Edit lab details

For the EDC system to know how to complete the data in the lab result case report forms (CRFs), you need to define a lab by mapping the domains from which the data should be taken to each field of the CRF. Thus, when the test results are entered in a CRF related to this lab, the EDC application can automatically populate the respective data and estimate the normal ranges.

In EDC, you can edit the existing labs in case you want to change some details or mapping parameters.

To edit lab details
  1. In the EDC application header, select the STUDY INFO tab.

  2. In the left pane, select the Lab > Lab Define subtab.
