Techniques and Strategies for Implementing CDISC CDASH StandardsThursday 25 February 2010 Led by: kit howard, MS, ccDM, Principal and Owner, kESTREL cONSuLTING and Dorothy Dorotheo, Director, clinical Data Management, INTERMuNE

About the workshop:CDISC CDASH standards are set to shape the future of data management as the industry moves towards a more consistent approach to managing the vast amount of data generated during a trial. However developing an effective implementation strategy that incorporates in-house processes is a huge challenge.

Through a combination of lectures and hands-on exercises, this workshop will provide an interactive environment for you to discuss the various challenges of implementation. Attendees are encouraged to bring a sample Concomitant Medications CRF and the associated database structure in order to conduct a real mapping exercise. The workshop is intended to enable practitioners to share experiences with peers on how best to move forward in making processes fit the CDASH model and speed up data submissions.

Students will receive:

1. Slide deck of the presentation materials

2. Tools for performing the mappings

Workshop learning objectives:

1. Understand the content of CDASH

2. Understand the data structure philosophies behind the standard

3. Learn how to map CDASH into SDTM, including each field existing in CDASH and not in SDTM

4. Learn how to map sponsor CRFs into CDASH with results that are both CDASH and SDTM conforming
