TRANSFoRm eHealth solution for quality of life monitoring.

Patient Recorded Outcome Measures (PROMs) are an essential part of quality of life monitoring, clinical trials, improvement studies and other medical tasks. Recently, web and mobile technologies have been explored as means of improving the response rates and quality of data collected. Despite the potential benefit of this approach, there are currently no widely accepted standards for developing or implementing PROMs in CER (Comparative Effectiveness Research).

Feasibility and acceptability of TRANSFoRm to improve clinical trial recruitment in primary care.

Background: Recruitment of study participants is a challenging process for health professionals and patients. The Translational Medicine and Patient Safety in Europe (TRANSFoRm) clinical trial tools enable automated identification, recruitment and follow-up in clinical trials, potentially saving time, effort and costs for all parties involved.

Objectives: This study evaluates the acceptability and feasibility of TRANSFoRm to improve clinical trial recruitment in primary care.
