ICTS Provides Solutions for Rheumatology Study

Raleigh, NC, March 04, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Tom Sturgis, president of ICTS (Integrated Clinical Trial Services, LLC) (www.icts.us), has announced that the company has completed the development and implementation of a program designed to increase patient consent in a rheumatology study. The ongoing and parallel studies showed a low consent rate of 7 percent when the trial began. After gathering information about patient communication and using a professional video program to deliver the message, the consent rate in the rheumatology study rose to an average of more than 20 percent.

“We are pleased to deliver measurable results to our clients,” said Sturgis. “Through our effective research and study methods, we were able to considerably raise the consent rate and increase effective patient communication.”

“The true winners here are the patients, who were able to receive the most difficult information in the consent process and fully digest the contents,” said Sturgis. “Communicating important information efficiently has never been more important for clinical trials than it is today.”
