Time, Efficiency, and Cost | Is Paper Less Expensive than EDC?
Historically, a common barrier to entry for implementing Electronic Data Capture (EDC) systems for small studies is the upfront costs, a large part of which, comes from professional services fees. Luckily, as technology has evolved, there has been an industry-wide shift away from legacy EDC systems, which require programming, to easy-to-use systems with drag-and-drop design interfaces.
The shift toward do-it-yourself systems has decreased study build time and eliminated
professional services costs. This white paper is written, alongside supporting industry research, to debunk the myth that paper is more cost effective than EDC, even for small studies intersection of space medicine and digital health, highlighting how cutting-edge technologies are being adapted for space exploration missions and astronaut health monitoring.
