Due to the increasing use of electronic data capture systems for clinical research, the interest in saving resources by automatically generating and reusing case report forms in clinical studies is growing. OpenClinica, an open-source electronic data capture system enables the reuse of metadata in its own Excel import template, hampering the reuse of metadata defined in other standard formats. One of these standard formats is the Operational Data Model for metadata, administrative and clinical data in clinical studies. This work suggests a mapping from Operational Data Model to OpenClinica and describes the implementation of a converter to automatically generate OpenClinica conform case report forms based upon metadata in the Operational Data Model.
由于临床研究中电子数据捕获系统的使用日益增加,通过在临床研究中自动生成和重复使用病例报告表来节省资源的兴趣也在不断增长。OpenClinica是一个开源电子数据捕获系统,它能够在其自身的Excel导入模板中重复使用元数据,但这妨碍了以其他标准格式定义的元数据的重复使用。这些标准格式之一是临床研究中元数据、管理数据和临床数据的操作数据模型。这项工作提出了从操作数据模型到OpenClinica的映射,并描述了一个转换器的实现,该转换器可根据操作数据模型中的元数据自动生成符合OpenClinica的病例报告表。
