SYNOPSIS:

Background: All U.S. transplant centers are required to report comprehensive SCT outcome data copied from SCT program databases or the EMR by manual transcription.  A solution was needed to allow electronic transmission of comprehensive outcome data.  The current electronic data capture method requires mandated manual data entry of 700+ unique data elements into an internet application, FormsNetR.  Data is routinely transmission of comprehensive outcome data directly from departmental and institutional databases to the mandated SCT Outcomes Database (SCTOD). 

Methods: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center designed an integration engine to extract, map, and transmit structured form data sets through a caGRID subnet (AGNIS) directly to the SCTOD from a proprietary MDACC SCT database using a secure, rules-based, and auditable method. To make this method applicable to other centers,  MD Anderson collaborated with the NCI and others to expand the Biomedical Research Informatics Domain Group (BRIDG) standard data model to support a full set of granular data elements required to describe SCT outcomes.
