Abstract

Despite the considerable investment made in the National Institute of Developmental Psychiatry for Children and Adolescents (INPD), an electronic data capture (EDC) program specific for prospective research has yet to be created. There are currently a wide variety of web-based programs that can be used in the development of prospective, randomized clinical trials. However, many of those programs are costly and difficult to use, or were developed for studies with specific designs. Therefore, we propose the acquisition of servers that will enable the installation of a free EDC program, developed at Duke University and designated Dados Prospective (Dados P), which will be employed in the collection of data for INPD projects. So that data collected in these studies can be merged with those of researchers at other national and international institutions, we will provide assistance to researchers in devising data collection forms that meet international data standards, such as those established by the Cancer Data Standards Repository. After the initial implementation phase and use of the Dados P and standards, the system will be made available to the scientific community at the USP School of Medicine. The use of the Dados P program for the collection of data, together with the use of data standards proposed, will facilitate research processes at the USP School of Medicine and will improve the quality of the resulting scientific production.
