Introduction

OpenSpecimen supports integration with REDCap. The integration plugin is capable of pulling all the REDCap data into OpenSpecimen - including automatically creating the Forms.

Reasons to integrate:

1. Eliminates duplicate data entry - saving end-users time and avoiding human errors.

2. Generate integrated reports and catalogs across clinical and biospecimen data.

Once the two systems are integrated, you can expect the following:

1. Participants in RC are automatically registered to the linked OS CP

2. Data for all the RC instruments are duplicated in OS forms

3. In the case of RC Longitudinal studies:

   1. All the visits in RC are automatically created in OS

   2. Data for all the RC visit-level instruments are duplicated in OS forms
