In this free webinar, learn how direct data capture (DDC) represents a transformative step in clinical trials, addressing inefficiencies in traditional electronic data capture (EDC) systems. Attendees will gain insights into how a single platform that integrates DDC, EDC, electronic clinical outcome assessments (eCOA) and eConsent can simplify workflows, minimize redundant data entry and improve the experience for site staff and participants. The featured speakers will discuss how innovations in clinical trial technology should focus on streamlining processes for site staff and participants.
TORONTO, Jan. 14, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Over the past 20 years, electronic data capture (EDC) systems have reshaped clinical trials, yet they often fall short of delivering on their promises of speed, efficiency and patient centricity. Despite advancements, the burden on clinical trial sites has only grown.
In response to these challenges, direct data capture (DDC) technologies have emerged, marking a transformative shift in clinical trial execution. DDC is leading to a new era in data collection and management, streamlining the site experience, eliminating paper source documents and enhancing accuracy, efficiency and data integrity.
A single, scalable platform can help in integrating DDC, EDC, electronic clinical outcome assessments (eCOA) and eConsent and can offer remarkable benefits:
- Enhanced Experience for Site Staff and Participants: The platform can simplify workflows with intuitive interfaces, reducing redundant data entry and making the trial process more seamless for both participants and site teams
- Immediate, High-Quality Data Collection: By minimizing delays between data capture and analysis, the platform ensures timely access to accurate and reliable trial data, improving overall data quality
- Real-Time Monitoring: Adaptive trial designs and rapid decision-making can be supported by real-time insights, enabling more responsive and effective trial management
In this webinar, the expert speakers will explore strategies to prioritize site staff experience in technology development. They will discuss how thoughtful innovation can simplify processes and consider what more can be done to revolutionize the clinical trial experience.
Register for this webinar to discover how integrating DDC with EDC, eCOA and eConsent streamlines workflows, enhances data accuracy and improves site and participant experiences.
Join Dermot Kenny, CEO, STEM Healthcare (moderator); Megan Petrylak, Chief Operating Officer, ; Mathapelo Mafohla, Senior Clinical Data Management Project Manager, PPD; and Piper Darling, Associate Director, IT Patient Digital Solutions, Immunovant, for the on Thursday, January 30, 2025, at 11:30am EST (4:30pm GMT/UK).
