Participate sets a new standard for usability, integration, and cost effectiveness for electronic patient reported outcomes (ePRO).
OpenClinica announced Participate, a mobile, device-independent solution for engaging participants in clinical research. Participate broadens possibilities for clinical research, by making it easier to meaningfully engage patients and collect high quality, timely data from patients in a way that is convenient for them.
To date, OpenClinica has been known for its clinical trial electronic data capture software. The addition of Participate adds a friendly and effective way to engage patients directly in those same OpenClinica-powered clinical studies. Using Participate with OpenClinica EDC allows researchers to design participant-facing events, reminders, and assessments alongside clinical visits and CRFs, using OpenClinica's existing study build tools. All the clinical and patient reported outcomes data are captured in a single place. As data are submitted by study participants, their activities become part of the same regulatory compliant audit trail that tracks all clinical user activity. The data participants submit, are immediately available for review and analysis alongside CRF data from other sources.
