Solution Overview

Problem

Current clinical trial data management systems lack an efficient method for tracking and accessing queries generated during data input, which hampers data reliability and increases management costs.

Innovation Solution

An associated query display system and method that stores query generation conditions, determines query relevance, and outputs queries on user terminals, providing a function to track and access query cause items through a user interface with page information and links.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If query management is implemented in traditional clinical trial systems, then data reliability is improved, but management complexity and time consumption increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata reliabilityVSAvoidmanagement complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments query management into distinct functional modules: query generation module that automatically creates queries when data entry errors occur, query display module that presents queries to users, and query resolution module that tracks corrections. This segmentation reduces management complexity by making each module independent and manageable while maintaining data reliability through systematic query handling.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary actions by pre-defining query generation conditions and rules before data entry begins. Query templates and validation rules are established in advance, allowing the system to automatically generate appropriate queries without manual intervention when data errors occur, thereby reducing management complexity while ensuring consistent data quality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Reliability

If manual query tracking is used in clinical trial data management, then query resolution can be achieved, but time consumption and operational costs increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequery resolution effectivenessVSAvoidtime consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables self-service query resolution by automatically generating queries with clear error descriptions and suggested corrections. Users can independently review displayed queries, access relevant data context, and resolve issues without requiring manual intervention from data managers, thereby reducing time consumption while maintaining effective query resolution.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements automated feedback loops where query resolution status is automatically updated and tracked. When users correct data errors, the system automatically verifies corrections against predefined rules and provides feedback on resolution status, eliminating manual tracking time while ensuring thorough query resolution.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Productivity

If comprehensive query tracking functionality is added to user terminals, then query management efficiency is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequery management efficiencyVSAvoidterminal system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The user terminal implements a universal query management interface that handles multiple functions: displaying queries, showing data context, tracking resolution status, and providing correction tools. This multi-functional interface consolidates what would otherwise require separate systems into a single integrated terminal, improving query management efficiency without proportionally increasing complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces an intermediary query management layer between the user terminal and the clinical trial data system. This intermediary handles complex query generation, display, and tracking operations, allowing the user terminal to remain relatively simple while still providing comprehensive query management capabilities through the intermediary service.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
