Abstract
The proliferation of many small clinical trials at the A. J. Siteman Cancer Center challenges us to collect electronic data in a cost-effective way. The Siteman Clinical Information Portal (SCIP) was created by customizing a previously-developed suite of browser-based form design tools. SCIP allows for the creation and management of data collection instruments by nonprogrammers and supports web-based data entry and editing. The core of the tool set is a form-writing engine driven by a simple model of databases that contain both form and item metadata. The items, valid response options, online edit checks, and data handling properties, are all elements in the data model. SCIP provides an audit trail, patient and protocol management tools and client-side validation rules. The design of SCIP allows the creation of a library of frequently used items, reducing the forms implementation effort. Access to the forms is then controlled with a note tab-based portal model which provides access controls and customization of the interface for each user. The portal also supports access to other web-based resources, e.g., electronic versions of protocols. SCIP executes under SAS/IntrNet ® on a Linux server.
