What's involved in Data Management?

What's involved in Data Management -
An Ongoing Series for Understanding ISO 14155 (2010)

Data management encompasses the span of time from the moment the case report forms walk in the door to the moment the final database is sent to the statistician. It involves all the activities of logging in the forms, preparing a database application to receive the data, designing in edit checks to protect against entry errors, entering the data, choosing between full and partial double-data entry, generating data queries to clean the data, validating the data, writing code for administrative reports, and exporting the data to the statistician's SAS program. Furthermore, it must be Part 11 compliant. All of this is necessary so the sponsor can claim data integrity. ISO/DIS 14155 (2009) makes it clear that that burden rests with the sponsor

In this e-conference we will discuss the “how-to” of implementing these steps.
