Description
 

Introducing the WatchMinder2! Having trouble remembering daily chores? Wouldn’t you like to have a private reminder to take your medication, complete an important task or manage a medical condition? The stylish WatchMinder2 personal assistant is here to help!

Clinical Research
With its unique training and reminder modes, the WatchMinder2 is ideal for ensuring compliance for clinical trials and clinical research projects.

Several studies have been completed at the University of California, San Francisco Medical Center, Carnegie Melon University, and the Canadian Air Force, demonstrating the potential of the WatchMinder2 for compliance in behavioral research and in clinical trials research. Subjects in research studies have to comply with the protocol of the study. This is often a problem when the subject has a number of tasks to complete each day for the research project. This may include taking medication (MEDS), exercising (EXRCSE), recording data (WRITE) and collecting a speciman (BATHRM). As a discreet reminder tool, the WatchMinder2 is ideal in assisting compliance with these tasks.

The success of a study depends on subject compliance and The WatchMinder2 is an excellent compliance assistant. If you are interested in learning more about the use of the WatchMinder2 for research studies, please contact Eric Becker with WatchMinder sales. We offer bulk discounts for research studies and are able to work with most organizations to make their projects successful.

For an example of how the WatchMinder2 has been used in a research capacity, see: Miller, G., Cohen, S. and Ritchey, A. “Chronic Psychological Stress abd the Regulation of Pro-Inflammatory Cytokines:A Glucocorticoid-Resistance Model” Helath Psychology, 2002, Vol 21, No. 6, 531-541.
