RxTrials Communiqué - A Blog About Clinical Research

We were also using an Excel spread sheet for start up for many years to track our sites study sytart up process for numerous studies. This method became very inefficient. Recently our IT Department created a tracking system on SHAREPOINT that allows mulitple users to track documents realtime. We can also run montly reports on multiple metrics. We have a few glitches that we are working through. So far we are happy with this solution.

I have been a coordinator, monitor, trial manager and director of clinical until I eventually left to start my own business. We build CTMS and EDC systems designed to address the problems raised in this article. Our systems help map and streamline activities associated with trial start-up and day-to-day activities of managing trials. Feel free to contact me if you would like more information.
