OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Six CTSA sites formed a collaboration to DEVELOP, DEMONSTRATE, AND DISSEMINATE new infrastructure to streamline collection and analysis of research participant feedback, using the Research Participant Perception Survey (RPPS), common standards, and customized REDCap-based tools, to improve the clinical research enterprise. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: DEVELOP charter, consensus approach, core survey, deployment standards, data-use agreements; define meta-data, system requirements for the infrastructure, use-cases. Engage stakeholders for broad institutional and community input. Build RPPS/REDCap project, visual analytics Dashboard External Module, and Program Dashboard module for evaluation. Configure to use with Multilingual Module. DEMONSTRATE by implementing site-based use cases that reflect local priorities and span diverse populations, testing different methods of survey deployment (REDCap, patient portal, SMS) to showcase utility and flexibility. Generate data for local and inter-institutional benchmarking. Refine, then DISSEMINATE new infrastructure across the Consortium and REDCap community for broader testing and uptake. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: The project team refined the RPPS survey for inclusivity and mode of informed consent; defined standards for survey timing, sampling, and study metadata; configured the data dictionary in English and Spanishfor use with the multi-lingual module ; developed tools for project evaluation. Stakeholder engagement identified themes of anticipated value and fears about feedback. We designed an At-a-Glance Dashboard to display survey results with detailed analytics and filters. A REDCap application programming interface will send de-identified site data to the EPV Consortium Database to support benchmarking. Full implementation began November 2021 and will scale in 2022. Dissemination to Consortium and REDCap users is ongoing through presentations and a project website (www.Rockefeller.edu/research/epv). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Direct feedback from representative populations about their experiences in research is essential to understand and resolve barriers to broad participation in research. Streamlined RPPS/REDCap infrastructure provides a platform for local and national benchmarking, and collection of actionable data to improve clinical research.
