The Yonalink timeline:
“If a medical task or a healthcare process is repetitive and/or data-based, it is prone to be replaced by artificial intelligence.”
In 2018 while employed at a Canadian Clinical Research Oranization (CRO), Iddo Peleg was exasperated by the clear inefficiencies plaguing clinical trials. Trial personnel were grappling with burnout due to the laborious, detail-intensive, and moonotonous task of data transfer from Electronic Health Records (EHR) to sponsor databases (EDC).
In their neighborhood running group, Iddo shared his observations with Gav Martell. Through numerous discussions and miles covered, they discerned a viable solution - automate data streaming - an EHR-to-EDC platform. This solution would alleviate staff burden, minimize human errors inherent in manual data transfer, and provide enhanced data oversight for sponsors and study coordinators across all trial phases.
