The Method
Commenced in 2007-08, OVISTM (Online Volunteers Information service) offers an Integrated Countrywide Human
Volunteers Eligibility and Cross Participation Tracking. This net based service is the only of its kind in India.
A volunteer once dosed at a CRO is logged in this system with the study parameters along with the finger prints.
The same volunteer when applies at any other CRO of the country will be tested on this platform with finger prints.
If this re-participation is not satisfying the eligibility date criteria, he/she will be disallowed from participating.
The criteria is based on blood regeneration, drug life cycle and drug wash out time.
Other essential information like volunteer history, screening and dosing attendance, audit reports, data exchange
options, user level controls, warning and alerts are provided.
