title: Global clinical data interchange standards are here!
abstract: The Clinical Data Interchange Standards Consortium (CDISC) has succeeded in developing global clinical data interchange standards that are ready for implementation. The various CDISC models are identified and explained in this article as well as how these models work together. In addition to developing the CDISC standards, CDISC is involved actively in many collaborative projects with other organizations as a result of their numerous alliances and partnerships. CDISC standards are supporting not only the pharmaceutical industry but also other initiatives and services in healthcare.
