Velos eResearch is a patient-centric system, meaning a patient has one system record and can have one or multiple study records within the system. A patient study record is created when a patient is associated to a study. The Patient Management module allows study team members to add patients and associate them to a study. Within the module, a user can update patient demographics, monitor study statuses from screening to off-study, and manage patient schedules.
Velos eResearch has built in triggers to prevent patient enrollment to a study until the necessary criteria is met such as proper status, screening, etc.
There are two routes for managing patients in the system:
▪ Using the default / standard Homepage
▪ Using the Study Patient Roster
Note: If a user’s role is only for managing study patients, it is recommended to set the Default Homepage to the Study Patient Roster, otherwise, if managing multiple functionalities, it is recommended to use the Default Homepage. For information on how to change your default homepage, see the Personalize section.
