Making RBQM Simple

Sponsors and CROs were clear at last week’s OPRA User Group meeting. They want us to keep “Making RBQM Simple”. They like the recent improvements we’ve made to OPRA, including:

·               Updated library functionality allowing clients to specify risk order.

·               Additional risk and control fields for greater customization and flexibility

·               Updated UI to allow for easy viewing of risk details, bulk insert, and bulk updates.

·               New functionality to delete and restore observation and action records.

Risk libraries are very important for several reasons, including capturing and re-using risk-related data and insights from previous studies. This could include risks related to a specific therapy area, geography, technology, or data collection. Knowing what worked well, and what didn’t, on previous studies reduces the likelihood and severity of similar risks occurring on your next study. It also increases the detectability (knowing the signals to look for). That enables earlier intervention when things start to go wrong, which has important implications for both data quality and patient safety.

Updating the UI and adding new functionality and fields may seem like small things, but they are indicative of what we believe differentiates us from the competition. That’s because we continue to develop OPRA to reflect the way Clinical Operations and Central Monitoring teams work, not force them to change their processes and procedures to fit a rigid application.

Great examples are the updates we’re making to OPRA’s Central Monitoring module later this year. They include enhanced filtering, improved study overviews, and increasing the drill-down capabilities into specific data sets. This will give Customers better clinical trial oversight, easier interpretation of the data, and the ability to drill down into data to uncover the root causes of problems at the study, site, and subject level.
