Streamline Electronic Patient-Reported Outcome (ePRO) Data Collection with Online Forms
Simplify your Electronic Patient-Reported Outcome (ePRO) data collection
Patient-Reported Outcome (PRO) activities are a critical element of clinical trials, helping to gauge the effectiveness of medical products based on direct patient feedback. Traditionally, PRO data collection has relied upon paper forms and physical diaries, resulting in frequent inaccuracies, flawed compliance measures, and costly delays. Fortunately, the emergence of electronic Patient-Reported Outcome tools enables clinical trial teams to work more efficiently and effectively, by allowing patients to enter PRO data directly into online platforms, thus eliminating the need for physical documentation and manual processing – saving time and budget, while improving data integrity and compliance.
Digital and online forms provide teams managing ePRO activities with an efficient, intuitive means of data collection. With GoFormz, you can easily digitize and securely share your forms online, with our HIPAA-secure edition. These online ePRO forms can host a variety of powerful digital fields and features, to simplify and improve patient data capture. For example, online patient questionnaires can be easily equipped with Conditional Logic, ensuring critical information is captured correctly and completely prior to form submission. Similarly, Conditional Logic can be used to make fields dynamically Required, ensuring critical authorizations and information are input before a form is completed.
Your ePRO forms can also be equipped with the following fields and features to streamline and improve data entry:
Instant calculations: With Automatic Calculations, your ePRO forms can instantly complete calculations and provide totals, eliminating opportunities for user error.
Drop Down menus: Drop Down menus present patients with a collection of options to choose from when completing ePRO documents. Based on a Drop Down menu selection, your form can instantly populate corresponding fields with highly accurate data pulled from a Data Source. For example, if a patient were to select the name of the product being trialed, your form could instantly populate relevant product details that a patient might otherwise not be able to fill in themselves.
Digital Signature boxes: Simplify authorizations with electronic Signatures. Your digital Signature boxes can even be made Required, ensuring a signature is collected before a form can be submitted.
Barcode Scanning: With Barcode Scanning, your device’s camera can easily scan the barcode of a product, or another code, and instantly populate corresponding fields with product information.
...and so much more!
Links to your online ePRO forms can be easily shared with patients anywhere for them to fill out and complete. Once completed, submitted ePRO forms and input data are available in real-time for review and processing – eliminating the need for manual form delivery and dramatically accelerating the ePRO data collection process. With ePRO data made instantly available, medical professionals and clinical trial teams can immediately run reports across their ePRO data, address product concerns, and follow up with their patients.
Leveraging GoFormz integrations, completed ePRO forms can be used to instantly update connected systems and databases with highly accurate data, metadata, and completed form PDFs – increasing accessibility to ePRO data and documents.
