Ambulatory clinical trials: from concept to practice.
As long as new technologies and clinical innovations are being pursued, clinical trials will continue. Economics, along with patient desires to be independent and to remain at home, will dictate that many of these trials be performed in ambulatory care settings. With every level of the research team functioning to protect patient rights and to ensure proper rigorous conduct of the trial, even more complex trials will become achievable on an ambulatory basis.
