Background Initial Goals: Consolidate Accomplish More
Why streamline? SILOS Efficiency Cross-coverage Transparency Data-driven decision making
clinical research = evidence-based practice Why streamline? clinical research = evidence-based practice It’s ironic that we do not incorporate data into more of our own internal processes? Data should drive: What trials we run What processes we need to reevaluate How we should structure our workflow When to hire additional staff
How to streamline? Create uniform processes Electronic workflow FIRST: Incorporate input from your team SECOND: Commit to a shared process Electronic workflow Your best insurance policy
How to streamline? Choose your tool Define your purpose
Choosing your tools Our Strengths Our Tools-REDCap Increasing… FULLY ELECTRONIC TRIALS Increasing… Compliance Accountability Workflow Efficiency Study Recreation Our Tools-REDCap Created at Vanderbilt Strong Collaboration Flexible Incorporated Query Resolution Model Incorporated Project Management Functions
REDCap in clinical trials Traditional Uses Inputting limited data sets for single center usage Additional Uses Running large, multicenter clinical trials Regulatory documentation Notes to file Personnel Information Electronic Signatures *Practically ALL documentation related to your clinical trial needs
REDCap in clinical trials THERAPY Documentation Organize contact information Store workflow checklists Document adverse events and assessments Store PI signatures verifying oversight of data
REDCap in clinical trials THERAPY Documentation Organize contact information Store workflow checklists Document adverse events and assessments Store PI signatures verifying oversight of data
REDCap- leading multicenter clinical trials FEAT Upfront Regulatory Documents Ongoing Regulatory Documents Remote Monitoring Data Resolution
Other REDCap uses Orientation and Training Screening Quantify your Workflow SOP’s (ie: collections of documents with multiple versions)
Other REDCap Uses Information collected during clinical care Data Parsing Information collected during clinical care Vanderbilt’s Research Derivative Database Current Clinical Trial Databases Research Retrospective Projects Peer Review Quality (QSRP)
REDCap and Research…. What’s next? Automated data into eDC systems Comprehensive eDC/CTMS systems Official “networks” with added efficiency EMR’s structured like databases Consolidation and shared resources
