Data Capturing

This program will explore the evolution of Clinical Data Management from a paper case report form (CRF) process to the “real time” data review capable world of electronic data capture (EDC). We will review the specific regulations that govern the electronic data capture and electronic signature requirements, and examine the changing role of the Data Manager in an environment where the technology drives the process. Although the basic data management principles remain the same, for example good CRF design and ensuring the integrity of the data, the timelines and tasks surrounding today’s EDC are not interpreted exactly as the paper CRF process has previously dictated.

The understanding of how the technology has changed the process will enable today’s Data Managers to move forward in the discipline and ensure their place as viable members of the clinical study team. As electronic data capture utilized as patient e-source or eCRF becomes more the routine, it is important that the CDM be fully aware of the capabilities of the EDC application in order to ensure a comprehensive data management component in the clinical trial conduct.
