Global Study Support

Patient Engagement Technology

Designed with the patient in mind, ERT’s solutions use technology to ensure compliance and keep patients informed throughout the study.

ERT patient engagement and retention approaches include:

• Easy deployment of patient provisioned or BYOD devices
• Integrated devices to capture multiple endpoints
• On-demand and embedded eLearning for patients and caregivers
• Easy-to-follow user interfaces
• Protocol workflows to ensure all data are collected on-time and in the correct order
• Scheduled alerts on devices to take assessment or conduct test
• SMS text message assessment alerts to patient cell phones
• eConsent
• Medication tracking

Virtual Visits

Leverage telemedicine or telehealth technology to support a video or virtual visit.

If your study does not have a defined back-up mechanism for when a patient cannot attend a scheduled site visit or if a patient home visit is not possible, leveraging telemedicine or telehealth technology to support a video or virtual visit has many advantages.

ERT plans to partner with a leading technology platform to offer this capability alongside ERT solutions.  Stay tuned for more information on this offering in the near future.

Home Monitoring Assessments

ERT’s integrated solutions capture compliant, verified data without site visits and transmit it for central review and analysis in the cloud.

Technology enables the collection of patient data outside of sites and across many endpoints and modalities. ERT solutions include:

• eCOA via Web, BYOD, provisioned device or Phone/IVR (Note: some protocols require these at home devices to be used for in-clinic assessments as well– in these scenarios, sites can use a backup device with a reactivation process or new form to collect in-clinic data)
• eCOA integrated with at-home spirometry monitoring and glucose capture
• Easy-to-use home spirometry monitoring with integrated eDiary and eCOA options (AM3 and iSpiro)
• Wearable solutions for blood pressure data collection in the patient’s home
• Self-collected ECGs from patient-owned devices (Note: most of these devices are single lead ECGs with limited indications approved for regulatory use; as such, ERT can only offer limited evaluations in this use case)
• Image medical photography at home or ultrasounds received from a local provider
• Custom medical device, wearables and biosensors integrations
