Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/tc4h74/eclinical) has announced the addition of the "eClinical Solutions Market by Products, Services, Buyers & Delivery Modes - Global Forecast to 2018" report to their offering. The growth of the eClinical solutions market is primarily triggered by factors such as, growth in the number of clinical trials, increasing government pressure to reduce the cost and time spent on clinical trials, government funding for conducting clinical research, and significant investment on research and development by pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical companies for drug development. However, factors such as the high cost of implementation of eClinical systems and scarcity of a skilled workforce for conducting clinical trials are restraining the growth of the eClinical solutions market. In this market, various factors such as the increasing adoption of cloud computing technology for delivering eClinical solutions and rapid growth in clinical trial outsourcing to CROs (clinical research organizations) based in developing countries such as China, South Korea, and India are presenting new growth opportunities for eClinical solution vendors. Moreover, companies are increasingly adopting the strategy of integrating two or more eClinical systems, to strengthen their footprint in the global eClinical solutions market. In this report, the global eClinical solutions market is broadly segmented into two categories, namely, products and professional services. The products market is further classified into clinical data management systems (CDMS)/electronic data capture (EDC), clinical trial management systems (CTMS), electronic clinical outcome assessment (eCOA), randomization and trial supply management (RTSM), safety solutions, and others. The others segment includes core lab integration systems, regulatory information management services, and coding systems.

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/ln45r7/clinical_trial) has announced the addition of the "2014 Report on the International Clinical Trial Management System Market - Trends and Forecast to 2019" report to their offering. TMS is primarily employed to manage large amount of data involved in a clinical trial including planning, preparation and reporting. CTMS also provides data to a business intelligence system. Increasing R&D investment in pharmaceuticals, life science and clinical research industries, rising prevalence of diseases and increased clinical research outsourcing are key growth drivers for the CTMS market. In addition, integration of CTMS with a Hospital Information System (HIS) provides more accurate and time saving documentation over paper based information systems. On the other hand, long approval time for clinical trials and difficulties related to recruiting and enrolling patients for clinical trials are some of the major concerns for the industry. Approval from Institutional Review Board (IRB), contract and budget negotiation and approval, availability of appropriate patient population and protocol design and legal review are major factors that delay a drug approval process. Similarly, increasing regulatory requirements in many countries has resulted in increased complexity for clinical trial protocols.

North American Healthcare Cloud Computing Market by Applications, Deployment, Service, Pricing & End Users - Forecast to 2018
M2 - Tue Mar 18, 3:55AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/n3b3nc/north_american) has announced the addition of the "North American Healthcare Cloud Computing Market by Applications, Deployment, Service, Pricing & End Users - Forecast to 2018" report to their offering. The significance of cloud computing is expected to increase in the healthcare industry. The healthcare industry is facing increasing pressure to lower the costs associated with providing healthcare; adopt new systems that support electronic medical records (EMR); and share data in a quick and secure manner with other healthcare providers and government agencies. The need to reduce costs in the healthcare industry ecosystem is a key factor that is increasing the adoption of cloud computing. Moreover, cloud computing can help healthcare organizations to share information stored across disparate information systems in real time and enable the IT staff to attend to more critical tasks, which results in an increase in productivity and cost-efficiency. The cloud-based Clinical Information Systems softwares market is the fastest growing segment in the North American Healthcare cloud computing market, by application. The rapid growth of this market can be attributed to factors such as federal pressure to convert all paper-based records into digital forms, increasing healthcare costs, and increased awareness about the benefits of cloud computing. However, information such patient records, medical imaging data, and prescription records are to be kept confidential. Thus, the security concern over the transfer of such information on cloud is hindering the adoption of cloud computing in the healthcare sector. In the CIS market, the EMR market is expected to grow at the highest CAGR. The high growth of this segment is attributed to the implementation of the HITECH Act, which has outlined the plans for the adoption of electronic health records. The North American healthcare cloud computing market has witnessed the highest deployment of applications on private clouds. A private cloud provides a dedicate network and infrastructure which is exclusive to one client. This increases the security of data being transferred on the cloud, which is the prime requirement in the healthcare industry. The SaaS application accounted for the largest share of the North American healthcare cloud computing market, by services. However, the market for IaaS is growing at a higher rate, owing to the increasing need to fill the gap between existing and required infrastructure without incurring significant expenses. The cloud computing market is highly fragmented, with none of the players accounting for a significant share of the market. The companies in this market focus on growth strategies such as client acquisitions; agreements, partnerships, collaborations, and alliances; new product launches; acquisitions; and others (fund raising, event participation, marketing and promotion, expansion, and educational promotion) to increase their customer base.
