"Leadership competencies of a clinical trial project manager" is unique in that this qualitative inquiry research project not only explores the specific top leadership competencies of project managers involved in pharmaceutical clinical trials, but the concepts reviewed in this book are applicable broad spectrum to multiple professional fields. The proposed leadership framework combines elements of leadership competencies, project management competencies, personal competencies, and includes a review of the leadership types from the traits theory of leadership. The leadership concepts described are universal and can be applied to improve any leader's abilities. While this book focuses on clinical trial project managers, the concepts and best practices apply to all PMs within pharmaceuticals or in any other field. The derived PM competency framework is transferrable to PMs in numerous industries and may also provide applicable guidance to others, regardless of their profession. Ultimately, the expansion of the PM triangle is a useful concept that many will find interesting. Additionally, personal competencies can improve personal effectiveness, achievements, and actions. This project identified 5 themes to include (a) CTPM experience and knowledge, (b) leadership competencies, (c) leadership types (styles), (d) personal competencies, and (e) project management competency development (PMCD). The 5 themes identified are all critical to understanding the perspectives obtained from the study participants regarding leadership competencies to maximize efficiencies of research and development. The results of this study can (a) potentially assist new CTPMs, (b) provide a refresher for CTPMs seeking improvement, (c) provide support for project managers in general, and (d) may assist hiring managers in determining the leadership skills to seek. The results from this study may support the project, program, and portfolio managers from various industries to better understand the leadership competencies and the overall framework that support project management. At the same time, these 5 themes, interpreted in the broadest terms, may be helpful to you!

This is an unprecedented time for clinical research. The number and complexity of clinical research studies have increased significantly in the last decade. Individual participation in clinical research broadened, with an increase in diverse populations, diseases, and geographic settings. The successful execution of these studies, however, has been compromised by an international shortage of clinical research professionals, coupled with an appreciation of the growing number of core competencies necessary for performance. Developed over a decade ago, the Joint Task Force for Clinical Trial Competency (JTF) Framework outlines the knowledge, skills and attitudes that are essential for the safe and effective conduct of a clinical study. This framework has been used to develop professional pathways, trainings, and certification programs and has been extended internationally through translation.

This book provides conceptual information on the various processes involved in meta-analysis. It examines the importance of meta-analysis for the analyses of clinical data to draw a valid conclusion using suitable software. The initial sections of the book introduce meta-analysis, how to perform a systematic literature review (SLR), quality assessment of studies, extraction, and analysis of data. The subsequent section of the book contains information on advanced topics including, meta-regression, network meta-analysis, issues, mistakes, and future perspectives. In summary, the book provides a statistical method for combining the results of different studies on the same topic and resolving conflicts among studies. This book is written with the intent to allow a wide range of readers including students, researchers, and health care professionals, including physicians, nurses, pharmacists, and paramedical, and is also helpful for a beginner who would like to do a meta-analysis.

Critical care medicine is a dynamic and exciting arena where complex pathophysiologic states require extensive knowledge and up-to-date clinical information. An extensive kno- edge of basic pathophysiology, as well as awareness of the appropriate diagnostic tests and treatments that are used to optimize care in the critically ill is essential. Since our frst edition 7 years ago, new information crucial to the care and understanding of the critically ill patient has rapidly accumulated. Because this knowledge base crosses many different disciplines, a comprehensive multidisciplinary approach presenting the information is essential, similar to the multidisciplinary approach that is used to care for the critically ill patient. We have strived to provide this content in an easily digestible format that uses a variety of teaching tools to facilitate understanding of the presented concepts and to enhance information retention. To meet the demand to provide comprehensive and diverse education in order to und- stand the pathogenesis and optimum care of a variety of critical illnesses, we have subst- tially revised the prior topics in the frst edition with updated information. We have also markedly expanded the number of topics covered to include acute lung injury and the acute respiratory distress syndrome, an expanded discussion of the physiology and operation of mechanical ventilation, obstetrical care in the ICU, neurosurgical emergencies, acute co- nary syndromes, cardiac arrhythmias, role of whole body rehabilitation in the ICU, ethical conduct of human research in the ICU, and nursing care of the ICU patient.

Responses from research training needs surveys, session evaluations from research training workshops, and eLearning feedback collected between 2017 and 2019 from 7176 participants from across 153 countries were analysed. This analysis provided a range of research skills topics and subject areas that generated a core list of 98 potential essential research skills training themes. These potential themes were reviewed by health research experts and stakeholders through a Delphi consensus process to assess their relevance as an essential research skill.

Handbook for Clinical Trials of Imaging and Image-Guided Interventions is the first single-source, multi-disciplinary reference, based on the didactic sessions presented at the annual ‘Clinical Trials Methodology Workshop’ for radiologists, radiation oncologists and imaging scientists (sponsored by the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA)). It focuses on educating radiologists, radiation oncologists and those involved in imaging research with how to design and conduct clinical trials to evaluate imaging technology and imaging biomarkers. The internationally renowned contributors take a broad approach, starting with principles of technology assessment, and then move into specific topics covering the clinical trials of therapy and clinical research in imaging guided interventions including radiotherapy. They discuss the use of imaging as a predictor of therapeutic response, screening trial design, and the practicalities of how to run an efficient clinical trial and good working practices. Later chapters provide a comprehensive array of quantitative methods including: an introduction to statistical considerations in study design, biostatistical analysis methods and their role in clinical imaging research, methods for quantitative imaging biomarker studies, and an introduction to cost effectiveness analysis. Handbook for Clinical Trials of Imaging and Image-Guided Interventions will educate and prepare radiologists at all levels and in all capacities in planning and conducting clinical imaging trials.
