inclusion-exclusion criteria

The term 'inclusion-exclusion criteria' as it applies to the area of drug testing can be defined as ' The medical or social standards determining whether a person may or may not be allowed to enter a clinical trial. These criteria are based on such factors as age, gender, the type and stage of a disease, previous treatment history, and other medical conditions. It is important to note that inclusion and exclusion criteria are not used to reject people personally, but rather to identify appropriate participants and keep them safe'.
