REDCap (Research Electronic Data Capture) is a secure, web-based application designed to support data capture for clinical research studies, allowing users to build and manage online surveys and databases.  REDCap is specifically customized to support online data capture for clinical research studies, including Health Information ACT (HIA), Health Canada (HC), and Good Clinical Practice (GCP) compliant environments. CHI adheres to the Information Security Classification Standard for data used by the University of Calgary for faculties and research departments. Our system protects Level 4 data, which is restricted to use by anyone. CHI provides services to academic institutions, research centers, academic health centers, and clinics to build surveys, forms, and databases in REDCap.
