Research Portal · In production

A clinician-first research platform.

Multicentre ortho studies, EDC, ePROMs and audit trail

Run multicentre orthopaedic studies with confidence. EDC, ePROMs, audit trail, GDPR, and investigator workflow in one place — built for the way surgeons actually run registries and cohorts.

Platform

The boring parts, done right.

Clinical research lives or dies on the unglamorous bits: audit, access control, export fidelity, and whether the form submits when the wi-fi is patchy in a side room. We start there.

Purpose-built EDC

Electronic data capture designed for investigator-led orthopaedic registries and prospective cohorts — not a rebadged generic form tool.

ePROMs that patients finish

KOOS, HOOS, DASH, Oxford scores and EQ-5D, delivered by secure link and surfaced alongside clinician-entered data on one timeline.

ALCOA-C audit trail

Every change on every field is timestamped and attributable, with old and new values preserved at the database trigger level.

GDPR-first by design

Row-level security, per-field access scoping, column-level encryption for direct identifiers, and per-subject export. UK and EU hosting.

Investigator workflow

Delegation logs, site activation, training records, and study-scoped RBAC — the admin scaffolding real multicentre studies need.

Exports that match the field

Long and wide CSV, REDCap-compatible dictionaries, and CDISC ODM-XML — so data lands in your statistician's tool of choice.

Who it’s for

Stand up a study in a week, not a quarter.

Define your case report forms in a declarative schema, add sites, invite collaborators from the OrthoGlobe member directory, and start capturing data. No IT procurement cycle.

Principal investigators

Run a registry or prospective cohort without building the infrastructure first — forms, auditability, exports come in the box.

Site investigators

A lightweight investigator workflow with delegation logs, training records, and the paperwork a monitor actually looks at.

Research coordinators

ePROM links, visit schedules, and query resolution without emailing spreadsheets between sites.

Questions

Frequently asked.

What does the Research Portal actually do at launch?

A browseable directory of active and planned OrthoGlobe collaborative studies with phase, eligibility, sites, investigators, and protocol documents — plus an EDC preview with visit-based forms. Submissions open once membership review is complete.

Who can run a study?

Vetted OrthoGlobe members can propose studies for review. Approved protocols get a study page, an EDC instance, and collaborator invites across the network.

How does the EDC handle audit and compliance?

ALCOA-C audit trail at the database-trigger level, row-level access control, per-field encryption for direct identifiers, and exportable audit logs for monitors and regulators.

Where is data hosted?

UK and EU hosting with GDPR-first defaults. Country-scoped hosting is available for protocols with cross-border data restrictions.
