Digital Clinical Trials Trump Traditional Forms of Clinical Trials – ObvioHealth

Digital clinical trials offer advantages which are leaps and bounds beyond that of traditional clinical trials.

-- ObvioHealth talks about digital clinical trials and how it outperforms traditional remote clinical trials. The revolution of digital clinical trials has begun to transform all aspects of the industry and people’s lives. Devices are becoming much more connected, and access to information is becoming freer to all, which allows for these new technologies to emerge.


The health industry has exceptional potential for rapid innovation; however, because it has been less beholden to user preferences, researchers have been reluctant to adapt to the technology. This has drastically slowed down the innovation and implementation of digital tools, regardless of how much safer and efficacious they make clinical trials.


Electronic data capture (EDC), which was first introduced in the 1980s, took decades to gain traction; expensive start-up equipment costs made digital transfers more difficult, and pharmaceutical behemoths relied heavily on paper-based, on-site reporting. However, as investigational locations increasingly use web-based software, EDC technology has gained universal adoption, leading to the establishment of the digital clinical trial.


Today, new approaches to data collection at the place of origin are being driven by increased bandwidth, enhanced WiFi, and Bluetooth technologies. This has resulted in digital transformation in clinical trials using resource data, with EDC being one of the electronic sources.


ObvioHealth also made the point that digital clinical trials are much more efficient, secure, simple, and effective in generating the data needed to drive innovation in comparison to their traditional counterpart. They are an invaluable resource for creating improved treatments and a huge help to the research sector especially when it comes to gathering real world data.


ObvioHealth and other digital clinical trial firms create and implement clinical trial procedures that expedite data collection and result in speedier enrolment, more compliance, and higher retention.
