Remote Based Monitoring (RBM) is technology that allows for remote access to data which has application for use in clinical studies. Melissa Fassbender, Outsourcing Pharma.com, recently published an article about RBM. Fassbender gave details where Propeller Health is partnering with GlaxoSmithKline to make a sensor used with a dry powder inhaler. The sensor automatically monitors the patient’s use, date and time, for clinical trial data.

Fassbender’s article mentioned that one benefit to RBM is having increased accessibility to data and this convenience will likely keep clinical trials running where in the past, people may have dropped out due to inconvenience. Remote Based Monitoring is expected to grow and CROs implementing it first may have a competitive advantage.
