91 | REDCap MyCap REDCap Mobile App BioPortal - Biomedical ontologies | EDC (electronic data capture) | REDCap is a secure web application for building and managing online surveys and databases. While REDCap can be used to collect virtually any type of data, it is specifically geared to support online or offline data capture for research studies and operations. The REDCap Consortium, a vast support network of collaborators, is composed of thousands of active institutional partners in over one hundred countries who utilize and support REDCap in various ways. While REDCap can be used for simple one-off public surveys without storing data on third party servers, it excels for longitudinal data capture in multiple forms and for multicenter clinical studies. Projects can combine data capture in electronic Case Report Forms (eCRF) with automated survey invitations for PROMs. | +: license is free for non-profit research organisations +: feature rich, extended by the use of Bioportal onologies, API, integrations, extensions, apps for offline and personal data collection +: uses open data formats (.csv, .xml, .json ..) +: researchers can quickly spin up a project DB themselves +: multilingual surveys, longitudinal data collection, automation +: logging, validation, data quality tools & queries, granular user roles & rights allow for data collection in (multicenter) ICH-GCP compliant clinical studies +: in use in all large (Flemish) University Hospitals and 7800+ other research institutes +: widespread use allows for exchange of data, data dictionaries, reuse of projects, federated datacollection -: needs IT support to setup and maintain own server -: not open source | http://projectredcap.org/ | redcap@ugent.be redcap@uzgent.be | UGent UZ Gent | Institutional info | ||||||||||||||||||||
