Ripple overview

What is Ripple?

Ripple is a SaaS platform that automates patient recruitment, administrative tasks, and reporting activities for contract research organizations and academic centers that are conducting clinical research and trials, as well as translational and social studies.

As an active registry, Ripple helps track active leads, design and execute recruitment campaigns, schedule appointments, and carry out other administrative tasks. In addition, the platform enables researches to digitally track each patient throughout the study, with the aim of improving patient retention and data quality. Data tracking and support for custom data variables ensure that no trial-related data goes missing while event and appointment dashboards simplify patient management workflows for research administrators.

Ripple provides researches with a centralized hub for all patient-related communications. The system also sends out automatic task-specific reminders to help keep users on track. With robust reporting capabilities, Ripple reduces the administrative burden on clinical site staff by streamlining regulatory reporting. Research sponsors get a separate access level to the system that allows them easy access to de-identified study data, enhancing transparency.

With Ripple, research sites can build a registry of patient data in order to maintain information about previously screened participants that can be recruited for future studies. Real time reports keep staff up-to-date on how recruitment campaigns are progressing and provide enrollment projections to help users estimate when their enrollment goals will be reached.

Daniel E.

Graduate Student

“The two-page system (when extra participants roll over onto the next page) is very confusing. I'd prefer to scroll down a single page than click through different pages of the status headings.”

“To avoid this, we simply move the participant to their enrollment/ineligibility status manually.”
