Protocol Pressures: Understanding The Site Burden Index

Trials grow more complex while site resources stay stretched. This session explores the Site Burden Index, a quantifiable framework that measures operational demands protocols place on sites by considering site, clinical, data, and technology pressures. Calculate your capacity tolerance and realistic caseload limits, then use this common language for data-informed conversations with sponsors and CROs. Move from anecdotal complaints to structured dialogue: identify pressure points early, assess workload using practical tools, and develop strategies that improve execution for everyone.
