How Site eSource Completes And Extends The EHR To EDC Initiative

In the past decade, advancements have been made to automate data transfer from electronic health records (EHR) to electronic data capture (EDC) systems, yet challenges persist in achieving seamless integration. This study evaluates the efficacy of data transfer through two key dimensions: "Mappability", which assesses the extent to which EHR data can be directly mapped to EDC formats; and "Prevalence", which highlights that a significant number of community-based research sites, particularly outside oncology, still rely on non-EHR methods.

To address these issues, CRIO's Central eSource provides a centrally designed template that boasts over 90% data mappability and supports a diverse range of research sites. This innovative solution not only streamlines data collection but also enhances participation rates in clinical studies. Ultimately, while EHR-to-EDC integration has progressed, CRIO's Central eSource emerges as a vital tool for sponsors seeking effective, comprehensive integration across their study portfolios, thereby improving data accuracy and accessibility in clinical research.
