We are pleased to announce two important updates in EasyMedStat that enhance the flexibility and reliability of your clinical research workflows: Custom Record ID (CRID) and Test/Production Modes. These features provide you with better control over patient identifiers and the ability to switch between testing and production environments with ease. Here’s an overview of what’s new and how it can benefit your research.
In clinical research, tracking participants through clear and consistent identifiers is critical. To support this, EasyMedStat now offers the option to customize patient identifiers through the new CRID feature. You can define a custom pattern for generating unique patient IDs, which can include both numeric and alphanumeric elements. This system ensures that patient identifiers are automatically generated, non-editable, and incremented sequentially, minimizing errors and maintaining consistency.
Key features of CRID:
This feature helps streamline patient identification, making it easier to manage participants across different sites and reducing the risk of data mismanagement.

In addition to CRID, we’ve introduced the Test/Production Mode to make transitioning your study from development to active data collection more straightforward. During the early stages of a study, you often need to test settings, workflows, and data entry processes without risking real patient data. Now, you can start in Test Mode, where everything can be experimented with, and then move to Production Mode when you’re ready to collect live data.
Key benefits of Test/Production Modes:
These modes allow for flexibility and peace of mind, helping you prepare and validate study settings before launching them in a live research environment.
With the introduction of Custom Record ID (CRID) and Test/Production Modes, EasyMedStat continues to provide tools that enhance your study management and data integrity. The new features support a more organized and secure clinical research process, whether you're managing a single-site study or a complex multicenter project.
These updates are available now for all users. We encourage you to explore these features in your next study setup to see how they can streamline your research workflows and data management.
