There are Four Clinical Trial Phases, Each is a Chance for Participants to Get Involved
Many people consider being a part of a clinical trial, but more often than not doubts about the risks and the unknown keep people from signing up for them. Clinical trials are what allow medicine and biotechnology to advance. There are many good reasons to participate, but here are the top three reasons to become a participant.
Clinical trial participants can access potential treatments for conditions that aren’t yet available to the public. While there are risks, many people have benefited from the treatments, medicines, and medical devices available through research studies and clinical trials. Participants are actively engaging in their own healthcare because you are exploring all options available. Many times clinical trial sites have the newest technology and participants receive expert care.
Participants could be paid or compensated for the participation in clinical trials. While not all trials pay, many do. When researching clinical trials it is important to look into whether or not you will be paid to be a part of that clinical trial. The amount paid varies from trial to trial.
Participants will be helping others. No doubt about it, clinical trials change lives and save lives. While it is great to be paid to be a part of a trial, it is also good to know you are helping others. If you have a genetic condition that you are joining a trial for, you might even help another member of your own family some day. There are multiple phases of clinical trials so there are many chances for you to participate. Each is another chance to help other people.
Whatever reason you might have for wanting to join a trial, it is good to know that you will receive top quality care all while helping others. Search for a clinical trial today and let us match you to one that fits your situation…and in advance, thank you for participating!
