EDC

EDC, or Electronic Data Capture, is a method used mainly in clinical trials and research to collect, manage, and store data electronically instead of paper forms. It involves using secure software systems where researchers input data directly, ensuring accuracy, real-time access, and streamlined monitoring. EDC improves efficiency by reducing manual errors and speeding up data analysis, ultimately supporting better decision-making in medical studies or other data-driven projects. It's a modern, digital approach that enhances data integrity and compliance while simplifying the collection process.
