Evaluating the Impact of Electronic Health Record to Electronic Data Capture Technology on Workflow Efficiency: a Site Perspective.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Clinical trial data is still predominantly manually entered by site staff into Electronic Data Capture (EDC) systems. This process of abstracting and manually transcribing patient data is time-consuming, inefficient and error prone. Use of Electronic Health Record to Electronic Data Capture (EHR-To-EDC) technologies that digitize this process would improve these inefficiencies.

Objectives

This study measured the impact of EHR-To-EDC technology on the data entry workflow of clinical trial data managers. The primary objective was to compare the speed and accuracy of the EHR-To-EDC enabled data entry method to the traditional, manual method. The secondary objective was to measure end user satisfaction.

Materials and methods

Five data managers ranging in expe
