Clinical data management (CDM) has gone from predominantly relying on the collection of data on paper forms to using electronic data capture (EDC). Today, the assumption is that a trial will be conducted using EDC and that extenuating circumstances might lead to it being conducted using paper. This third edition emphasizes the EDC process.
