What is Virtual Clinical Trials?
A virtual clinical trial also known as remote or decentralized clinical trials it refers to clinical trial processes that are enabled by digital technology. Because this is a relatively new model of clinical trials in terms of adoption, it is a means of conducting clinical research that is underutilized. Virtual clinical trials, on the other hand, have the potential to induce significant digital changes in clinical research methodology, resulting in a more patient-centric ecosystem. These solutions take into account a wide range of technological advantages, including innovative applications, electronic devices, online social engagement platforms, artificial intelligence, robotic process automation, and machine learning, to name a few. Virtual clinical trials, without a doubt, take advantage of the potential of telehealth/digital technology by incorporating virtual patient monitoring, wearable medical devices, remote SDV, and other features to perform safer and more effective clinical trial research. These virtual trials are patient-centered, low-cost, and simple to run.
