About North West Coast PRIDES
Primary care IT is provided by many different software providers but the majority in our region work with two systems: EMIS Web and SystmOne.
In order to do research in primary care each practice is required to use their software system to search data. This is a complex and time consuming process which creates an increased margin for error within each practice and across practices.
The basic concept of PRIDES is to standardise electronic health searches, pop-ups and templates which are detailed, accurate and quality assured across participating organisations. The PRIDES developed for studies lead from North West Coast will be published on this website.
The aim of North West Coast Digital Research Solution is to support and develop the IT framework and tools for research in Primary Care. Making them easily available to GP practices involved in research in order to reduce administrative burden and improve recruitment and involvement in research studies.
We welcome contact from other Local Clinical Research Networks and research teams and are happy to share the resources available on this site.
We would be grateful if you could contact us if you are using our resources and provide feedback.
This area is part of the PRIDES in Primary Care research programme and has been developed to allow the sharing of IT solutions to assist research delivery.
