Abstract:: Abstract: The construction of standardized and high-quality clinical research database is an important link for clinicians or researchers to carry out clinical medical research, and also an important guarantee for obtaining high-quality scientific research results and publication. A review on the types and challenges of traditional clinical research database creation is provided, focusing on the key technical solutions of constructing high-quality clinical research database based on electronic data capture (EDC) system, including 6 modules of technological innovation program: the combination of interactive web response system and EDC system, logical check, intelligent follow-up management, data dictionary, trace tracing, statistical analysis of research data, so as to solve the deficiency of traditional software system in constructing clinical research database. In addition, the applications of EDC system in clinical research database construction are summarized and its development prospects are discussed for providing references for clinicians or researchers to carry out high-quality clinical researches.
