TCN e-Systems Connects Global Study Teams with Vital Patient Recruitment Metrics
TCN e-Systems has introduced product enhancements that include mobile connectivity from a smartphone device. The core technology, TrialCentralNetSM, has served as the infrastructure for global and domestic clinical studies, and users are now able to make more rapid business decisions regarding trial management through broader access to real-time recruitment metrics.
“We’ve created a smartphone app to address the needs of clinical teams that rely on our tools for readily accessible, real-time information,” said Sarah Mandracchia, director of data management. “The smartphone app provides access to study-goal information, enrollment numbers, key dates, country information, and media metrics, and study teams can now assess key data and make decisions on the go through their iPhone® or Blackberry®.”
Among the latest enhancements to Version 5.2 is the addition of 11 new languages to the product’s language library.
“With the addition of these languages, we now cover 80 percent of clinical research professionals in their native languages, which will allow site personnel to focus on recruitment efforts and data management. User satisfaction and compliance are certainly expected to benefit as well," Mandracchia said.
The TrialCentralNetSM language library now includes Chinese, Dutch, English, French, German, Hindi, Italian, Japanese, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish.
