Implementation of digital health technology in clinical trials: the 6R framework 🏥 AstraZeneca has introduced digital health solutions into clinical trials, demonstrating improved patient experience, accelerated timelines, and reduced costs. Clinical trials, traditionally rooted in in-person visits, have often been a source of inconvenience for patients. But with the onset of the digital age, a significant shift is taking place, dramatically changing the way these trials are conducted. 📌 Understanding the Challenge: Traditional clinical trials come with a set of demands for participants, such as time, logistical challenges, and costs. Not everyone finds it feasible to attend frequent in-person visits. 📌Harnessing Digital Power: The rise of digital devices has provided a promising avenue for evolving clinical trials. Innovations like digital biomarkers, electronic monitoring devices, and wearable tech are changing the face of trials, allowing for remote and accurate data collection. 📌The Unexpected Catalyst - COVID-19: The pandemic, despite its disruptions, acted as a catalyst for the digital evolution of clinical trials. The emphasis shifted towards a more patient-centric approach. Research indicates that a majority of trial evaluations could now be conducted remotely, leading to a 40% reduction in in-person visits. 📌Significant Outcomes: The move to digital offers enhanced patient experiences, cost efficiencies, and quicker study timelines. For example, a recent trial incorporating digital tools experienced a 60% decrease in necessary patient visits and a corresponding enhancement in patient satisfaction, resulting in substantial economic savings. 👉 Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/eVijZyRZ *Picture: Nature Medicine article #DigitalHealth #ClinicalTrials #Innovation #PatientFirst

We were really excited to launch the Hexarad Thought Leadership Insitute a few weeks ago with a launch event at The Shard. Huge thanks to Mike Farrar for hosting. Myself, Jay, Amy and Sam had the idea to form Hexarad when we were registrars at St George’s. We used to have quick chats during our breaks or while grabbing lunch in the middle of busy days. We would talk about the problems we saw in Radiology and what we would do to solve them. At first they were fun ‘what if’ conversations but they gradually evolved into more serious ‘why not’ conversations.    Our example is not unique in healthcare. All over the world, frontline clinicians have these kinds of conversations, often in-between the pressing jobs that are ahead of them.  We’ve seen firsthand the importance of teamwork and community to deliver the best outcomes for patients. It’s what saves lives, whether that’s in a big city hospital or a small rural clinic.     That’s why we’ve decided to create the Hexarad Thought Leadership Institute. It’s aim is to give a forum for radiology clinicians and healthcare decision-makers to have frank conversations about the issues they face and the solutions that could solve them. To change the ‘what if’ conversations to the ‘why not’ discussions.       We’ll be hosting events, building partnerships and publishing papers.
