Randomized clinical trials play an important role in the advancement of science, pursuit of improved health, and quest for more effective delivery of health care. Patients, policy makers, and the medical community recognize these trials as the gold standard in the development of evidence on which to base the delivery of medical care [1]. In spite of their importance, the conduct of these trials is challenging for a variety of reasons, including their cost and complexity to perform [2]. The field of applied clinical informatics is increasingly well-positioned to facilitate many of the traditional steps required for the successful conduct of a prospective randomized clinical trial, potentially catalyzing the efficient generation of high-quality medical evidence and incorporation of the medical record into a learning health system [3, 4]. …Anzeige
