Preview randomization alert email
Randomization is a process to help you avoid potential bias in the selection and allocation of subjects arising from the predictability of treatment assignments. From a statistical perspective, randomization provides unbiased estimates of error variance and independence of errors. A randomization alert is a customizable notification mechanism that generates an email to inform relevant parties when a normal or forced subject randomization succeeds or fails.
The purpose of a randomization alert is to promptly notify the responsible IWRS users about the subject randomization. The created randomization alerts include settings that define how the email subject and content need to be populated. You can preview these settings in a separate dialog to see how the alert will generate the email.
-
In the IWRS application header, select the ALERT tab.
-
On the page that opens, from the left pane, select the subtab corresponding to the alert category of your interest.
