What can patients expect? Will patients have additional requirements/testing than a non-clinical trial patient?
Posted on June 21, 2024
- Patients participating in a clinical trial can expect to receive additional care along side the care they would receive from their providers. Clinical research trials can require additional procedures such as additional lab work (blood and urine samples), ECGs, questionnaires, dietician visits and visits with our clinical research team.
- Research visits can take 1-3 hours depending on the type of visit and necessary requirements from the study.
- Research visits must stick to the mandatory requirements of each study and maybe less flexible compare to a standard visit to your provider.
- Participating in a research trial requires more frequent visits and phone calls with the site and open an honest communication with the Clinical Research staff. Patients are asked to call the site if they experience any medical or health issues or changes to their mediation.
