Quality procedure(s) used | Data from the database are collected directly by physicians and downloaded anonymously. Data is directly entered in the practice during physician-patient contact using the Crossway medical software, which is the main working tool for physicians. All collected information is coded with its own nomenclature in database software format. No plain text is transmitted. No action is taken regarding participating physicians' practices, either through the software or studies conducted. Quality control is carried out at each significant data integration step. Local data is first sent through local CSD servers via secure FTP protocols in compressed file format. Collection is carried out daily. Data is uploaded to an Oracle server and then automatically cleaned and checked. Quality control is qualitative and based on volume. The database is then transmitted to an SAS server available to data managers and biostatisticians, so that data may be analysed. |
