First paragraph (this article has no abstract)Most clinical studies use paper case record forms (CRFs) to collect data. In the Dutch multicentre observational study on biologicals we encountered several disadvantages of using the paper CRFs. These are delay in data collection, lack of overview in collected data, and difficulties in obtaining up-to-date interim reports. Therefore we wanted to create a more effective method of data collection compared to CRFs on paper in a multicentre study. |
