Veeva Systems has announced it has moved into the patient space with MyVeeva, a new application for clinical research sites.
With “capabilities for virtual visits, patient adherence, ePRO, eConsent, eSource and an easy to use patient portal, MyVeeva will make it easier for clinical research sites to deliver a patient-centric and paperless clinical trial experience for patients and sponsors,” the company reports. MyVeeva is free for clinical research sites and integrates with Veeva SiteVault.
“There is a pressing need for clinical solutions that reduce the burden on patients participating in trials and make study execution easier for sites,” commented Jessica Collins, program director for investigator-initiated clinical trials at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. “Having the ability to conduct parts of a study remotely is key to a better patient experience and speeding study conduct. It’s a crucial shift for the industry and I appreciate the innovation Veeva is bringing to this important area.”
MyVeeva enables patients, doctors, and clinical research coordinators to collaborate remotely with advanced audio and video capabilities, reducing the need for in-person visits. Clinical researchers can collect and record patient data electronically; make it more convenient for patients to report on treatment outcomes; easily share information electronically and get patient consent; and help patients take medications and adhere to their treatment regimens.
