Computerized clinical decision support systems, or CDSS, represent a paradigm shift in healthcare today. CDSS are used to augment clinicians in their complex decision-making processes. Since their first use in the 1980s, CDSS have seen a rapid evolution.
The scope of functions provided by CDSS is vast, including diagnostics, alarm systems, disease management, prescription (Rx), drug control, and much more.15They can manifest as computerized alerts and reminders, computerized guidelines, order sets, patient data reports, documentation templates, and ...

A multi-market clinical strategy can lead to significant cost efficiencies and resource optimisation. Conducting clinical trials in emerging markets is often more cost-effective than in developed markets. Additionally, lower operational costs associated with patient recruitment...
Commonly, electronic trial management solutions are perceived to have the greatest impact on clinical trial supplies, largely because such savings are tangible and easily defined. However, this article will argue that the prevention of over-recruitment of study subjects often yields a larger cost ...
There are different uptake goals, CHW-to-population ratios and systems for CHW management and supervision dependent on the size and scope of the study (Table 1). WASH efficacy studies typically examine the effects of specific WASH technologies and behaviors on outcomes of interest in order to ...
On the other hand, recent evidence suggests that there may be substantial therapeutic benefits of lowering blood pressure and serum cholesterol level for all individuals at risk, not simply those with elevated rates.11 A recent clinical trial also demonstrated that metformin can prevent or delay the...
