Welcome to Clinical Trial Confidential.

We believe the clinical trial industry lacks a platform for open, transparent conversation. This lack of transparency inhibits progress. In this industry, that means patients are the ones that suffer.

Here you can choose to register an account, post anonymously or both. It is our hope that the ability to post anonymously will help foster useful conversation by allowing users to express their opinions without fear of retaliation, fear of appearing ignorant and otherwise allowing users to express opinions that may be contrary to their employer or that their position may not permit.

We believe great ideas should stand on their own merit and not the credentials of their author.

We hope these values will foster an environment of collaboration.

TRDs?

Temperature Recording Devices (TRDs such as TempTales, ElPro Libero, etc) are super important if having to transport drug within an institution or organization. 

Where do you get them? Our pharmacy does not have them and the Googles suggest wild price tags.

Has anyone had luck with sponsors either shipping some for use or passing through the cost?

Thanks!

Something like this works. You can start and stop the time and then print a report.

For our ambient monitoring, we purchased the following: https://www.lascarelectronics.com/easylog-el-sie-1

It is inexpensive, and simple to use. We purchase a new device with calibration certificates each year (purchased separately), as it's more cost efficient to do it this way than to add these devices into our annual calibration service. I have not attempted to get this reimbursed or paid for specifically by the sponsor, however I do justifying this cost (along with our refrigerator/freezer temperature monitoring)  into the overall start-up costs when negotiating the budget.
