Integrated Data Repository Toolkit (IDRT)

Abstract

i2b2's promise is to enable clinical researchers to devise and test new hypothesis even without a deep knowledge in statistical programing. The approach presented here has been tested in a number of scenarios with millions of observations and tens of thousands of patients. Initially mostly observant, trained researchers were able to construct new analyses on their own. Early feedback indicates that timely and extensive access to their "own" data is appreciated most, but it is also lowering the barrier for other tasks, for instance checking data quality and completeness (missing data, wrong coding).
