CRISP Services for Study Teams

Clinical research continues to grow in stature, breadth and importance in terms of everyday medical practice.  As the quantity and quality of research continues to grow, it will become increasingly important for physicians to find a means of keeping up with an ever expanding and dynamic body of knowledge. Such a skill can only be developed through a basic understanding of what comprises valid, well-designed research as you contemplate the needs of your patients in the clinical setting.  The greatest challenge for investigators performing such studies is “how do I capture patients for my study while simultaneously carrying out my clinical duties?” Numerous articles in the emergency medicine lament the difficulties of capturing appropriate patients on a consistent basis while simultaneously attending to patient needs. This is where the CRISP program comes in.
