Healthcare is a multifaceted field dedicated to the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of illness, and the promotion of overall well-being. At the heart of advancing healthcare practices lies Clinical Research, a critical process that translates scientific discoveries into tangible improvements in patient care. Clinical Research involves studies conducted on human participants to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of new medical interventions, such as drugs, devices, and therapies. These studies, often referred to as clinical trials, are essential for developing evidence-based practices that enhance the quality of healthcare delivery.
