Oftentimes, during a site visit, a Clinical Research Associate will update information and data in the system if they observe important issues or adverse events. Unfortunately, with many CTMS systems available today, not all of those changes will wind up in the final site visit report, creating silos of information or even worse, loss of information and data that might prove critical to the trial results.

DZS Software has addressed this issue and built an all new Site Visit Report Tool feature that enables CRAs and Project Managers to author and review trip reports, while managing the workflow from first draft through final approval.  This new feature will enable clients to configure report templates based on visit type and country, and to integrate CTMS data directly into the trip report.  Unlike many other trip report authoring tools, the data entered by the CRA while creating the report is deeply integrated with the main features of the CTMS to reduce data redundancy.  Updates to system data elements commonly found in the trip report sections such as regulatory documents, issues, enrollment, SAEs and deviations are done while creating the report and do not need to be re-entered into other areas of the system.
