Previous work has been done on both optimizing the clinical trials process, and on sending critical laboratory results and decision support through paging systems. We report the first integration of both these solution, focusing on improving the clinical trial recruitment process. We describe a clinical trial needing a real-time method of recruiting patients in an unbiased manner, quickly enough that study tests can be obtained before patients leave or samples discarded. The report describes how the ten currently recruited patients were found and how diagnoses of potentially life-threatening disorders are being made.
先前已经在优化临床试验流程以及通过寻呼系统发送关键实验室结果和决策支持方面开展了工作。我们报告了这两种解决方案的首次整合,重点是改进临床试验招募流程。我们描述了一项临床试验,该试验需要一种实时方法,以无偏差的方式快速招募患者,以便在患者离开或样本丢弃之前能够获得研究测试结果。该报告描述了目前招募的十名患者是如何找到的,以及如何对潜在的危及生命的疾病进行诊断。
