Abstract

Systems, methods, computer-readable media, and graphical user interfaces for facilitating filtering values in a closed menu for integrated data capture are provided. Integrated data capture workflows are initiated from within an electronic medical record (EMR). Time ranges associated with data from the EMR are received. Data is gathered from the EMR to make available to case report forms. Values associated with the data are presented in closed menu for the time ranges. Selections of the values are received. Case report forms are populated with the selected values.

Claims

1. Computer storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon, that when executed by one or more computing devices, cause the one or more computing devices to perform a method for facilitating filtering values in a closed menu for integrated data capture, the method comprising:

initiating an integrated data capture workflow from within an Electronic Medical Record (EMR);

receiving a time range associated with data from the EMR;

gathering data from the EMR to make available to a case report form;

presenting values associated with the data in a closed menu for the time range;

receiving a selection of the values; and

populating the case report form with the selected values.

2. The media of claim 1, further comprising displaying an indicator that an alternate result for an item is available.

3. The media of claim 2, further comprising receiving a selection of the indicator.

4. The media of claim 3, further comprising presenting a menu of alternate results for the item.

5. The media of claim 4, further comprising receiving a selection of an alternate result.

6. The media of claim 5, further comprising storing the case report form.

7. The media of claim 1, further comprising not allowing manual updates to the values.

8. The media of claim 7, further comprising receiving manual entry of contextual information for a value.

9. The media of claim 1, further comprising receiving an indication to clear an unwanted value.

10. The media of claim 1, further comprising submitting the case report form to a research record.

11. The media of claim 1, further comprising displaying an audit trail for the selection of values.

12. A computer system that facilitates filtering values in a closed menu for integrated data capture, the computer system comprising a processor coupled to a computer storage medium, the computer storage medium having stored thereon a plurality of computer software components executable by the processor, the computer software components comprising:

a workflow component for initiating an integrated data capture workflow from within an Electronic Medical Record (EMR);

a temporal component for receiving a time range associated with data from the EMR;

a gather component for gathering data from the EMR to make available to a case report form;

a presentation component for presenting values associated with the data for the time range in a closed menu;

a selection component for receiving a selection of the values; and

a population component for populating the case report form with the selected values.

13. The system of claim 12, further comprising an indicator component for displaying an indicator that an alternate result for an item is available.

14. The system of claim 13, further comprising a presentation component for presenting a closed menu of alternate results for the item if the indicator is selected.

15. The system of claim 14, further comprising a selection component for receiving a selecting of an alternate result.

16. The system of claim 12, further comprising a store component for storing the case report form.

17. The system of claim 12, further comprising a clear component for receiving a selection to clear unwanted data from the case report form.

18. Computer storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that, when executed, produce a graphical user interface (GUI) to facilitate filtering values in a closed menu for integrated data capture, the GUI comprising:

a workflow display area configured to display an integrated data capture workflow from within an Electronic Medical Record (EMR);

a time display area configured to display a time range for gathering data from the EMR to make available to a case report form; and

a values display area configured to display values associated with the data in a closed menu in accordance with the time range.

19. The GUI of claim 18, further comprising an indicator display area configured to display an indicator if alternate results for an item are available.

20. The GUI of claim 18, further comprising an alternate results display area configured to display a closed menu of alternate results for the item if the indicator is selected.
