However, remote monitoring often changes the workflow of the clinical trial site staff. This study aims to determine how remote monitoring affects the time allocation of site staff toward duties related to monitoring visits, and to identify which tasks are most affected when the sponsor uses a remote monitoring strategy. A survey was sent out to clinical research staff within BSWRI. Research staff tended to spend less time toward remote monitoring duties than on-site monitoring duties. Submitting source documents, regulatory, and AE documentation were identified as more time-consuming for remote monitoring, while preparing for visits and assisting the monitor while on-site were identified as more time-consuming for on-site monitoring. This study identified potential targets for improvements in the workflow of clinical trial sites.application/pdfenMedical SciencesMedicine and Health SciencesMonitoringremote monitoringcentralized monitoringSDVInternship Practicum Report
