eCOA: Product Support

Improve patient reported outcome data collection by streamlining documentation with proper eCOA training for researchers, site staff and patients.

eCOA, or electronic clinical outcome assessments, includes

  • Patient-Reported Outcomes (PRO)
  • Clinician-Reported Outcomes (ClinRO)
  • Observer-Reported Outcomes (ObsRO)
  • Performance Outcomes (PerfO).

These instruments often capture symptom severity, quality of life, and treatment satisfaction from patients, observers or clinicians.

Improve Patient experience

Safira is at the forefront of transforming patient-reported outcome data collection through advanced eCOA (electronic Clinical Outcome Assessments) research. Our research included instrument migrations validation (i.e. BYOD) and accessibility features.

Our work has been recognized and included in the FDA Patient Focused Drug Development Guideline #3 in 2023.

We work with eCOA vendors to apply industry best practices and regulatory requirements to assure their systems are ready for inspection.

Facilitate eCOA Integration with Expert Guidance

 

Safira provides specialized support to eCOA vendors, focusing on both product and development teams. This support encompasses detailed insights into the current regulatory environment and adherence to industry best practices, combined with targeted training modules. Our aim is to empower vendors with the knowledge and tools necessary to optimize their eCOA solutions, ensuring they meet the high standards required in clinical research today.

Boost Efficiency Through Advanced Technology

The adoption of eCOA tools has revolutionized data collection methods in clinical research, moving away from traditional paper-based questionnaires and in-person interviews which are often prone to errors and management difficulties. eCOA tools offer a more streamlined, error-reduced process and provide real-time feedback to researchers, which is critical in rapidly adapting and improving study protocols and treatments.

Enhance Accessibility with Remote Data Collection

 

A significant benefit of implementing eCOA tools by Safira is the facilitation of remote data collection. This capability is particularly valuable in scenarios where patients cannot make regular visits to clinical settings, such as during pandemics or for those in remote areas. Remote data collection not only ensures continued patient engagement regardless of physical location but also helps in maintaining the consistency and continuity of data across diverse patient populations.

Safira is committed to leveraging eCOA tools to not only streamline data collection and enhance the accuracy of clinical trials but also to broaden the accessibility and efficiency of clinical research globally.
