Hiding in plain sight – CRIO eSource is the biggest opportunity for sponsors. While the clinical research industry has automated many processes, there is one area that is still mostly paper-bound. This is the source of one of the greatest inefficiencies in research today. Automating this one process could drive 20% cost savings in a...

73% of sites reported using paper as the primary means of data collection In a 2018 CRIO site survey with over 100 respondents, sites reported that they use their Electronic Medical Record (EMR) primarily for patient recruitment purposes, but not for source data collection. 62% of site respondents reported that they use the EMR as...
Running a Site
For every clinical trial, the sponsor and/or a CRO will conduct a site selection process to determine what research sites are suitable to conduct their trial. A site’s ‘suitability’ is measured by a multitude of factors including but not limited to previous experience conducting clinical trials, research experience for a specific indication, resources available at...
COVID-19 trials have quickly become the top trafficked listings. According to WCG Insights, COVID trial listings represent 15.1% of total visits in the last 6 months and has led to a decrease in interest in trials for other conditions. Given the fluid nature of the pandemic and the increasing need for COVID treatments and vaccines,...

Most discussion about electronic source (eSource) documentation in the clinical research enterprise starts from a sponsor standpoint, with eSource being viewed as an extension-almost a mobile version of electronic data capture (EDC). In this view, sponsors provide sites with eSource systems that the sites use to collect data, which are then transmitted to the EDC...
