Randomized Registry Trial
The Randomized Registry Trial-The Next Disruptive Technology in Clinical Research --Lauer & D’Agostino, NEJM, Sept 2013
Time for recruitment and costs were dramatically less in the randomized registry arm of the trial.
The incremental cost of the Thrombus Aspiration in ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction in Scandinavia (TASTE) trial was $300,000, or $50 for each participant who underwent randomization!
