Enhancing Registry Data Quality: Key Measures and Strategies
Registries play a central role in real-world evidence (RWE) studies by providing comprehensive, real-world data (RWD) on patient populations, treatments, and outcomes outside of controlled clinical trial settings. This data is invaluable for assessing disease progression, the effectiveness, safety, and utilization of medical interventions in everyday clinical practice, guiding healthcare decisions, and informing regulatory decisions.… Continue reading Enhancing Registry Data Quality: Key Measures and Strategies
Navigating Access to SNDS Data: A Guide for Researchers in France
In the domain of healthcare research and policy-making, access to comprehensive and high-quality data is essential for driving evidence-based decisions and improving patient outcomes. In France, one of the richest sources of healthcare data available to researchers is the Système National des Données de Santé (SNDS), or the National Health Data System. However, accessing and… Continue reading Navigating Access to SNDS Data: A Guide for Researchers in France
Harnessing the Power of AI: Revolutionizing Signal Detection in Drug Safety
Traditional methods of signal detection rely on manual review and analysis of large amounts of data, often resulting in delays and missed opportunities for early detection of signals. On the other hand, artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to enhance activities in pharmacovigilance leading to a much earlier detection of potential safety concerns. But how… Continue reading Harnessing the Power of AI: Revolutionizing Signal Detection in Drug Safety
