Audit Trail

From Codex of clinical research

Audit Trail is a chronological and secure record of activities, actions, and changes made within a clinical trial's data management or electronic systems. It serves to track and document any modifications, additions, or deletions to ensure data integrity, compliance with regulatory requirements, and transparency. The audit trail provides a detailed history of data alterations and the identity of the individuals responsible for those changes.
