Episode 59: Clinical Data Quality

In this QCast episode, Jullia and Tom look at how clinical data quality is shaped from study set-up through collection, review and integration. They discuss why clear definitions, well-designed data flows and proportionate quality control matter, particularly when trial data move across multiple systems or vendors.
Key Takeaways
- Clinical data should be judged by whether they are fit for the decisions and analyses the study needs to support, rather than by cleanliness alone.
- Quality problems often begin upstream. CRF design, data definitions, mappings and study instructions can create issues that later queries cannot fully correct.
- Review effort should focus on critical data and recurring patterns. Trend review can help identify process problems that isolated record checks may miss.
