Clinical Events

What are clinical events? 

Clinical events refer to any significant occurrences related to a patient's health condition during the course of treatment, a clinical trial, or a medical observation. These events can include both adverse events (e.g., complications or side effects) and positive outcomes (e.g., recovery, improvement in symptoms). Clinical events are key data points used to assess treatment efficacy, monitor patient safety, and guide medical decision-making. 

Why are clinical events important? 

Tracking clinical events is vital for ensuring patient safety, improving treatment outcomes, and advancing medical knowledge. By systematically capturing and analyzing these events, researchers and healthcare providers can make informed decisions, mitigate risks, and optimize healthcare strategies.
