A REVIEW ON MEDICAL CODING IN CLINICAL TRIAL

On the data collection tool Case report Form / Electronic Case Report Form, investigators at various sites in various countries record data generated in all clinical trials. In multicentric clinical trials, recording the medical term(s) uniformly is a big challenge because different investigators or medically competent experts are from different sites / centers. Medical coders from the clinical data management team process these phrases and execute medical coding. Medical coding is a method of organizing and categorizing medical language in order to examine and review it. The method of medical coding in clinical data management, as well as the two most often used medical dictionaries, MedDRA and WHO-DDE, are briefly discussed on this page. It is anticipated that it will assist medical coders in their comprehension of the system.
