Study Summary

Clinical trials (CTs) have become increasingly complex, requiring significant commitment from participants. Decentralized clinical trials (DCTs) offer an alternative by shifting some activities away from traditional sites to locations like the patient's home. This reduces the burden on participants, improves accessibility, and enhances recruitment and retention rates.

DCTs leverage digital tools such as telemedicine, electronic consent, and wearable devices for data collection. These methods enable fewer site visits, lowering costs and integrating trials more seamlessly into participants' daily routines.

This survey aims to assess the willingness of participants already enrolled in traditional CTs to engage in DCTs. Their prior experience with trial procedures allows them to provide valuable insights into the perceived benefits and feasibility of decentralized elements.
