Clinical esearch Administration
Embracing the scholar-practitioner (SP) model in clinical research represents a critical responsibility to improve, to inform, and to inspire the lives of others: improve through scholarly research, inform through practical application, and inspire through leadership. During the semester, awareness was heightened as to the importance of scholarly writing, theory implementation, and leadership influence. Being charged with such responsibilities is not for the faint of heart. Becoming independent scholars and critical thinkers who are ready to forge ahead in making valuable contributions to one's fields of expertise requires a great deal of dedication, tenacity, and vision to cultivate a new body of knowledge (Dietzmann, 2005). To become successful, one will need to engage in scholarly writing, which is the basis for the SP model. Without academic integrity, effective writing skills, and synergistic teamwork communicating new knowledge and influencing implementation will not be possible in clinical research.

Academic Integrity

Demonstrating responsible academic….

Clinical esearch Ethics
Medical research is the most sensitive field of research in the entire field of academia. It is governed by several rules, regulations, and ethical standards. For instance, no research endeavor is allowed in case it hurts the life of any human being whether directly or indirectly. Secondly, any research that is to be done must meet environmental conservation measures and should not deride or harm human dignity in any way. Besides, no research in the medical field is allowed in case it results in the extinction of an entire species of the sample used be it plants or animals. easonably, this ensures that there is no or little alteration to the ecosystem (Kapp, 2006). The environment that species live in is also guarded against any negative effects of the research. In this regard, any research that is deemed to have harmful effects on the entire, or a larger….

Nurse led clinical research: neonatal nurses' perceptions and experiences
The aims of the study are to understand the experiences of clinical nurses in conducting and utilizing clinical research within their neonatal setting.

This is a qualitative study of five neonatal nurses who were interviewed using semi-structured, face-to-face interviews to obtain the study data. This was a phenomenology-based study, which means it was meant to study the overall structure of the nurses experiences (Husserl 1962).

This study explored and examined the presuppositions of the nurses being interviewed. Specifically, the researcher wanted to probe for attitude and barriers to research participation within the neonatal setting. The second key feature was the researchers intentional selection of nurses for the study. The research chose nurses from two designated neonatal metropolitan nurseries. The final key feature was that nurses were interviewed away from their work setting and open ended questions were used for the interview.

The research design is….

oles of Clinical esearch Team Members
The relevance of a competently constituted clinical research team cannot be overstated when it comes to the success of clinical trials. This is true for both a site-based clinical research team and a sponsor-based clinical research team.

Sponsor-Based Clinical esearch Team

Data Coordinator

According to obinson (2009, p. 9), "the primary role of a data coordinator is to ensure that the clinical trial database is accurate and complete, ready for data analysis."

Education equirements

A degree in a biological science (obinson, 2009)

Professional Skills

Some of the most important professional skills a data coordinator ought to possess are "an eye for detail and methodical approach" (obinson, 2009, p. 9).

Experience equirements

Like any other key role in clinical research, experience in this case does matter. In most cases, 2-3 years worth of experience is deemed sufficient.

Interpersonal Skill equirements

According to obinson (2009), of key relevance to this position is the ability to communicate well with….

Stakeholders in Clinical esearch Trials
There are various stakeholders involved in clinical trials. These include, but they are not limited to, funding agencies, the patient, the government, regulatory and oversight boards, the general public, insurers (if any), and the industry. In essence, these stakeholders not only influence, but also contribute to the process as well as outcome of clinical trials in a variety of ways. Below, I concern myself with three key stakeholders: the government, industry, and the subject.

Government: the government is actively involved in the regulation of clinical trials. It is important to note that typically, the government plays the regulatory role through various federal agencies such as the Food and Drug Administration - FDA. FDA, for instance, plays an active role in trials that involve "new drugs or significant new uses for already-approved drugs, through the Investigation New Drug (IND) Application process" (Institute of Medicine, 1999, p. 4). For….

Volunteering for a Clinical esearch Trial
People accept to participate in clinical trials as volunteers for a number of reasons. In addition to fulfilling that inherent desire to help others, most people feel that participating in such trials helps move science forward (National Institutes of Health - NIH, 2014). Clinical trials, in essence, "look at new ways to prevent, detect, or treat disease" (NIH, 2014). Personally, I have never participated in a clinical trial. Neither has any member of my family, or friend to whom I'm closely acquainted.

It is important to note, from the onset, that if I met the criteria for a future trial, I would most definitely participate in the same. I would volunteer because deep inside, I feel that this would be good for humanity. Diseases bring about a great deal of misery and suffering to people, confining some to their beds forever, causing others to die miserable….

monitoring and the role of clinical monitor have become the focus of a growing amount of attention in recent years due to the centrality of these functions to the success of research studies. This paper reviews the literature to determine why the clinical research associate (CA)/clinical monitor is the most important contact that a site has with a sponsor, how the monitoring function can contribute to the success or failure of a study and what CAs can do to maximize the effective of their monitoring strategy. Finally, a summary of the research and important findings concerning these issues are presented in the conclusion.
Why is the clinical research associate (CA)/clinical monitor the most important contact that the site has with the sponsor?

Although every study setting is unique, CAs are generally tasked with the supervision and support of the administration of a clinical trial and monitoring its progress for a sponsor….

Participation in Clinical esearch Trial: Strategies esearchers Use to Increase ecruitment for the Studies
Strategies esearchers use to Increase ecruitment for their Studies

In order to conduct successful qualitative research, researchers need to recruit the right participants for clinical trials. However, there are many setbacks when it comes to identification and recruitment of these participants due to various problems, such as differing personal preferences, ineffectiveness of the research methods used, demographics, and character traits of the target population. According to Funa and colleagues (2014), one effective strategy that can be used to increase research participants is to fully understand the target population. They state that differences in cultures, education levels, and values may discourage the participants, and researchers need to take time to discover the topics they are sensitive to, what they believe in, and the level of education they have attained. However, the effectiveness of this strategy is not guaranteed….

Contract esearch Organizations eality
There are numerous reasons that can explicate the fact that contract research organizations or COs have become so popular of late in the conduct of clinical trials. Some of these pertain to basic financial necessities. The prices of materials used in clinical trials and in the pharmaceutical business in general are increasing. According to Forbes (2011), "A survey by W Baird analyst Eric Coldwell found 42% of this year's drugmakers say prices rose in this year's second quarter, up from one-third in the first quarter." Thus, because the basic materials involved in testing for pharmaceuticals has increased, outsourcing this process has become a much more viable option for those looking to conduct clinical trials.

Additionally, it is critical to note that in certain instances organizations are cutting back on their expenses. Such a statement certainly applies to pivotal aspects of research and development. In fact, there are several….

Prison Condition in USA vs. ussia
In assessing the human rights conditions of maximum security facilities, human rights groups look into 3 main areas: the duration of confinement; the conditions of confinement, and the criteria of eligibility. Each of these areas must be looked into individually and then considered in the context of the entire situation (Human ights Watch). Quite a number of concerns have been raised about the human rights conditions of the individuals held in prisons including: mistreatment of inmates / detainees by prison officials; unsafe conditions; and lack of sufficient legal protection (United States Department of State, n.d.). This paper also compares the situation of prison facilities in the United States and ussia.

Introduction

The Standard Minimum ules, or the SMs for the Treatment of Prisoners are one of the most important international agreements on how prisoners should be handled. The SMs were adopted in 1955 by a special United….

Letter to Support the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (GINA)
The Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (GINA) is an Act of U.S. Congress that makes it illegal for employers and health insurance companies to use genetic information against an individual. For instance, if a person has a genetic predisposition to a particular disease that runs in his or her family tree, an insurer is not allowed to use that information as a reason for denying coverage to that person. Likewise, a company may not discriminate against individuals based on their genetic information. GINA also has implications beyond either of these two instances. This letter will discuss why it is important that GINA be supported by Americans and their representatives in Congress.

Body

The first reason GINA should be supported is that it does help to protect individuals from discrimination by health insurance providers. A genetic predisposition to a particular disease….

Patent Protection on Clinical esearch: The Primary Sources of Innovation in the Drug and Device Development Process
When it comes to biopharmaceutical research, the United States is the best country in the world and it is currently the largest pharmaceutical market. It has invested immensely in research and development, especially in the biopharmaceutical sector, and it holds numerous intellectual property rights for a majority of the drugs developed. According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, FDA (2014), all drug companies have to seek the organization's approval before they sell new drugs, and these drugs have to be tested accordingly to guarantee the safety of the public. Adherence to these requirements often makes markets increasingly competitive and in the recent past, the increasing demand for innovation in pharmaceutical companies has necessitated new approaches to be applied in the drug and device development process. This is particularly because pharmaceutical companies have….

The authors of the article determined that by directing children into a specific line of questioning regraind a certain action "gives the child material that might appear in subsequent play or narrative" (Gilstrap and Cici, 2001).
The true relationship between both of these issues is that ultimately, Hewitt also engaged in leading children through the use of imagery, by asking them to draw how they would feel if something sexual did happen to them. Finally, the last problem identified with using clinical techniques in a forensic setting is related to relying on aspects of behavior as being congruous with abuse. Without properly attributing for the base rate of sexual abuse in the world or the population in which the children are, the propensity for gaining false positives is very real -- and problematic.

Thus, there are many different important concepts a forensic psychologist could take away form this particular article. One….
