Decentralized trials require more than just technology. IQVIA Remote Research Clinicians offers a global network of high-quality, GCP-trained nurses, dietitians, and phlebotomists to provide compassionate protocol-required care to patients in their daily activity.
IQVIA provides mobile research clinicians worldwide, delivering specialized clinical research nursing capabilities. Our specialized clinicians conduct study visits in participants’ homes, work or community location, supporting protocol-required activities in a non-site setting. They collect data and specimens, and administer investigational products directly to patients.
Remote clinicians further serve as a liaison between the investigator site, study team, and clinicians. This service is available as a stand-alone offering or within a broader decentralized clinical trial solution. Our in-house network of healthcare professionals streamlines trial delivery for sponsors, sites, and patients.
Each clinician’s qualifications carefully match the study's clinical requirements. They’re trained on study-specific protocols, a process supported by dedicated project managers, ensuring a high standard of care across every visit.
IQVIA supports mobile clinical research by providing end-to-end infrastructure. Our services integrate DCT technology, logistics, and regulatory compliance, delivered by our specialized network of credentialed clinicians (including mobile research nurses and phlebotomists). Adopting a patient-centric approach, this network further supports patient convenience, increases access, and enhances retention.
IQVIA Decentralized Trials solutions are designed to scale and adapt to your study needs—whether small or large, local or global. We help extend geographic reach to access diverse populations and hard‑to‑recruit participants, supported by mobile care teams, including in‑home nurses and dietitians.
Across all study models, IQVIA provides consistent training and quality oversight to ensure visits meet protocol requirements. Built on global clinical operations and deep therapeutic expertise, IQVIA Decentralized Trials help address some of the most complex challenges in clinical research.
In this latest SCRS Talks podcast episode, SCRS explores the growing trend of remote clinicians and mobile services in the clinical research landscape. Join SCRS as they sit down with Eric Neeley, PhD, PMP Senior Director Research Nursing & Phlebotomy Solutions, to discuss what's working, what still needs work, what to expect from this emerging field and learnings from operationalizing this service.
IQVIA provides regulatory and operational expertise to allow participants to take part in clinical research remotely, supporting greater participant representation, particularly for patients with mobility limitations or those living far from traditional research sites.
Our Remote Research Clinician teams manage logistics for required supplies and equipment, including lab kits and ancillary materials. Part of an integrated approach, they work with IQVIA Laboratories and third-party laboratories to coordinate logistics and harmonize data across the study. Teams also develop patient- and site-facing materials, such as brochures and ICF home-visit language guidance.
Bring trials directly to patients to improve access and engagement, increase quality and shorten timelines.
Predict enrollment more accurately and increase the number of patients per site using data-driven patient recruitment solutions.
Clinical trials face increasing pressure to deliver new treatments to market faster. IQVIA Connected Devices accelerates trial outcomes with medical device recommendations that fit your clinical study, deliver cleaner data, and speed data collection and analysis with lower patient and site burdens.
