Our range of services includes:
Project management for data utilization
MeDIZ.RUB takes over the project management for the use of healthcare data in clinical research. Researchers who would like to use this data for their projects can submit applications via MeDIZ.RUB. These so-called Data Use Projects (DUPs) are reviewed and implemented here.
Feasibility request
Before researchers can use data from the UK RUB, the MeDIZ.RUB checks the availability of the required data. This preparatory feasibility inquiry ensures that the data basis is sufficient for the respective research project and that the project is feasible.
Data provision for research purposes
MeDIZ.RUB provides pseudonymized care and research data for research projects. This data is prepared in such a way that it meets syntactic and semantic standards and can be used directly in research.
Data management and curation
The MeDIZ.RUB takes over the management and curation of the collected care data from the hospital systems. After renewed pseudonymization, this data is made available for research projects. The MeDIZ.RUB team pays particular attention to the quality of the data so that it is reliable and meaningful.
Quality management and data protection
Strict quality management procedures are implemented at MeDIZ.RUB to ensure the high quality of the data managed. At the same time, all data protection regulations are consistently adhered to guarantee the security and confidentiality of patient data.
User and rights management
MeDIZ.RUB manages the rights of use of the data and ensures that all researchers respect the legal requirements and the consent status of the patients. This data rights management guarantees that the data is used in accordance to legal requirements.
Patient information and further education
MeDIZ.RUB is actively involved in informing and educating patients and data users. This involves communicating transparently how medical data is used for research projects and what contribution patient data can make to improve medical care.
As MeDIZ.RUB, we act as a link between clinical care and research and ensure the highest standards in the areas of data quality, data protection and data security.
