REDCap and REDCap Survey are free, secure, web-based applications designed to support data capture for research studies. The system was developed by a multi-institutional consortium initiated at Vanderbilt University. Data collection is customized for each study or clinical trial by the research team with guidance from Harvard Catalyst EDC Support Staff. REDCap is built around HIPAA guidelines and working towards 21 CFR Part 11 compliance.

Using REDCap's stream-lined process for rapidly developing databases, you may create and design databases using:

1. Online Form Editor and/or
2. Offline method of constructing a "data dictionary" file in Microsoft Excel and uploading it to REDCap.

REDCap provides user-friendly web-based case report forms, real-time data entry validation (e.g. for data types and range checks), audit trails and the ability to set up a calendar to schedule and track critical study events such as blood-draws, participant visits, etc. Also, designated users can assign different levels of access for each member of the research team.

REDCap Survey provides a powerful tool for creating and managing surveys in your web browser. Collect responses from survey participants by:

1. sending a link to your survey via email
2. entering data manually, and/or
3. posting a link on your website.

REDCap Survey gives you the option to keep your participant responses anonymous, or track and identify responses by building an email contact list.
