Towards Computer-aided Analysis of Readability and Comprehensibility of Patient Information in the Context of Clinical Research Projects
Abstract
Clinical trials aim to examine the safety and efficiency of novel procedures such as certain medication, specific treatments, or medical devices. They constitute a compulsory requirement for the marketing authorization of these trial objects. As such, they are a vital part of a modern and innovative health care system. However, clinical trials (CT) also involve risks for the participant s health.
