The Center held a professional development webinar devoted to organizing a clinical trial site (CTS) on the basis of healthcare facilities. Heads and medical staff of healthcare institutions were able to participate, with the opportunity to earn professional development points.
Participants became familiar with the main organizational, administrative and regulatory approaches to setting up a clinical trial site in a healthcare facility. In particular, they learned:
- What a clinical trial site is and what criteria it must meet
- Which healthcare facilities may be involved in conducting clinical trials
- Regulatory legal requirements for private and municipal healthcare facilities in which trials are planned to be conducted
- Requirements for personnel involved in clinical trials, distribution of authority.
- Ethics Committee – purpose of establishment, tasks, and documents required for its work.
The topics were covered taking into account the Center's typical comments on the organization of clinical trial sites, which are most often recorded as a result of clinical audits.
The course was taught by Serhii Rasputniak, Deputy Head of the Audit Department, and Nina Tsyntsadze, an expert of the Clinical Trials Clinical Audit Division of the Center. The training was organized by the Agency for Methodological and Scientific-Practical Work of the State Expert Center.
“The Center stands for the development of the clinical trials field and carries out continuous educational, methodological, and informational and explanatory work with stakeholders. Awareness of medical personnel involved in conducting clinical trials is a huge investment in the quality of their conduct. Our professional development seminars for doctors are an opportunity to gain not only valuable practical knowledge but also an additional 10 professional development points for your professional portfolio,” emphasized the benefits of the training Andrii Halstian, a leading specialist of the Agency.
He urged people to follow the announcements and join the Center's other thematic trainings in line with its areas of activity.
The next CPD event with credit points is planned for 20 December. It will be devoted to a new topic – standards in the healthcare system. In particular, we will discuss the methodology for developing medical technological documents based on evidence-based medicine and clinical patient pathways in healthcare facilities. We invite heads of healthcare facilities, doctors and other interested persons.
