Clinical Nursing

The care of subjects taking part in clinical research is the main emphasis of clinical research nursing. Clinical research nurses play a crucial role in ensuring participant safety, ongoing maintenance of informed consent, and reliability of protocol implementation, accuracy of data collection, data recording, and follow-up, in addition to delivering and organising clinical care. The care that research participants receive is determined by the needs of the study, the gathering of research data, and clinical indications. Clinical research nurses must continuously strike a compromise between the requirements for protocol integrity and data quality and the clinical requirements, participant comfort, and safety.
