Companies Partner Up to Automate Coding
Netrics (Princeton, N.J.), a provider of intelligent database record matching software, has formed a partnership with SigmaSoft International in an effort to help organizations meet the compliance standards for pharmaceutical and medical device clinical trial data.
The two companies have collaborated on a new auto encoder/browser for defining MedDRA and WHODrug terminology, designed to automate the coding of adverse event and concomitant medication terminology.
According to SigmaSoft (Chicago), a global supplier of data management software solutions for clinical trials, its auto encoder/browser can search tens of thousands of highly complex medical terms, intuitively correcting human errors, and find correct matches instantly - despite data errors and inconsistencies.
