We’re always helping our clients avoid data horrors, during the Halloween season and beyond.
High-quality data is critical to clinical trial success. Yet the road to successful outcomes is mired with potential challenges, pitfalls, and unforeseen circumstances.
From patient compliance to data harmonization, ensuring data integrity at every step is the key to successful clinical trials.
Here’s how to avoid clinical trial data chaos:
📱 Start at the source: Use ePRO Instead of Paper Diaries
While paper diaries might seem like a money-saving strategy in the short term, comparison studies have shown that patient compliance and data quality can be 5X greater when using electronic collection methods versus paper.
IVRCC ePRO systems deliver higher quality data, fewer errors, shorter timelines and lower costs for clinical studies.
🧩 Make Sure All the Pieces of the Data Puzzle Fit Together
Users, sites and subjects can enter data using either IVR or IWR in the same application, according to their needs or preferences. All data entered integrate directly with EDC systems for immediate analysis and real-time reporting.
These integration features promote a real-time understanding of up-to-the-minute study status for pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device sponsors to use when making critical decisions and adjustments during trials. Clients who choose IVR Clinical Concepts for their IVR/IWR solutions are rewarded with flexible data input in globally-available applications that put key decision-making information at their fingertips.
📊 Set Yourself Up for Success with a Chart Review
Reviewing real world data can help save money and time, providing key insights to plan a study’s development protocol. These studies evaluate Real World Data that already exists in the subject’s medical records, instead of data from clinical research.
Often these data interactions can reveal multifaceted relationships beyond what highly controlled clinical trials may uncover. IVRCC has developed applications to comprehensively accommodate incomplete, lost, and inadequate records.
💻 Give Yourself the Ability to Adapt and Adjust
Having real-time study information at your fingertips keeps your trial agile, increasing speed and reducing trial cost.
Real-time reports enable study staff to make quick decisions to keep trials on track.
