Abstract

The present invention relates to a system and methods for facilitating the improvement of data quality generated during drug and medical device clinical trials. In one embodiment, the invention includes a system and method for generating an ideal subject suitability score for one or more interaction points of a clinical trial. One or more individual subject suitability scores may then be generated from actual subject interaction with the clinical trial for each of the interaction points of the clinical trial. For each interaction point for which an ideal subject suitability score is generated, the one or more individual subject suitability scores may be compared to the ideal subject suitability score to determine the deviation there between. The quality of data collected from actual subject interaction with the clinical trial may be a function of the difference between the individual and ideal subject suitability scores.
