REDCap
Web-Based Application for Building and Managing Online Clinical Research Databases and Survey Forms
CODE • Comprehensive Oncology Data & Engineering • Cancer Center Shared Resource
REDCap is a 3rd party, browser-based Electronic Data Capture (EDC) software and workflow methodology for designing clinical and translational research databases.
REDCap is a mature, secure web application for building and managing online surveys and databases. Using REDCap's streamlined process for rapidly developing projects, you may create and design projects using 1) the online method from your web browser using the Online Designer; and/or 2) the offline method by constructing a 'data dictionary' template file in Microsoft Excel, which can be later uploaded into REDCap. Both surveys and databases (or a mixture of the two) can be built using these methods.
REDCap provides automated export procedures for seamless data downloads to Excel and common statistical packages (SPSS, SAS, Stata, R), as well as a built-in project calendar, a scheduling module, ad hoc reporting tools, and advanced features, such as branching logic, file uploading, and calculated fields.
With Huntsman Cancer Institute's (HCI) Comprehensive Oncology Data & Engineering (CODE) Shared Resource implementation of REDCap, you have a dedicated support team to help you transfer, import and export your data. They'll help from start to finish, to build questionnaires and manage your data.
