Clinical Research
The Physicians and research staff at Nebraska Pulmonary Specialties have
a strong commitment to clinical research. A clinical research trial is a
scientific study that tests the effectiveness of a new medical treatment,
medication or device with volunteer patients. Patient volunteers receive
these investigational treatments under close supervision of a physician, our
research coordinators and the sponsor of the clinical trial.
All study treatments conducted at Nebraska Pulmonary Specialties have
completed phases in animal testing and early human testing. In these
clinical trials information is collected from physical examinations,
laboratory, radiology and other tests as well as volunteer evaluations
regarding the treatment effectiveness. The exams and tests are usually
provided at no cost to the volunteer. A detailed description of what is
expected of the patient volunteer will be given to you and the research
staff will go over together before the study is started. The choice to
participate is completely yours. If you do choose to participate, you will
be making an important contribution to the future of healthcare.
Please see our list of
current clinical trials. If you are interested in
participating, or if you would like to learn more, please feel free to call
our office (402-483-8612) and ask for one of our research coordinators.
Thank you for your interest in the Clinical Research Department at Nebraska
Pulmonary Specialties.
