Nextrials, Inc., a leader in clinical research software and services,
will participate in an integration demonstration between its PrismTM,
an award-winning clinical trial electronic data capture technology, and
electronic health records (EHR) platforms used within healthcare systems
at the 11th Annual IHE North America Connectathon, being held January
11-15 at the Hyatt Regency Chicago. The Connectathon is the healthcare
IT industry’s largest interoperability testing event dedicated to
establishing standards that address specific clinical needs in support
of optimal patient care.
“Nextrials’ continued support of the Connectathon underscores our
commitment to the development of a national IT standard for healthcare
information”
One of the earliest and leading proponents for EDC and EHR integration,
Nextrials recently completed the industry’s first pilot study where
real-time, live patient data from multiple sites was collected from
electronic health records and shared by what had previously been two
separate data management platforms.
“Nextrials’ continued support of the Connectathon underscores our
commitment to the development of a national IT standard for healthcare
information,” noted Alan Arroyo, vice president of global sales and
marketing for Nextrials. “Through the Connectathon, we can demonstrate
the value of EDC-EHR integration and the cost benefit implications it
has for both pharmaceutical R&D initiatives and patient
healthcare-related programs.”
