eCRF (electronic Case Report Form)

An electronic Case Report Form (eCRF) is a digital version of a questionnaire used in clinical trials to collect and organize patient data safely and efficiently. Instead of paper forms, eCRFs allow researchers and clinicians to enter, store, and manage information electronically, improving accuracy and ease of access. They help ensure that data is consistently recorded, securely stored, and readily available for analysis. eCRFs streamline the process of tracking patient progress, treatment details, and outcomes, facilitating better decision-making and compliance with regulatory standards.
