THE SOLUTION
OMOP (Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership) is a public-private collaboration, chaired by the FDA, which designed the OMOP Common Data Model (CDM), a standardized model for storing Real World Data (RWD), developed to facilitate the generation of scientific evidence through large-scale observational studies.
OHDSI (Observational Health Data Sciences and Informatics) is an international interdisciplinary collaboration that originated in 2014 whose purpose is to update the OMOP-CDM and develop open source IT tools to support OMOP-CDM such as Athena, Atlas, Achilles, Usagi, White Rabbit and Rabbit in a Hat (https://www.ohdsi.org/).
With hundreds of researchers from 30 countries and clinical databases for over 800 million patients worldwide, OHDSI enables a community of researchers to collaboratively generate observational studies to drive better health care decisions and care.
OUR SERVICES
We provide consulting on electronic data collection systems for non-profit clinical studies and disease registries based on
- Harmonization of a data source with international standard terminology aimed at integration into OMOP
- Installation of OHDSI tools for: characterization of source data, exploration and analysis of harmonized data and data quality control
- Support for the design of observational studies through OHDSI tools (e.g. ATLAS)
- Training for the use of OHDSI tools for data exploration and analysis
- Ordinary maintenance (system updates, architecture monitoring, etc.)
- Support for the automatic compilation of eCRFs (e.g. REDCap) with data from local information systems through integration with OMOP
