SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR RECRUITMENT OF CANDIDATES FOR CLINICAL TRIALS WHILE MAINTAINING SECURITY

摘要

An on-line (Figure 1) click wrap electronic agreement (210) that a user must agree to prior to being registered as a volunteer and considered as a potential candidate in a clinical trial or research study. The agreement (210) authorizes the release of the end user's medical and/or personal information to representatives of the clinical trials and research studies for which the volunteer may be considered as a potential candidate. After receiving the end user's consent to the click wrap agreement (210) an electronic survey form (Figures 3a-3f) is generated by a secure server (100) and is displayed at the end uer's computer terminal (125, 130, 135). Responses by the end user to the survey form (Figures 3a-3f) are kept secure as much as possible while being transmitted from the computer terminal (125, 130, 135) across the network (120) to the server (100) and while stored and accessed only by authorized personnel at the central office (110).
