eShowcase: Nextrials and Vitalograph

Nextrials, Inc. (San Ramon, CA) is partnering with Vitalograph (Lenexa, KS, and Buckingham, UK) to deliver expedited access to pulmonary function data collected during clinical trials. The system works by closely integrating Nextrials' Prism clinical trial management system with the Vitalograph Spirotrac Centralized Spirometry System.

As a result, biotechnology and medical device researchers can quickly evaluate pulmonary lung function, potentially improving patient safety. For researchers, real-time access to study data also translates into enhanced workflow and efficiency. Ultimately, this results in reduced costs and quicker time to market for new therapies. As a result of the collaboration, sponsors have access to a single product that provides all relevant data including pulmonary function information, in real time across multiple test sites and multiple studies.
