Our telephone randomisation service uses automated response technology (sometimes called IVR or IVRS) to allow investigators to randomise patients using their telephone keypad. Key features are:
- 24 hours, 365 days a year availability

Whichever system you choose, you'll benefit from our high standards of service and attention to detail. Peer reviewers will be assured that randomisation was carried out centrally and randomisation data held independently from other patient records at the data-collection centre. See more information on the problems of using real envelopes to appreciate the advantages of centralised randomisation.
