Abstract
Clinical studies involve an increasing amount of data collection and management. However, there is no specific quality standard sufficiently practical, in free access, and open for data management and the underlying IT-infrastructure in academic units. European Clinical Research Infrastructures Network (ECRIN) published standard requirements for certified data management units. We present a French version of these standards. A group of experts produced the standards, by consensus. The first version was revised after two pilot audits for data centre certification were performed. The revised version includes 21 lists of five to ten standards, in three groups: information technologies, data management (DM) and "general". These standards offer a clear description of DM and IT requirements for clinical studies. Initially created for ECRIN certification purposes, they offer a very useful reference for academic DM structures.
