.…
