Thank you. I am enjoying the discussion. Are you referring to only RCTs when you discuss ‘tele-trials’? Or does the term usually encompass other designs? And can you comment on tele-trials outside the acute care setting, e.g. residential aged care? Suzanne, Nursing, University of Melbourne.

COVID has been the mother of all inventions. Teletrials have been given a real positive push with the acceptance by Sponsors, Ethics and Governance groups about how you can perform usual care very well via telehealth

telehealth is just a tool, all trials could include components of care delivered by telehealth as part of a trial.

the monitoring can be done at the central site if they are recording source data. All monitoring can be done remotely.

The current global population is approximately 7.8 billion. There are 3.9 billion smartphone owners globally at the moment. The opportunity to build accessibility for health care and trials is enormous

Thank you Nicole
