Bespoke Design, Build and Maintenance of Trial-Specific Pathway for BASIS within the British Spine Registry

About

University of Sheffield awarded a contract to Amplitude Clinical Services Limited for the bespoke design, build, and maintenance (including updates) of a trial-specific pathway for the BASIS study within the British Spine Registry.

This pathway enables direct data capture of research data and electronic consent for participation in the BASIS trial.

The BASIS study is a clinical trial funded by the NIHR HTA programme, investigating whether night-time bracing is as effective as full-time bracing for patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.

The study involves around 20 UK NHS hospital trusts, coordinated by the Sheffield CTRU at the University of Sheffield, with Sheffield Children's Hospital as the lead site and Sponsor.

The British Spine Registry, provided by Amplitude, was selected for electronic data collection and consent because it was already familiar to most clinicians involved and offered a similar cost profile to the University of Sheffield's system 'Prospect'.

The contract value is AUD 74,000.
