Abstract:
Advanced internet videoconferencing software and improving network connectivity have the potential to create high quality collaboration environments among clinical trial researchers and health care providers at primary care medical settings. However, site policy and support restrictions have limited the ability of medical researchers to benefit from these advances. Novel combinations of existing open source solutions hold promise for overcoming barriers to adoption. Simplified installation, configuration, and operation of videoconferencing will further assist medical research.
