This presentation covers the fundamental principles underlying the various compliance regulations and discusses their implications for system designers and integrators.
Electronic data capture and management systems for clinical research must support many kinds of research, including clinical trials, prospective observational studies, and retrospective "chart mining".Regulatory requirements for new drug and device trials are the most stringent and complex, but even the smallest investigator-initiated study in an academic health center or community hospital or clinic must comply with human subject protection regulations and professional ethical guidelines, and meet information security requirements such as the HIPAA Privacy and Security Rules. This presentation covers the fundamental principles underlying the various compliance regulations and discusses their implications for system designers and integrators.
