View clinical sites dashboard data
The Clinical Sites dashboard comprises statistics on various issues and action items created and handled at all sites involved in the clinical trial.
Issues are the findings encountered during monitoring visits to the site, for instance, discovering incorrect data records or other inconsistencies in site activities.
Action items are the measures taken to resolve or address issues encountered at sites.
The clinical site issues and action items statistics are represented by various chart types, such as bar, pie, area, and line charts intended to depict statistical trends or compare multiple categories of data for a visual representation of your study activities.
-
Pie charts show the proportions of a whole with each slice representing a category’s contribution to the total.
-
Bar charts compare different categories or groups with each bar representing a category’s value.
-
Area charts depict trends with each colored area visualizing patterns, increases, or decreases in the data over time.
-
Line charts show information that changes over time by connecting individual data points with lines, allowing viewers to detect trends, patterns, and fluctuations.
