Detailed explanation-1: -How does ResearchMatch work? Potential volunteers (or their parent/guardian/caretaker) complete a short registration form that asks some questions about who they are along with some optional health questions. Approved researchers search non-identifiable volunteer data to find possible matches for their studies.
Detailed explanation-2: -When a person decides to participate, he or she signs a consent form. This process is called informed consent, and it lasts as long as the person is in the study. In other words, a volunteer can change his or her mind and leave a study at any time.
Detailed explanation-3: -Clinical trials are scientific studies intended to assess the efficacy and/or safety of: drugs, medical devices, vaccines, therapeutic medical procedures, and diagnostic tests.
