Objectives:
To investigate which and how many NDPBRN research-data items can be found in the EDR system
To assess the feasibility of using data in EDR system for clinical research study
Study Design and Results:Mapping between Two Data Resources:
(1) DIM a comprehensive content taxonomy for EDR system in general d
(2) Cancer Data Standard Registry and Repository (caDSR) is used for al
research study data annotations
Conclusions:
A large percentage
the data that dental
gather on a day-to-d
can potentially be u
research to improve
care, and to generat
knowledge
It will require future
about data quality,
accessibility, and th
suitability of EDR d
research
Motivations:
National Dental Practice-Based
Research Network (NDPBRN) is a
new research initiative by NIDCR
Research data collection is an
important aspect of NDPBRN research
process
Currently, most NDPBRN studies use
Case Report Form (CRF) to collect,
store, and enter research data manually
This manual process is not only time
consuming and costly but also delay of
data transmission and error prone Anecdotal evidence shows many
NDPBRN research data items exist in
an Electronic Dental Record (EDR)
system used by NDPBRN dental
practitioners during routine clinical
care
In addition, published study shows
over 79% of dental practitioners in the
US use a EDR system to manage
clinical information Reuse these EDR data can potentially
improve the efficiency of clinical
research and save money, resources
