What are the issues being addressed? • Changes in Governance requirements for medical translational research • Auditable adherence to NHS and MRC trial processes • Communication within and across project teams • Clinical data capture and reuse
How? • A previously funded JISC VRE project called CORE (collaborative Orthopaedic Research Environment) has explicitly tackled these issues, and so the aim of this project is to take the CORE VRE, embed it into the RNOH • Solution built on open framework (DJANGO)
Student Trial • Random Control Trial • Clinical Audit
Current RNOH Projects using VRIC • Surface EMG - Dana Maki - 'Scenario prototyping' - Demonstrating data capture techniques, governance and documentation recording • 'Brake Pedal' - Kirsty MacLeod - 'Horizontal prototype' demonstrating Basic Science -> Clinical and Ethics preparation, plus multicentre work • Clinical Databases - Raphael Malikian - These are for supporting the paediatric, shoulder and part of the spinal service demonstrating the 'vertical prototype' of data capture from the clinical level.
Future Trails • 10 more projects starting in April that will use VRIC • Further discussions with MRC in London and Cape Town, South Africa in April • Consortium - European Unionhttp://www.nanobridge.eu/converis/
Future Work • Procedural Case Study • Technical Case Study • Support Documentation • Web2.0 Features
