Medrio, Inc., and PHASTAR announced that they have partnered to leverage metadata surrounding electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePRO) for advanced data visualization, providing insight into patient compliance and burden.
Medrio, Inc. a leading provider of decentralized and eClinical technology to pharmaceutical, medical device, biotech, diagnostics, and animal health markets and PHASTAR, a global specialist biometrics clinical research organization (CRO) offering industry-leading data management, data science, statistical consulting, and clinical trial reporting services,announced that they have partnered to leverage metadata surrounding electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePRO) for advanced data visualization, providing insight into patient compliance and burden.
PHASTAR ran a pilot with 33 volunteers completing EQ-5D, a health-related measure of quality-of-life questionnaire, to understand how metadata may be used effectively to monitor ePRO data collection during a study. “Whilst sites may monitor compliance at the individual subject level, dat management teams can take a broader view. We looked at how the metadata surrounding the ePRO data can be used to monitor compliance, patient burden, and any anomalies that may ultimately impact the interpretation of the results,” explained Jennifer Bradford, Director of Data Science at PHASTAR.
The PHASTAR team used Medrio ePRO for initial data collection and Medrio’s Export API to funnel the ePRO and metadata into PHASTAR’s data visualization tool, PHIZUAL. “Data visualization provides data management teams the ability to monitor compliance and see any anomalies in real-time, ultimately providing the highest quality data reflective of the patient population as a whole rather than at the subject level,” detailed Bradford.
