Abstract

The use of Real-World Data (RWD) in medical data analysis is nowadays required. RWD may come from electronic health records (EHRs), insurance claims, medical products, Internet of Things sensors, health screenings, etc. The goal of RWD is that the data used for analysis should not be affected by environmental variables, experimental control, research context settings, etc. RWD can effectively reduce the cost and improve the accuracy of medical research. The clinical data and patient self-report are integrated, cleaned and pre-processed, and the data format is unified and standardized by international standard formats to provide a structured database for clinical research by this study. An international standard real-world research database was established through the breast cancer database of a medical center in Taipei.
