The GLA:D® program is an education and exercise program that has helped thousands of people with hip and knee osteoarthritis manage their symptoms of pain and loss of function. Using DADOS, the GLA:D team is able to collect outcomes of participants across the country with all data housed in a single database. DADOS allows for seamless participant registration, survey completion, and offers reminders for follow-up surveys at the prescribed time points. DADOS currently offers solutions to more than 300 sites across Canada.
The study found that the patients who had surgery performed after a non-surgical treatment experienced greater pain relief and improvement than those with the surgery alone. Read the full article to learn why it’s important for the patient to undergo an optimal non-surgical treatment program before considering surgery.

In a recent study published in Osteoarthritis and Cartilage, researchers compared 2-year results from two randomized studies to determine what treatment – non-surgical management or total knee replacement – fits the needs of the individual patient with knee osteoarthritis.

Patient-reported outcomes are fundamental in moving health care closer to a value-based model. A recent article published in Health IT Analytics lists some best practices for optimizing your collection of PROs, such as setting clear goals, using validated questions, and avoiding repetitions.

According to the eClinical Landscape Study from Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development, 97% of life sciences companies expect to increase the use of clinical data sources over the next three years to make faster, more accurate decisions during clinical trials. Ninety-eight per cent of 250 respondent companies, however, currently have challenges with their clinical data management applications. Ninety-three percent aim to use electronic patient reported outcomes and electronic clinical outcome assessment as sources in three years. Read the full article to learn more about the challenges facing clinical data management systems.
DADOS enables the use of clinical data sources in electronic patient record (EPR) systems through connectors to non-operational data repositories (NODR), which are a mirror copy of the EPR.
