The Impact of Extended-Hours Patient Recruitment on Critical Care Clinical Trial Enrollment
A review of our five recent critical care trials showed that nearly 70% of enrollment occurred outside of business hours. Limiting recruitment to only business hours would have resulted in a prohibitively longer time to complete the trials. This analysis provides a strong motivation and rationale for extending research staffing coverage beyond business hours.
