Clinical Protocol Definition Address all clinical trial designs from simple to complex global studies with LabWare's flexible clinical protocol definition and management tools. Configurable blinding features control data access in reports as well as the user interface. Storage Location Management LabWare’s Storage Location Manager provides a rich graphical interface that displays the selected storage location hierarchy. The interface provides a convenient way to visualize storage locations and to quickly identify available storage space at any level of the hierarchy tree. LabWare MOBILE (available on Android and iOS devices) allows users to easily connect to their LabWare systems, see their data, and perform customer-defined tasks. Learn More > Top Use Cases Simplifying Clinical Study & Subject Management The LabWare Biorepository solution includes powerful features that enable the biobank to ensure compliance with the requirements detailed in the study protocol. Configurable templates define the study in such a way that the system can automatically drive the workflow activities, enabling validation of the data that is collected, and controlling the information and format used on any reports or in data extracts. Additional capabilities include management of the design, production, and inventory tracking of sampling kits; kit component inventory; and requisitions and order/fulfillment management for the kits and kit supplies. Authorized users can manage subject details including demographics, medical history, consent, and family relationships with granular control over individual data access and functional privileges. These permissions protect subject data and comply with security and privacy requirements. Managing Specimen Registration & Receipt Investigator sites can access the LabWare application through a web browser to pre-register specimens. You can configure the system to cater for a variety of different types of specimen or subject data that must be captured. Templates enable mapping the data in manifest files to standardized values used by the biorepository. LabWare tracks each shipment to enable chain of custody tracking of each item. Web services interfaces are available and can be implemented to track incoming shipments by delivery service organizations such as FedEx and UPS. Each item received in the shipment can be scanned with a barcode reader and placed into a position in a storage container.
