What's it like to work on the UK's biggest Covid-19 research trial?
The Clinical Research Podcast - A podcast by Research & Innovation
Scientists based in Nottingham research teams at Nottingham University Hospitals have recruited more than 600 patients into RECOVERY, the world's biggest clinical trial in hospitalised patients with COVID-19. As a result, they've contributed to the UK his efforts to find effective life saving treatments. However, the recovery trial has thrown up a number of questions from our clinical staff who were dealing with the unprecedented pandemic on the wards of Nottingham's NHS hospitals. For our latest research podcast Andrew Bennett spoke to senior clinical research nurses Lindsay Crate, Rebecca Bolton and Jack Squires, all from our specialist COVID-19 research team. They talk about the latest drug arms being used in the RECOVERY trial, how would staff can support the vital research and new age, and what research and innovation can do to help clinicians.
