Targeted Source Data Verification
Ergomed’s Risk-Based Clinical Monitoring and Source Data Verification Approach for Data Integrity
Ergomed ensures the highest data integrity and patient safety standards through our risk-based clinical monitoring and Source Data Verification (SDV) practices. SDV is a critical process in clinical trials that ensures the data collected are accurate, complete, and verifiable against the source documents. We compare data entered into case report forms or electronic data capture systems with the source data to confirm their accuracy and reliability.
Why is SDV Important?
Patient Safety
SDV helps ensure patient data are accurate, which is crucial for making informed decisions about patient safety.
Data Reliability
Verifying data against source documents ensures that the data used for analysis are reliable and can withstand regulatory scrutiny.
Regulatory Compliance
SDV is a regulatory requirement mandated by agencies like the FDA, EMA, and ICH to ensure the integrity of clinical trial data.
Ergomed’s Risk-Based Clinical Monitoring Approach
To ensure your data’s accuracy and integrity, Ergomed employs a risk-based clinical monitoring approach. The FDA, EMA, ICH, and other regulators increasingly prefer and recommend risk-based monitoring in clinical trials. It ensures the optimization of monitoring efforts, complete oversight, and early identification of risks to patient safety or data reliability.
Our Risk-Based Monitoring Strategies Can Include the Following:
-
We utilize advanced statistical methods to identify data trends and outliers. This helps us pinpoint potential issues early, allowing for timely interventions and ensuring that your trial data remain accurate and reliable.
-
Our team reviews trial data remotely to identify issues early, allowing for timely interventions. This approach saves time and resources and ensures that potential issues are identified and addressed promptly, regardless of the trial’s location.
-
Monitoring the data captured by trial sites remotely between visits to ensure compliance and data accuracy, which in turn may reduce the need for frequent on-site visits.
-
Our strategy can focus monitoring efforts on critical data points and high-risk sites, allowing us to use resources efficiently. This approach can reduce the overall monitoring burden and ensure that the most crucial aspects of your trial are closely monitored, enhancing data integrity and patient safety.
-
This strategy involves conducting in-depth reviews triggered by specific events or risk indicators. For example, if a site consistently reports data that deviate significantly from the expected results, our system automatically triggers a more thorough review. This allows for a targeted approach to potential issues, ensuring they are identified and addressed promptly.
