EngagePro (ePRO)
Advanced study build and execution application that optimizes real-time, direct-from-patient data collection. The simple, natural interface enhances the patient experience while improving data quality. The system is designed to amplify the patient voice, accelerate outcomes, and achieve study goals with confidence.
The right technology to capture the right data at the right time
Built on a secure, cloud-based platform, ePRO makes it easy to create and deploy your own survey’s and view a functioning version of the design on multiple devices simultaneously. Key features include:
· Simple ‘drag and drop’ functionality with widget toolbox to build forms
· Dynamic and fully customizable page canvas
· Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools built into the designer
· Library of pre-built assessments
· Model assessment on multiple devices in real-time
· Auto generate specification documents
· Manage notifications and define scheduled exports
· Robust reporting and integration
1. Improved regulatory compliance and a trackable audit trail
An audit trail that details the reasons for change throughout your data collection is a powerful part of maintaining regulatory compliance. ePRO have an audit trail feature, while paper-based and spreadsheet often make it difficult to track data changes.
2. Error detection and prevention
Data entry mistakes resulting from human error are inevitable, but edit checks are completely absent in paper-based data collection methods. Although Excel formulas offer an elementary level of validation, missing or incorrect data may still be overlooked. This can result in the loss of significant time and resources in larger scale studies. Reading patients’ handwriting on paper forms can also be a struggle, so allowing them to enter their data electronically through an ePRO will significantly speed up the process and allow for data to be fed directly into the system, rather than manually entered by medical staff.
3. Flexible Reporting Options
Manual reporting is a huge drawback of paper-based data management. The more complex the report, the more difficult, time-consuming and costly the corresponding resources you’ll need to invest.
4. Enhanced Data Security
Potential data security risks represent an understandable concern across the clinical research industry. ePRO provide role-based security functionality, making permissions and user roles highly configurable to ensure that only authorized people within the study have access to the data which is relevant to them – a functionality which is close to impossible with paper or Excel-based questionnaires.
5. Multi-user and multi-role simultaneous data entry
Paper-based solutions do not allow multiple stakeholders to work with the same data simultaneously. Further, operating with multiple spreadsheets, documents, and versions can lead to discrepancies and misplaced data. With an ePRO solution, study subjects can also electronically access forms and input their data, thus giving them more control over their study participation and creating improved patient engagement.
