E-consent: Optimizing Consent Workflows through Automation

E-consent is becoming increasingly important in healthcare workflows, offering a more systematic and interactive way of presenting consent forms to patients. It allows for a step-by-step presentation of consent forms, tracking patient comprehension and providing multimedia tools such as audio narrations and videos to enhance understanding. This digital option improves patient comprehension, expedites the consent process, and allows patients to review documentation at their own pace. E-consent also helps in improving patient recruitment levels and retention in clinical trials, leading to better patient satisfaction and cost efficiency for trial sponsors.
