Clinical Research
Transforming Healthcare Through Clinical Research in Kenya
At CRK-NGO, we lead impactful clinical research in Kenya that addresses critical health issues in underserved communities. We focus on cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and non-communicable diseases (NCDs) to bridge health gaps and improve outcomes across the country. Moreover, our work empowers public health systems with practical, locally grounded solutions.
Why Clinical Research in Kenya Is Urgent
NCDs like diabetes, heart failure, and hypertension are growing rapidly in Kenya. Yet, access to quality care remains uneven. Therefore, our clinical research targets areas where the healthcare system is weakest. In doing so, we ensure no community is left behind.
Furthermore, our studies generate insights that help policymakers, clinicians, and caregivers make better decisions. As a result, patients benefit from faster diagnoses, more effective treatments, and healthier lives.
How CRK-NGO Leads Ethical, High-Impact Research
We design research that drives change, not just knowledge. Our projects follow a model that values:
Community Collaboration: We involve local voices from day one. Consequently, our research reflects real community needs.
Ethical Rigor: Every study complies with national and international research ethics standards.
Cross-Sector Partnerships: We work with hospitals, universities, and county governments to scale what works.
Actionable Outputs: We translate data into policies, programs, and clinical guidelines.
Our Key Focus Areas
Heart Health & Hypertension: We build evidence to prevent and manage cardiovascular disease, especially in underserved communities.
NCD Interventions: For example, we evaluate low-cost diabetes care models in public health clinics.
Health Systems Research: We explore how existing healthcare services can integrate NCD treatment effectively.
Community Engagement: We ensure that research processes are inclusive and culturally appropriate.
Health Data Systems: In addition, we support clinics with real-time data dashboards that inform treatment and planning.
Impact That Reaches the Ground
CRK-NGO doesn’t stop at research. Instead, we focus on impact. From training healthcare workers to advising county health teams, our work has practical outcomes. Therefore, our studies aren’t just insightful, they’re implementable.
Even though challenges persist, we keep working toward a healthier future through data-driven action.
