Clinical Trials and E-Health: Impact of New Information Technology Applied to Clinical Trials (Including Source Data-Medical Records) and to Human and Drug Research

The aim of the round table was to estimate the impact of new information technology applied to clinical trials (including source data-medical records) and to human and drug research. First, an inventory was made of the development of these new technologies in the healthcare system. The second point developed was identification of expected benefits in order to issue guidelines for their good use and hazard warnings in clinical trials. Finally, the impact of these new technologies on the investigator as well as the project manager was analysed.
