Abstract

The number of hospital-based clinical trials is resulting in the growing involvement of nurses. A cross-sectional study in five hospitals involving 60 nurses assessed the clinical research activities, the time allocated and the training level. The results suggest that identifying specific nursing time devoted to clinical research may influence the activities carried out. Improving the definition of these activities could facilitate their integration into nursing practice.

Keywords: clinical research nurse; clinical trial; cross-sectional study; essai clinique; infirmier de recherche clinique; nursing role; rôle infirmier; étude transversale.
