Clinical data management (CDM) is the act of collecting, storing, and preserving data that is crucial for clinical trials or other procedures as well as for the biotech and pharmaceutical industries. A clinical data management tool is used in clinical research to maintain track of the data from a clinical study. The process of gathering, integrating, and managing subject data in a way that complies with legal standards is known as Data management. As it results in the production of high-quality, dependable, and statistically complete data, clinical data management is a crucial component of clinical research and can be used to accelerate the process of getting a medicine ready for market. A paper-based or electronic data capture format is used to record the clinical information. Pharmaceutical corporations, contract research organizations, and IT firms all engage in CDM operations. A data repository, commonly referred to as a clinical data repository, gathers data from numerous sources and organizes it so that it is patient-centered.
Clinical investigations are fueling clinical data management. Web-based data collection tools enable faster data entry, reduced cost, format flexibility, and more response-set data collection, driving the clinical data management industry. Due to clinical data management's high productivity and efficiency, enterprises are expected to rethink their data management methods, supporting market growth. The surge in life science and clinical research spending and clinical study numbers also drives the clinical data management market. High-quality clinical data supports market growth in Oracle Clinical.
