Contrary to the…

The backbone of implementing Decentralized clinical trials (DCTs) is the efficiently running digital platform. DCT requires a customized DCT platform that has capability to receive and transmit the data accurately from various sources. Thus, DCT is an innovative shift in the traditional paradigm of clinical research, leveraging technology to facilitate remote participation and data collection.…

Decentralized Clinical Trials (DCTs) represent a shift in paradigm in the clinical study landscape, suggesting a host of features that are user-friendly and heighten the experience for both participants and researchers overall. Adopting the influence of technology, DCTs influence digital platforms, capabilities that are remote, and tools that are innovative to make more convenient and…

Decentralized trials (DCTs) lay emphasis on remote data access for various tasks and functions.  Self-monitoring by patients is one of such tasks and in DCTs refers to the practice of trial subjects completing their health records remotely and actively participating in the progress of a clinical trial from their own homes or other non-traditional settings.…

Decentralized clinical trials (DCTs) are a modern approach to conducting clinical research that aims to enhance efficiency, accessibility, and participant engagement. These trials leverage technology to collect data remotely, reducing the need for participants to visit traditional clinical trial sites. In DCTs, investigators are at the center of the activities and play a crucial role…
