Rapid Feasibility

FARSITE searches millions of deidentified EHRs in seconds, confirming feasibility in minutes, enabling protocol design in hours. This instant feedback helps identify potential challenges and opportunities early in the planning process, ensuring that trials are designed with realistic and achievable goals for cost effective, time efficient, outcome driven study start up. 

Protocol design

FARSITE enables iterative trial design, allowing refinement and optimisation as new data becomes available. Intuitive data search using natural language gives valuable insights from the data, facilitating the creation of robust and well-informed study protocols. Now with new search functionality using Deprivation Scores, inclusion is no longer an afterthought as it can be built into the protocol design stage. 

Find and refer

FARSITE can find participants by searching EHRs using a range of demographic criteria, medical history and various other criteria including Deprivation Scores to ensure that people from across the socioeconomic spectrum including those from hard-to-reach groups are given the opportunity  to take part.

Recruit

FARSITE streamlines participant recruitment through direct collaboration with GPs. Once eligible participants are found, FARSITE alerts the GP practice who will then review and ensure their patient meets the criteria and is able to participate and only then will an invitation to participate be sent

Deprivation scores

FARSITE can now also search using Deprivation Scores, enabling researchers to find participants from socioeconomically diverse backgrounds. This feature will help researchers design clinical trials that are more inclusive and representative of the broader population, enhancing the generalisability of study results.
