Clinical and Translational Research Needs

Goals: 1. Rapidly convert advances in basic science to

improvements in patient care

2. Relay findings from clinical studies back to bench for further refinement of the disease management process

To achieve these goals, researchers need to integrate diverse and complex biomedical data sets to co-analyze and visualize the data to reduce the barrier b/w basic science and clinical

research

Clinical and Translational Research Needs

How were these goals achieved in the past? It was possible to acquire the clinical data manually

by reviewing an individual patient’s data from a hospital’s EMR

Time consuming and redundant process Not feasible for studies with large patient populations Poses significant privacy and confidentiality risks to

patients

Research Needs

1. Review Preparatory to Research Are there enough patients to conduct research? Applies to prospective or retrospective studies Defined criteria / haven’t defined it yet, but have an idea Count of patients is sufficient

2. Prospective/Retrospective studies Recruit patients / Need to get clinical data

3. Medical record data mining studies Need historical clinical data for patients matching criteria Survey identified patients for additional information

Quality Improvement

It is possible to do analysis and compare the performance within one hospital as well as across hospitals if data is available in one central location

Can identify the process improvement steps and can implement those to improve the patient care

Enormous opportunities to improve patient care using QC/QI initiatives

CIDER

Scenarios - 1

Review preparatory to research “I can get a grant to conduct a research study using

historical clinical data to find out the relationship between changes in serum PSA values and survival following treatment for Hormone Refractory Prostate Cancer (HRPC). How do I find out whether there are enough patients?“

Using CIDER, one can find out the total number of patients satisfying the above criteria quickly without getting any formal approvals for the study.

Scenarios - 2

Prospective studies “I am planning to conduct a research study/protocol on

the possible connection between Diabetes and Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) and I need at least 100 patients aged between 40 and 65, who have had ACS and had been diagnosed with Diabetes prior to ACS.”

Using CIDER, PI can find out the total number of patients satisfying the above criteria quickly without getting any formal approvals for the study.

Once the study is approved by IRB, CIDER can provide the patient details required to contact the patients.

Scenarios - 3

Retrospective studies “I am planning to conduct a research study on the

possible connection between Diabetes and Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) and I need at least 100 patients aged between 40 and 65, who have had ACS and had been diagnosed with Diabetes prior to ACS.”

Using CIDER, PI can find out the total number of patients satisfying the above criteria quickly without getting any IRB approvals for the study.

Also, can obtain de-identified data with no IRB approvals.

Clinical Data

Demographics• name, address, race, gender, phone number

Visits • age, patient type, facility, diagnosis code, procedure code

Labs • age, collection time, facility, lab test name, specimen type (e.g. serum vs

CSF glucose), result Medications

• age, duration, frequency, medication, route & form • Aspirin 75 mg tablet, once a day by mouth (PO), indefinitely

Allergies • allergen type, allergy reaction, sensitivity, severity, type, onset date

Vitals • age, body site, facility, measurement, observation, value and units

Document• age, document content, document name, facility and physician

What and how much data is in CIDER?

• Data since 1993

• ~4.7 million patients

• ~25 million visits

• ~68 million lab results

• ~17 million medication orders

• ~12 million scanned documents

• ~140, 000 allergies (2009)

• ~50 million text documents

• ~130 million vitals

Data Security Auditing User responsibilities

User Responsibilities

Follow established rules and procedures Obtain HIPAA/IRB approval if necessary Do NOT share user IDs and passwords Sign the CIDER data confidentiality agreement

after completing the training and follow the agreement

User access will be revoked in case of failure to follow the rules

User Responsibilities

Safeguard patient privacy and protect clinical data sets Escalate issues/questions to CIDER Administrator Download identified data only to approved and secure

location(s) Do NOT download, move, or copy identified/limited

data sets to USB drives, CDs, DVDs, other removable devices, or servers/workstations/desktops/laptops on unsecure networks

In case of questions, please email the CIDER Honest Broker at honestbroker@bmi.wustl.edu OR call the CIDER Help Desk @ 362-8853

User Responsibilities

What to do if data is lost or compromised?

If you are a CIDER user, and you have encountered an event through which you think e-PHI (Electronic Protected Health Information) has been compromised, then please follow the procedures listed below.

If you are a Washington University user

Please fill-out an incident report using an incident report form from the following link. Washington University Incident Report Form and email it to incidents@wusm.wustl.edu

If you are a BJC user

If you are a BJC user, and you have encountered a breach of ePHI (electronic Protected Information) e.g. laptop, USB, device lost or stolen, virus attack on research server or theft of data, please contact BJC Information System Security Services at iss@bjc.org and complete an incident report at the following link.

Session Timeout

The CIDER session is left alone with no user actions for 10 minutes, the system will log you off

A warning message is displayed after 8 minutes After 2 minutes of the warning, system will log

out the user This is a security measure Never leave sessions open without logging out

What is a project in CIDER?

A project is a clinical or translational research study or a quality assurance/improvement activity that requires CIDER

Data Privileges

Anonymized: Data that has no physical link to data that can be used to identify an individual’s identity.
