eConsent
Digital informed consent with real-time tracking, version control, and automated enrollment for clinical trials.
Overview
Clinion eConsent is an electronic informed consent platform designed for clinical trials. It replaces traditional paper-based consent processes with a digital workflow that supports faster patient enrollment, real-time oversight, and regulatory compliance. The platform is available in three deployment models: Site eConsent, Remote eConsent (virtual consent), and eConsent bundled with ePRO, giving sponsors and sites flexibility to match their study design and patient population.
The platform is suited for interventional, observational, decentralized, and hybrid trials, and supports both global and localized implementations. It integrates directly with Clinion's EDC system and connects with other clinical trial solutions including RTSM, eProtocol, eSource, CTMS, CSR Automation, and eTMF.
Deployment Models and Access
