Utilization of an undergraduate emergency department research associate program for the screening and recruitment of research subjects with heart failure into a clinical study
The URMC EDRA program was highly effective in screening and consenting HF patients, successfully consenting 118 patients (14 per month). This is a significant achievement, especially given the study's strict inclusion and exclusion criteria. Compared to other studies and a full time research associate, the URMC EDRA program demonstrated remarkable productivity.
