In clinical trials, there is no other staff member from the research clinic that a study participant will spend more time and interact with than the study coordinator.  This relationship is very important not only for all parties to have a pleasant experience, but also to ensure that data is being recorded properly.  We have seen countless examples of study participant and study coordinator not communicating properly, and therefore having side effects and adverse events not being reported. Click here for just one example of a trial participant not sharing all his side effects because he did not have a good relationship with the study coordinator. The first video no longer works, but the email is available in its entirety, and Don’s video response is also available.
