care and supervision Explanation: My suggestion as I understand the meaning of ליווי in this context: [the patient] will be under the (constant) care and supervision of a local expert. Another option might be will be followed up by a local expert, however I less favor this option -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 43 mins (2008-12-07 21:34:16 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I meant specialist and not expert. |

follow-up and monitoring Explanation: If it is a social worker or a counsellor, one uses different terms than if it is a specialist medical doctor. Case management is not necessarily a medical function. It can be undertaken by an occupational therapist or specialist nurse. Another possible term you might consider is clinical guidance. |

will be followed / under the care of Explanation: will be followed / under the care of the local care-provider / medical team / specialist / referring physician this is a common recommendation, particularily in study protocols, here in the US. many large centers offer treatments under study protocols but cannot provide follow-up when the pt returns to their home. many pts live too far away from the study center. however, the local care-provider (oncologist, cardiologist, etc.) will continue to follow the pt. should a complication develop, or a new problem arise that may be related to the study drug, these professionals usually contact the study center PI and decide whether or not to send the pt back to the study center for more treatment or for evaluation. in some cases, the local care-provider will even get compensation from the study budget. eytan |
