Text. Make recommendations and changes along the way to improve recruitment efforts. By having a successful recruitment campaign, you’ll attain the ideal patients for your trial and have a higher chance of retainment.
Once patients are enrolled and the trials begin, the focus will shift to retention and compliance. There are numerous ways that a trial can increase the likelihood of patient retention. An easy way to begin is actually focusing on simplicity! Make the process go as smoothly as possible for patients who have decided to dedicate time to the trial. Many aspects of your trial can be done digitally and from the comfort of your patients’ homes. Allow for scheduling and patient diaries to be entered online and automate reminders so your patients receive a text the day before appointments. You can also use digital tools to allow patients to access important documents and resources at any given time or place.
Another instance that makes it more convenient for your patients is having a dedicated individual who they can call to answer any questions or concerns. This gives patients peace of mind and ensures that they know you consider them a priority. Designing a patient-centric trial that provides convenience and compassion will significantly increase the likelihood of patient retention.
From the initial research regarding your target market all the way through to trial execution, it’s imperative to utilize best practices to ensure your clinical trial is successful. Keep these tips top of mind for your next clinical trial endeavor and see how your patient recruitment and retention rates can increase.
