The Clinical Data Interchange Standards Consortium leads the development of global, system independent data standards which are now commonly used as the underlying data structures for clinical trial data. These describe parameters such as the name, length and format of each data field (variable) in the relational database.
A relational database (RDB [1]) is a database based on the relational model of data, as proposed by E. F. Codd in 1970. [ 2 ] A database management system used to maintain relational databases is a relational database management system ( RDBMS ).
Chronicles is Epic's real-time database; the data the user enters is immediately available in Chronicles. [22] Clarity is a relational database and Caboodle is an enterprise data warehouse platform. [23] These databases can be queried using a variety of tools within Cogito such as Reporting Workbench [24] and SlicerDicer. [25]
Since about 2005, the CDC has promoted the idea of the Public Health Information Network to facilitate the transmission of data from various partners in the health care industry and elsewhere (hospitals, clinical and environmental laboratories, doctors' practices, pharmacies) to local health agencies, then to state health agencies, and then to ...

Three key terms are used extensively in relational database models: relations, attributes, and domains. A relation is a table with columns and rows.
MUMPS technology has since expanded as the predominant database for health information systems and electronic health records in the United States. MUMPS-based information systems, such as Epic Systems ', provide health information services for over 78% of patients across the U.S. [ 1 ]
Proprietary, with a free-to-use edition (Polyhedra Lite) Relational (SQL, ODBC, JDBC) in-memory database system originally developed for use in SCADA and embedded systems, but used in a variety of other applications including financial systems. Supports data durability via snapshots and journal logging, and high availability via a hot-standby.
For example, think of A as Authors, and B as Books. An Author can write several Books, and a Book can be written by several Authors.
