---|---|---|
Cancer clinical trials are rigorously defined clinical studies designed to establish the safety and comparative efficacy of a proposed treatment protocol. The protocol specifies all treatment events that are to occur, and precisely when they are to occur. Cancer clinical trials therefore require very detailed treatment calendars for each individual patient enrolled on a study. Creating and maintaining these calendars is a tedious, time-consuming task for protocol nurses. "TreatmentCal" is a software package for cancer treatment management which allows the calendars to be automatically generated and updated. This Web-accessible database application can also produce output for handheld computers. "TreatmentCal" has reduced the workload of protocol nurses. |
