Joan F. Bachenheimer, TCN e-Systems Founder, Discusses e-Recruitment Tools
May 2007 // PharmaVOICE
In the past decade, many sponsors have come to rely on the help of outside patient recruitment experts. But with patient recruitment now recognized as the most significant cause of clinical study delay, business leaders high on the chain of command at sponsor companies large and small are paying attention and requiring more control over this critical process.
In this article, Joan F. Bachenheimer enlightens readers on the six enrollment risk areas sponsors may face. She explains how Web-based recruitment tools can easily integrate with other systems and draw in key data points that will help study teams respond to these risks. Calling the system a "patient recruitment management system," or PRMS, she explains how a PRMS is comprised of modules that can be individually selected based on key study challenges. Ultimately, she says, a PRMS just may be what sponsors need to create an instant recruitment infrastructure.
