Clinerion’s Patient Recruitment System (PRS) uses a hybrid cloud infrastructure to search patients’ electronic health records and identify eligible candidates for clinical research. PRS increases the efficiency of the clinical trial process by enabling patient search and selection of sites with real and complete information (no randomness, or guesswork) and it generates more trials (and revenues) for hospitals due to speed of result and quality of identified patients. The particular strategic competitive advantages arising from the use of cloud computing for PRS are in the areas of patient privacy and data security, and scalability and flexibility.
“Adding another hospital to Clinerion’s network is as easy as adding another virtual PRS Node,” says Andreas Walter, CTO of Clinerion. “We can easily scale the overall system to support and process queries over millions of data records. And as there is no direct inbound connection from the PRS Cloud to the PRS Nodes, the system is very secure. The PRS Nodes cannot be hacked for patient data. Patient data – pseudonymized, in any case – stays on local intranets and only report data are sent from the PRS Nodes to the PRS Cloud.” Click here to continue reading>
