CogState vs Rave eConsent

NOTE: THIS SOFTWARE REQUIRES A LICENCE KEY FROM COGSTATE CogState Research is an academically oriented version of the CogState ClinicalTrials software. With the same proven rapidity, sensitivity and validity, this software provides academic researchers with a powerful method of testing cognition at a competitive price. It has been used by institutions such as Yale University, the University of Melbourne and the Australian Government's National Health & Medical Research Council. CogState tests use simple but effective technology to detect cognitive change in subjects. The tests begin by taking a baseline measurement from a subject who is then periodically retested in order to detect cognitive change. CogState testing utilizes culture-neutral stimuli, which ensures that a wide range of subjects can be tested regardless of their ethnicity, socio-economic background or education. CogState tests are extremely sensitive and their validity has been demonstrated in over 100 peer-reviewed articles.

Medidata Patient Cloud Rave eConsent is our innovative, patient-friendly electronic informed consent and patient enrollment system for clinical trials. Potential participants gain full disclosure of the nature of the research and their involvement by viewing interactive tools and animations that better explain the risks and benefits of the trial. The app tracks metrics for adequate comprehension on the part of the participant and captures their voluntary choice to join the study with electronic signatures. Sites can streamline patient visits, track consents remotely, reduce on-site monitoring, and reduce the risk of findings from regulatory audits by using Rave eConsent’s unique technology for secure communications and identity verification. Sponsors benefit from a consistent consent review across all sites ensuring all required signatures are secured, manage consent amendments while reducing site and monitoring costs.
