Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust improve record keeping efficiency
The trust previously used a paper-based quality management system (QMS) that was difficult to manage, and concluded that an electronic QMS would significantly ease the collation of the ever-increasing amount of mandatory documentation required to comply with Good Clinical Practice (GCP).
Since Q-Pulse has been implemented, both departments are on top of their SOP documentation, training records and equipment management.
Benefits
- Achieved the highest standard of compliance, most notably in their recent MHRA GCP inspection wherein scrutiny of the system found zero non conformances
- The CCTU joined list of top research facilities by gaining registration with UK Clinical Research Collaboration network
- Document and information retrieval in seconds, quickening and easing inspections from bodies such as MHRA
- Up-to-date maintenance and equipment records
The accreditation of the Cambridge Clinical Trials Unit was a great achievement for us. Gaining registration by the UK Clinical Research Collaboration network added to our excellent reputation as one of the top research centres.
