Coding professionals are going to feel really at home with this product.”

	Coding is a unique and necessary process required by regulators during clinical trials or when monitoring the safety of approved products. Regulatory agencies require that adverse events be coded against the MedDRA dictionary, and that medications be coded against the WHO Drug dictionary. The coding process is performed by specialist medical professionals, who must ensure consistent and accurate decisions based on the content of the source term, any relevant related data, and prior decisions for the trial or drug project.

	The OmniComm AutoEncoder provides a modern and sophisticated tool for performing these coding activities. Out of the box, AutoEncoder is fully integrated with OmniComm’s TrialMaster® product for Electronic Data Capture, and its open interfaces also allow for integration with any third-party EDC or safety reporting system.

	“We are confident that our cutting-edge coding solution will be well received by the industry,” said Stephen Johnson, president and CEO of OmniComm. “AutoEncoder deploys the latest in technology and intuitive design. We’ve leveraged our previous 10 years of experience offering coding solutions and aligned this new technology to match the changing industry regulations. The result is a functionally rich, easy-to-use, innovative solution that is fully integrated with our TrialMaster EDC solution and easily integrated with third-party EDC and safety systems.”
