About us
Mi-Trial is a clinical trial companion system and app. It has been designed to meet the needs of both trial participants and those managing trials, with important benefits for the integrity of the trial that help all partners. There are two major components: the patient-facing app, and the portal from which the trial scheduling is managed.
- The app. This acts as a one-stop portal for all vital trial information, provides a schedule of trial visits that syncs with the subjects own smartphone diary, delivers reminders and information about visits at scheduled times, and has functions to store notes and information. It is safe and secure and can replace the multiple pieces of paper than trial participants need to file and use. With its smart scheduling and reminders it will help participants stick to visit schedules and follow important restrictions, reducing protocol deviations. Available for both Android and iOS.
- The portal allows flexible scheduling of study protocols, so that visit schedules can be automatically generated (and adjusted according to trial participant needs). Avoids scheduling errors and reduces deviations. Participants can be messaged via the portal, individually or in groups, which is more convenient for participants and saves staff time and effort.
The portal and app were developed by experts in trials design and delivery, working closely with experts in software design and usability. This combination of expertise gives Mi-Trial the flexibility and function required to meet the needs of trial participants and trial centre staff, as well as the usability required to make it an integral part of trial delivery. By improving the trials experience and protocol adherence for participants, this reduces visit errors and data wastage, saving time and costs for both trial centres and sponsors.
