We offer tailor made text messaging (SMS) services to assist with the smooth running of clinical trials. Notoriously, one of the problems associated with running clinical trials is contacting subjects and collecting data remotely on a regular basis. Our systems will allow you to contact your subjects when you want to, and if necessary receive a time and date stamped response. These solutions are not only cost effective, but enhance subject response rates and validity of data, by utilizing a familiar and accessible form of everyday technology.
According to the Ofcom UK Communications Market Review (2010) the numbers of text messages sent by mobile users continued to climb, growing by nearly one-third to 104.4 billion messages in 2009 (representing an average of over four a day for every person in the UK), a faster rate of growth than in 2008 (24.8%) but on a similar level to annual growth between 2005 and 2007.
