Digital Endpoints Have a Positive Effect on Clinical Trials
The use of technology has been increasing over the past few years, with devices such as wearables, biosensors, and other medical devices. One area where this has been particularly evident is the use of digital endpoints in clinical trials. Digital endpoints refer to data collected from digital sources, such as mobile apps and passively collected data via wearable devices; which are used to assess the efficacy of a treatment or intervention in a clinical trial. They allow more frequent, objective remote monitoring of patients during clinical studies. For example, a smartphone’s microphone might be used to diagnose or predict mild cognitive impairment

Closing The Gap and Raising Patient Care Standards
We all know that clinical trials are a critical part of medical research and that they play a crucial role in the development of new treatments and therapies. However, recruiting patients to participate in clinical studies can be a challenging task. It has been reported that only 9% of the population in the United States, has been invited to participate in clinical research and less than half of those invited actually enroll (Source: HINTS briefs Number 48 (Health Information National Trends Survey).
