Clinical Research Professionals (CRPs) are essential members of the and Translational Workforce. Many academic medical institutions struggle to recruit retain these vital team members. One strategy increase job satisfaction promote retention CRPs is through educational initiatives that provide training professional development. The South Carolina (SCTR) Institute Workforce Development (WD) at Medical University (MUSC) developed several trainings as part our larger portfolio for CRPs. In 2022...
ClinicalTrials.gov is a web-based resource which provides the general public, healthcare professionals, patients, and caregivers access to privately publicly supported clinical trials trial results. The web site maintained by National Library of Medicine (NLM) at Institutes Health (NIH) (ClinicalTrials.gov Background, 2018). penalties for non-compliance with legal obligations under FDAAA 801 (Food Drug Administration Amendments Act 2007) NIH requirements registering reporting results on...
A behavioral intensive care unit was originally designed as a 21-day inpatient program for treating agitation among demented patients, one of the most common disorders in this group. Due to need dramatically reduce length stay and create alternative environments, original model modified into an integrated continuum blending outpatient partial hospitalization that reduced from 21 average seven days. This quasiexperimental study compared effectiveness continuum-of-care programs conducted cost...
Quality assurance (QA) of clinical trials is essential to protect the welfare trial participants and integrity data collected. However, there little detailed information available on specific procedures outcomes QA monitoring for trials.This article describes experience National Institute Drug Abuse's (NIDA) Abuse Treatment Clinical Trials Network (CTN) in devising implementing a three-tiered model rigorous multi-site randomized implemented community-based substance abuse treatment programs....
We evaluated the impact of a regulatory support service (known as Regulatory Knowledge and Support [RKS] program), part Medical University South Carolina’s Clinical Translational Science Award, on success Institutional Review Board (IRB) applications that have previously been deemed by IRB to be Not Ready for (NRR). At time this evaluation, 77 studies had NRR, 53 which came from trainees junior faculty. All received either approval or were not research, therefore did require review. In all,...
Low-accruing clinical trials delay translation of research breakthroughs into the clinic, expose participants to risk without providing meaningful insight, increase cost therapies, and waste limited resources. By tracking patient accrual, Clinical Translational Science Awards hubs can identify at-risk studies provide them support needed reach recruitment goals maintain financial solvency. However, accrual has proved challenging because relevant patient- protocol-level data often reside in...
Hybrid academic-business models are evolving in CTSA clinical research units.
Integrated, real-time data are crucial to evaluate translational efforts accelerate innovation into care. Too often, however, needed fragmented in disparate systems. The South Carolina Clinical & Translational Research Institute at the Medical University of (MUSC) developed and implemented a universal study identifier-the Master Identifier (RMID)-for tracking research studies across systems warehouse-inspired model-the Integrated Network Systems (RINS)-for integrating from those systems.In...
SPARCRequest© (Services, Pricing, & Application for Research Centers) is a web-based research management system that provides modular and adaptable "electronic storefront" research-related services. Developed by the South Carolina Clinical Translational Institute at Medical University of Carolina, it was released as open source (OS) code in 2014. The adoption accelerated 2016, when, to ensure responsiveness needs partners, its governance also became open. This model enables OS partners...
