Single source - triple flow: Structured electronic data capture for pancreatic surgery patients.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Advancements in clinical medicine depend on state-of-the-art healthcare analytics, which require patient data from electronic health record (EHR) systems and electronic data capture (EDC). We developed and implemented an independent, yet integrated EDC system (designated IMI-EDC) in a tertiary hospital. This system ensures that clinical data are available for patient care and research while complying with regulatory standards.

Methods

Until July 2025, more than 5000 patients were able to submit their medical history and health-related quality of l
