Go to item in dataset
The Study Designer application enables study teams to configure CRFs for clinical trial visits with a variety of tools. There are various form field options such as text fields, checkboxes, dropdown menus, date pickers, and more. You can place these fields on the form canvas, arrange them as needed, and make sure they are associated with the corresponding variables.
When maintaining a form, you have the possibility to view any item responses in the dataset. The item preview enables you to analyze how the potentially captured data will look in the output dataset upon data entry in the EDC system. It helps identify any missing or incomplete question responses, outliers, or inconsistencies. By checking the preview, you can ensure the quality and integrity of the potentially collected data.
