Abstract:ObjectiveTo explore the feasibility and practicability of research electronic data capture (REDCap) database in clinical research of phonosurgery.MethodsREDCap database was designed and constructed to collect the basic information, personal history and history of professional voice use, related diseases, physical examination, voice assessment, voice handicap index(Simplified Chinese version), surgical information, pathological result, reflux symptom index, reflux finding score (RFS). For each patient, 6 data collection timepoints were set, including enrollment, operation, one week, 3 weeks, 2 months and one year after operation. The application of REDCap database in our hospital from July 2016 to Jan. 2017 was summarized.ResultsConsisted of 10 instrument tables, 3 modules and 6 event timepoints, our voice REDCap database was able to achieve simultaneous multipleended input of medical data, quality control and authority management.104 patients were enrolled in our REDCap database. Of them, 102 completed their follow up of oneweek and threeweek, and 98 completed twomonth follow up with all instruments complished.ConclusionWith advantages of integrity and timeliness of record, decreased lost rate of follow up, our REDCap database can cover the basic flow and meet demands of clinical research of phonosurgery.
