1 Getting Started with Remote Data Capture Onsite 1-1 1Getting Started with Remote Data Capture Onsite Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite (RDC Onsite) is a Web application that works with studies that are defined and designed using Oracle Clinical. You can use RDC Onsite to collect, review, and report clinical data collected during a patient visit in a clinical study. This chapter includes the following topics: ■ About Electronic Data Capture ■ Terminology to Know and Understand ■ About RDC Onsite User Roles ■ Starting the RDC Onsite Application ■ Starting at the Home Page ■ Changing Your RDC Onsite Login Password ■ Setting Your Preferences for Lists and Dates ■ Getting Help and Assistance ■ Logging Out

About Electronic Data Capture 1-2 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide About Electronic Data Capture With electronic data capture, you enter research information from source documents into the computer, and save it to a database located at the host company. Electronic data capture facilitates real-time processes, which means that as site users enter and update data, the project team and sponsor can access the same data immediately after it has been saved to the database. Some advantages of using electronic data capture are as follows: ■ Real-time access to captured data ■ Simultaneous execution of tasks by multiple user groups ■ Accurate tracking of patient enrollment ■ High-quality data ensured by electronic edit checks ■ Remote review and monitoring Terminology to Know and Understand RDC Onsite uses many terms that are common in the clinical studies and clinical trials industry. However, some of the terms have a different meaning from the standard. It is important to understand the differences. This section clarifies the use of certain terms in the RDC Onsite application and documentation. Case Report Form (CRF) A case report form (CRF) is a paper or electronic record associated with a patient in a clinical study. Its purpose is to facilitate accurate collection of clinical data. Strictly speaking, a CRF has no data. It is a blank form. Once you enter and save data into the form, it is an entered CRF or a document. However, in both the clinical trials industry and in this user guide, CRF can refer to either an empty CRF or an entered CRF. For clarity in a potentially ambiguous context, this user guide uses terms such as entered CRF, document, and empty CRF. Many companies refer to eCRFs when using an electronic data capture system. In this user guide, all CRFs are electronic CRFs, unless the term paper CRF is used explicitly. Page A page refers to an RDC Onsite application page. RDC Onsite, like all applications or sites on the World Wide Web, is made up of pages. Many companies refer to a CRF as a page. In some cases, this user guide refers to multi-page CRFs and pages within a CRF. Casebook A casebook refers to the definition of visits expected, and the CRFs expected at each visit. A patient casebook is one instance of the casebook, either with or without data entered. Some companies refer to an entire casebook as a CRF. A casebook is a collection of phases, patients, visits, and CRFs within a study. Discrepancy A discrepancy is any data that falls outside of an expected range of values or is otherwise flagged during the edit check process as an error. Some examples of a discrepancy are an invalid date or an age greater than the maximum age for the study.

About RDC Onsite User Roles Getting Started with Remote Data Capture Onsite 1-3 RDC Onsite checks the data and raises discrepancies (an electronic query) at various times in the data entry process. For example, suppose the age range for the patients in your clinical trial is 20 to 40 years old. If you enter 50 for the age of a patient, RDC Onsite immediately displays a message that the value is out of range. Because RDC Onsite verifies certain data against a set of values, you can immediately correct errors or discrepancies during the data entry process. About RDC Onsite User Roles Your user role, together with privileges granted to you, determine your activities with RDC Onsite. Your user role defines what you can and cannot do in the RDC Onsite application. For example, your user role may let you enter data, modify data, and resolve discrepancies, but not let you verify or approve the data. By default, RDC Onsite includes the following pre-defined user roles: ■ Site user ■ Investigator ■ Clinical Research Associate (CRA) ■ Data manager In addition, your sponsor can create and define various other user roles for your instance of RDC Onsite. The following sections describe the default user roles. Site User A site user enters patient data into electronic Case Report Forms (CRFs). Site users can start to enter data after the database development is complete, and the study is underway. Entering data and addressing system-generated discrepancies take place simultaneously. Persons with this user role include study coordinators, site coordinators, nurses, research assistants, and data entry personnel. Investigator The investigator is the physician responsible for the study at a particular site. The investigator approves CRFs and sometimes also enters data. After data for a patient is entered and reviewed, and all discrepancies are resolved, the investigator electronically signs the forms, confirming the veracity of the entered data. Clinical Research Associate (CRA) As soon as possible after data is saved at the site, the Clinical Research Associate (CRA) reviews study data and addresses issues, performing source data verification either remotely or during a site visit. The CRA, commonly called a clinical monitor or monitor, is an employee of the sponsor or the Clinical Research Organization (CRO). After data for a patient is entered and reviewed, and all discrepancies are resolved, the CRA has the privileges to electronically verify the forms, confirming that all information has been reviewed. Data Manager The data manager is a member of the study team and works at the sponsor site. The data manager uses RDC Onsite to monitor enrollment, track study progress, and review the data for overall quality, patterns, and trending. In addition, the data manager may enter, review, and resolve discrepancies.

If the number of items to display exceeds the limit, RDC Onsite adds Next and Previous links so you can browse the entire list. ■ Input Date Format — Defines the format in which you need to enter dates into a CRF. RDC Onsite uses the specified format to record dates in the database. If you do not enter dates in the correct input format, RDC Onsite displays an error message. Select your sponsor's recommended date format. The available input formats are: – mm-dd-yyyy (US), default setting – dd-mm-yyyy (European) – yyyy-mm-dd (Swedish) The standard format (dd-mon-yyyy, for example, 23-Jul-2010) is not provided as an explicit option. However, if you use the standard format when entering dates, RDC Onsite accepts it. ■ Display Date Format — Defines the format that RDC Onsite uses to display dates. This setting affects only the display of dates. It does not affect the format RDC Onsite uses to record dates into the database. The available formats are: – Same format that you selected in the Input Date Format field – dd-mon-yyyy (Standard), default setting ■ Display timestamps in local timezone — Specifies that RDC Onsite displays time stamps in terms of your local time zone. This setting affects only the display of time stamps for events such as when the CRF was last modified, approved, verified, or locked. It does not affect the format RDC Onsite uses to record time stamps in the database. RDC Onsite always stores time stamps according to the time zone of the database server. 3. Click Apply. RDC Onsite automatically applies and saves your changes. Once you apply your changes, you can click any page tab or link to continue with your work. Your changes remain in effect until you modify your preferences again. Note: This setting does not affect the Casebooks page. The Casebooks page displays information in a spreadsheet format not a list format. RDC Onsite always displays 10 rows of patient information at a time on the Casebooks page. Note: The Display timestamps in local timezone setting does not affect the display of the last refresh time. The time of a last refresh always corresponds to the time setting currently defined for your PC. The Display Date Format setting, however, does affect the format of the last refresh date.

2 Learning the Common Tools 2-1 2Learning the Common Tools Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite (RDC Onsite) organizes information into several pages, which are oriented towards tasks. These tasks include searching for patients or CRFs, opening patient casebooks, reviewing patient data, and printing reports. Each page has common tools and controls that you use to complete your tasks. This chapter includes the following topics: ■ Selecting Your Current Study and Site ■ Using the Patient Selection List on the Home Page ■ Sorting the Entries in a List ■ Navigating from Page to Page ■ Navigating through Long Lists ■ Searching for Patients or CRFs ■ Working with Customized News, Activities, and Links ■ Viewing a Summary Report for a Patient These pages facilitate review of data and serve as a means to navigate to the Data Entry window to work with a specific Case Report Form (CRF). The Data Entry window is a separate browser window that displays the CRF you select and open from either the Casebooks page or the Review pages. You can enter data or update a CRF only from within a Data Entry window. For more information on using the Data Entry window, see Chapter 3, "Entering and Updating Patient Data."

Selecting Your Current Study and Site 2-2 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Selecting Your Current Study and Site Before you enter or update patient data in a CRF, you should always check that you are using the correct study and site. At the top-right of the Home page and the Casebooks page, RDC Onsite displays the name of the study and site that you are currently using. For example: RDC Onsite lists the studies and sites available to you in alphabetical order. Note that: ■ When you log in the first time, RDC Onsite accesses and displays the first study and site available to you. ■ When you log in again, RDC Onsite accesses and displays the study you last visited. Available Studies and Sites The studies and sites available to you depend on the studies you are participating in, your user role, and the privileges assigned to you by the study sponsor. Most users work exclusively on a single site in a study. If that is the case for you, the study and site you work on are your only choices. You do not need to select the study and site. However, if you work on more than one study or more than one site, always check that you are using the correct study and site before you add or modify any data. The lists displayed in the Study and Site fields include only valid sites and studies. A valid site must have an investigator and at least one patient assigned. A valid study must have at least one valid site assigned. If the study or site you need is unavailable, contact your Help Desk. Your Current Study and Site To select a study and a site: 1. Open the Home page. Alternatively, you can go to the Casebooks page, which also has the same fields for selecting your study and site. 2. Click the Study field and then select a study from the list. Note that RDC Onsite inserts a --Select Site-- message into the Site field and updates the list of sites based on the study you selected: 3. Click the Site field and then select a site from the list. RDC Onsite accesses the selected study and site. Caution: Always make sure you select the site when changing studies in order to refresh the screen with current data.

Using the Patient Selection List on the Home Page Learning the Common Tools 2-3 Summary Report of the Current Study and Site You can review information and metrics about a study and site using the Study and Site Summary link located on the following pages: ■ Home page ■ Casebooks page ■ Reports page See Chapter 10, "Viewing Summary Reports" for more details on the information in the Study and Site Summary Report. Using the Patient Selection List on the Home Page When you open the Home page, the Patient Selection List displays all the patients for the current site in the study. The Patient Selection List has two major components: ■ The Patient Search pane ■ The Patients list By default, the Patient Search pane is collapsed. You can click the plus sign (+) to expand the Patient Search pane. You can then specify criteria to search for and display a subset of patients. The Patients list provides: ■ Several ways that you can select one or more patients ■ Colored icons that give you clues about the status of the data already entered ■ Information about each patient, such as patient number, date the data was last modified, and assigned casebook ■ Options for the task you want to complete once you select one or more patients

Using the Patient Selection List on the Home Page 2-4 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Select The Select column displays check boxes that let you select one or more patients. You can then select an action to execute on the selected patients. For example, you can: ■ Open the casebooks for the selected patients and enter new data ■ Review CRFs already entered for the selected patients ■ Review discrepancies or investigators comments for the selected patients ■ Generate a Patient Data Report for the selected patients Patient Icon The icon column displays a patient icon that resembles a human figure. The color of the icon is significant and provides valuable information about the patient data. Table 2–1 defines the meaning of the color of each icon. Patient Number The Patient Number column displays the system-assigned unique number for each patient. Last Modified The Last Modified column displays the date of the latest modification to the patient's data. A modification can be any of the following actions: ■ Updating data ■ Routing or resolving discrepancies ■ Verifying, approving, locking, or unlocking a CRF Casebook The Casebook column displays the name of the casebook to which the patient is assigned, or displays Unassigned if the patient is not assigned to any casebook. Table 2–1 Patient Icons Icon Color Description Gray with a question mark No data has been entered for this patient number. You can use the patient number to enter data for a new patient. White The patient data has no open discrepancies. Red The patient data has one or more active discrepancies. An active discrepancy requires attention by you or a member of your user group. Yellow The patient data has one or more other discrepancies. An other discrepancy requires attention from another user or user group.

Using the Patient Selection List on the Home Page Learning the Common Tools 2-5 Selecting Patients On many pages in RDC Onsite, you can select one or more patients for processing. You first select the patients and then you select the action you want to perform. For example, you may want to open casebooks to update CRFs, review discrepancies, review investigator comments, or generate reports. Your options for selecting patients are as follows: ■ To select one or more patients, click the check boxes in the Select column. ■ To select all patients displayed on the current page, click Select All. ■ To clear your current selection of patients, click Select None. Selecting Your Task Once you select the patients you want to process, you select the task you want to perform. The corresponding drop-down list displays a list of actions you can take on the selected patients or CRFs. The options available in the list depend on the page and on your user role. To select your next task: 1. Select one or more patients that you want to process. 2. Click the Select Patients and... field and then select the action you want to perform from the list. 3. Click Go to continue. Note: You can only select patients displayed on the current page. If you display the next or previous set of entries, RDC Onsite clears your current selection.

Sorting the Entries in a List 2-6 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Sorting the Entries in a List RDC Onsite displays information in rows and columns. You can sort the columns in ascending or descending order. For example, on the Home page, you can click any of the following column headers to sort the list based on the contents in that column: ■ Patient Number ■ Last Modified ■ Casebook When you initially open the Home page for a session, RDC Onsite automatically sorts the patient list in alphanumeric order by patient number. For example, A1, A2, A11, A12, A40, G6, J1, J2, J11. Note that the column headers do not indicate the initial sort: To sort the list in another order, click a column header. An up arrow indicates the list is sorted in ascending order; a down arrow indicates the list is sorted in descending order. You can click the same column heading to toggle between an ascending and a descending sort. Examples of Sorting Columns Because clinical studies tend to have many patients, sorting a list can help you find information quickly and efficiently. Sorting has many benefits. Sorting to Find Available Patient Numbers When you sort the Last Modified column in descending order, RDC Onsite displays the blank entries at the top of the list. A blank entry indicates that no modifications have been made, and therefore, the associated patient number has not yet been used. This sort provides an alternate way for you to locate available patients numbers when you need to enter data for a new patient.

Navigating from Page to Page Learning the Common Tools 2-7 Sorting to Find Patients with Recently Modified Data As you enter and modify data for a set of patients, you may also find it useful to sort the patient list by the Last Modified column. The ascending sort places those patients with the oldest date of modification at the top of the list, followed by the most recently modified and the blank entries (no data yet entered so no modifications). Sorting to Find Patients by Casebook If your patients all belong to the same casebook, sort on the Casebook column to group patients within the list regardless of patient number or modification date. You can then easily see the status of each patient and determine which CRFs require your attention. Unique Sort on the Patient Number Upon initial entry to the Home page or any of the Review pages, RDC Onsite sorts the entries numerically by patient number (ID). However, when you select the Patient Number column header to re-sort the list, RDC Onsite sorts the entries alphabetically. Navigating from Page to Page There are many ways to navigate from page to page. The way you choose to navigate depends on your current task and your preference for how to work. In addition, each navigation method has advantages. To navigate from page to page, you can: ■ Click one of the page tabs ■ Drill down to the appropriate page ■ Click a breadcrumb ■ Click an Activities link Using the Page Tabs You can use the page tabs to navigate from page to page in RDC Onsite. The tabs provide direct access to a page. Note that for convenient access, the page footer has four links that correspond to each page tab. You can click either a page tab or a page link to navigate directly to that page.

Navigating from Page to Page 2-8 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Whenever you navigate directly to a page by clicking a page tab or page link, RDC Onsite always resets the search criteria to the default values and displays the page in its default state. For example: ■ Whenever you click the Home tab, RDC Onsite opens the Home page, displays patient data for the current study and site, resets the search criteria to the default values, and collapses the Search pane. ■ When you click the Casebooks tab, RDC Onsite opens the Casebooks page, displays no patient data, resets the search criteria to the default values, and expands the Search pane. You can change the criteria in the Search pane; you must click Go to retrieve and display the patient data. Returning or navigating directly to a page is useful when you have finished a set of tasks in other parts of the application and are ready to begin another task. In addition, you may want to use tabs to navigate to the Casebooks and Review pages if you either have a preference for using a particular page or make frequent use of searches.

Navigating from Page to Page Learning the Common Tools 2-9 Drilling Down and Using Breadcrumbs Drilling down is the process of selecting one or more patients or CRFs, and then selecting an action. The action opens another page in the application and displays data only for the patients or CRFs you selected. You can drill down to navigate: ■ From the Home page to the Casebooks page or to any of the Review pages ■ From the Casebooks page to any of the Review pages ■ From the Review CRFs page to the Review Discrepancies page or the Review Investigator Comments page Visual Clues of Drilling Down When you drill down to a page, RDC Onsite displays several visual clues, or indicators, on the page: ■ The tabs indicate the current page. In Figure 2–1, Review CRFs is the current page. ■ Breadcrumbs, which appear directly below the page tabs, show the path you took to arrive at the current page. Breadcrumbs keep track of your location within RDC Onsite and provide a path (or trail) for you to follow back to your starting point. The greater than sign (>) separates each part of the path. You click a link to navigate back to another point in the path. ■ The title in the Search pane indicates the number of patients or CRFs you selected for the drill-down action. Figure 2–1 Breadcrumb and Selection Indicator Display Drill-down Return: Breadcrumb versus Page Tab To return from a drill-down, you can use the breadcrumbs or the page tabs. However, the functionality is not the same. For example, clicking the Casebooks breadcrumb is not the same as clicking the Casebooks tab. Each method has advantages depending on what you want to do. To return from a drill-down, you can use either of the following methods: ■ Breadcrumb — Click a link in the breadcrumb to return to that particular page. In this case, RDC Onsite re-displays the selected page and rolls back to the previous set of search parameters, patients, and CRFs. Note that this is different from what happens when you use the page tabs to return from a drill-down. ■ Page Tabs — Click the Home, Casebooks, or Review tab to navigate directly to that page. In this case, RDC Onsite re-displays the selected page in its default state and resets all search criteria to the default values.

Navigating from Page to Page 2-10 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide For the Home page, RDC Onsite displays all patients for the site, regardless of the set of patients last displayed. For the Casebooks or Review CRFs page, RDC Onsite does not display any data on the page. You must click Go in the Search pane to retrieve data. Example: Drilling Down to Casebooks and Discrepancies The following example steps through the process of drilling down from the Home page to the Casebooks page and then to the Discrepancies page. To drill down: 1. Go to the Home page. 2. Expand the Patient Search pane. 3. Search for all open discrepancies. a. Click the Discrepancy Status field and then select Open (Active&Other) from the list. b. Click Go. 4. Select five patients from the Patients list. 5. Click the Select Patients and… field and then select Open Patient Casebooks from the list. 6. Click Go. Note that RDC Onsite: ■ Opens the Casebooks page and displays only the five selected patients in the casebook spreadsheet. ■ Displays a collapsed Search pane. The title bar of the Search pane indicates that 5 patients were selected from the Home page. ■ Displays a Home > breadcrumb to indicate your path to this point. 7. Select two red or yellow colored patient icons from the casebook spreadsheet. 8. Click the Select Patients and… field and then select Review Discrepancies from the list. 9. Click Go. Note that RDC Onsite: ■ Opens the Review Discrepancies page and lists only the discrepancies for the two selected patients. ■ Displays a collapsed Search pane. The title bar of the Search pane indicates that 2 patients were selected from the Casebooks page. ■ Updates the breadcrumb trail and now displays Home > Casebooks > to indicate the path you took to get to this point. To return from the drill down, you can: ■ Click the Casebooks > breadcrumb to return to the Casebooks page. In this case, RDC Onsite displays only the five patients you previously selected from the Home page. You can now perform another action with this set of patients. ■ Click the Home > breadcrumb to return to the Home page. In this case, RDC Onsite displays only those patients that satisfy the results of your current search (only patients with open discrepancies). ■ Click a page tab. In this case, RDC Onsite opens the page in its default state and resets the search parameters to the default values for the page. Clicking a page tab is useful when you want to start a new task or work with a new set of patients.

Searching for Patients or CRFs Learning the Common Tools 2-11 Navigating through Long Lists If a list is longer than what the page can display, RDC Onsite provides navigational aids to show the next or previous sets of the full list. To navigate to other entries within a list: ■ Click the < symbol or the Previous n link to display the previous set of entries. ■ Click the > symbol or the Next n link to display the next set of entries. ■ Click the down arrow and then select the range of entries to display. Note that you can also see the total number of items retrieved as a result of the current search. ■ Drag the scroll bar up or down to view other entries on the current page. You can set your preference for how many entries RDC Onsite can display on a page. See "Setting Your Preferences for Lists and Dates" on page 1-14 for more information. Searching for Patients or CRFs Every page in RDC Onsite provides a Search pane that helps you locate and focus on the patients, CRFs, discrepancies, and reports that you need for your work. Although the available search criteria varies on each page, the Search pane provides you with many search options. For example, you can: ■ Search for patients by range or by whether any data has been entered ■ Search for CRFs that have discrepancies, need verification, or need approval ■ Search for CRFs by name or by visit In addition, you can combine search criteria to narrow your results. For example, you can search for all CRFs that are for Visit 1 and have a name of VITALS and need to be approved. For more information, see Chapter 9, "Using Search."

Working with Customized News, Activities, and Links 2-12 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Working with Customized News, Activities, and Links As shown in Figure 2–2, the Home page includes the following three sections that can be customized by your sponsor: ■ The News section ■ The Activities section ■ The Links section These sections are located on the left side of the Home page. Figure 2–2 News, Activities, and Links Sections on the Home Page

Each time you log in, scan the News section for newly listed items, and ensure you are up-to-date with the latest information specific to your study and site. When you click a News item, RDC Onsite displays the news headline and text in the News Details window. In addition, your sponsor can include a link that lets you get more information. For example, suppose a News item announces an updated terminology list. When creating the News item, your sponsor can include a link to the terminology Web site. When you click the link, RDC Onsite displays the information in a new browser window. Taking a Shortcut to Your Activities Your sponsor can customize tasks to suit your role and then display these tasks as links in the Activities section of the Home page. These links are a shortcut to your most common tasks. Your list of activities may be different from another system user. Your sponsor can define activities for a user role, a set of users, or all roles. In addition, RDC Onsite includes a default set of activities that your sponsor may or may not include. Your sponsor can add other activities as well. Contact your Help Desk for questions about the links in your Activities section. Following Your Activities Trail Clicking an Activities link on the Home page lets you navigate directly to the Review pages of the application with a built-in set of search criteria, rather than with a selected set of patients. RDC Onsite opens the appropriate page and displays the data defined by the customized search. When you navigate using Activities, the target page opens with the Search pane collapsed, and the name of the activity displayed on the pane. Note that RDC Onsite displays the Home > breadcrumb at the upper left of the page. If you click an Activities link, RDC Onsite displays the appropriate page with the data automatically filtered for you. For example, if you click the Review Active Tip: To avoid cluttering your display, close each window as you finish reading the news.

Starting Data Entry for Patients in a Clinical Study 3-2 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Starting Data Entry for Patients in a Clinical Study The general process for entering patient data involves the following tasks: ■ Selecting Your Current Study and Site ■ Finding Patients for Data Entry ■ Opening the Patient Casebooks ■ Selecting a Patient CRF for Data Entry Selecting Your Current Study and Site The studies and sites available to you depend on the studies you are participating in, your user role, and the privileges assigned to you by the study sponsor. Before you enter or update patient data in a CRF, you should always check that you are using the correct study and site. At the top-right of the Home page and the Casebooks page, RDC Onsite displays the name of the study and site that you are currently using. For example: You can click the Study and Site fields to select from those available to you. Note that: ■ When you log in the first time, RDC Onsite accesses and displays the first study and site available to you. ■ When you log in again, RDC Onsite accesses and displays the study you last visited. Most users work exclusively on a single site in a study. If that is the case for you, the study and site you work on are your only choices. You do not need to select the study and site. However, if you work on more than one study or more than one site, always check that you are using the correct study and site before you add or modify any data. The lists displayed in the Study and Site fields include only valid sites and studies. A valid site must have an investigator and at least one patient assigned. A valid study must have at least one valid site assigned. If the study or site you need is unavailable, contact your Help Desk. To select the study and site you want to access: 1. Open the Home page. 2. Click the Study field and then select a study from the list. Note that RDC Onsite inserts a --Select Site-- message into the Site field and updates the list of sites based on the study you selected: 3. Click the Site field and then select a site from the list. RDC Onsite accesses the selected study and site, and then updates the list of patients for the selected study and site. Caution: Always make sure you select the site when changing studies in order to refresh the screen with current data.

Starting Data Entry for Patients in a Clinical Study Entering and Updating Patient Data 3-3 You can similarly change your study and site from the Casebooks page. After you select your study and site, you enter search criteria and click Go to display patient data in the casebook spreadsheet. Finding Patients for Data Entry When you need to enter data for a patient for the first time, you do not actually add a patient to the study. Instead, you select an unused patient number (ID) from the Home or the Casebooks page. Some sponsors pre-assign patient numbers, so you may know exactly which one to use. In other cases, you are instructed to select the next available patient number. Unused patient numbers have grayed-out patient icons with a question mark symbol. Depending on your sponsor's instructions, you can locate a new patient number (ID) in various ways. To find a patient without entered data, you can: ■ Scroll through the patients list on the Home page to find the next available patient number ■ Filter the patient list to show only patients without data entered ■ Search for a particular patient number, or a range of patient numbers Selecting the Next Available Patient Number If your sponsor instructs you to use the next available patient number (ID) for a new patient, select one or more unused patient numbers from the list of patients on the Home page and then proceed to the Casebooks page. Alternatively, you can filter the list to display only those patients without data entered. Filtering the Patients List to Find Unused Patient Numbers You can use the search options to filter the patients list and display only those patient that have no data entered. These patient numbers are available for you to use for data entry. To filter the patients list to find unused patient numbers (IDs): 1. Open the Home page. 2. Click the (+) sign to expand the Patient Search pane. 3. Click the Show field and then select Patients with no data entered from the list. 4. Click Go to display only unused patient numbers (IDs). Finding Particular Patient Numbers If at your site, patient numbers are pre-assigned to specific patients, you need to find specific patient numbers or ranges before starting data entry.

Opening the Patient Casebooks On the Home page, you select the patient numbers (IDs) to start data entry, and then drill down to the Casebooks page to enter data against those patients. Alternatively, you can select the Casebooks tab to open the Casebooks page, and then search for the patient numbers (IDs) on that page instead. To enter data for one or more patients: 1. Open the Home page. 2. Click the check box to select one or more patients. 3. Click the Select patients and... field and then select Open Patient Casebooks from the list. 4. Click Go. The Casebooks page opens and displays the selected patients in the Casebook Spreadsheet. Note that: ■ The Search pane is collapsed, and the title in the Search pane indicates the number of patients you selected from the Home page. For example: ■ The breadcrumb displays Home > to indicate your navigation path to the Casebooks page. ■ By default, the Casebooks page displays all the CRFs expected for Visit 1 for the selected patients. You can selected another visit, search for a different set of patients, or enter data into a CRF. See "Using the Casebooks Page" on page 3-5 for more information on selecting visits, selecting patients, navigating around the page, and opening CRFs. Selecting a Patient CRF for Data Entry After you select one or more patients on the Home page and drill down to the Casebooks page, you click an empty CRF icon (a gray square with a green arrow) to open the CRF in a Data Entry window. You can now enter patient data into the selected CRF. For more information on opening CRFs, using the tools in the Data Entry window, and entering patient data, see the following sections: ■ "Using the Data Entry Window" on page 3-11 ■ "Entering Data in a CRF" on page 3-16

Using the Casebooks Page Entering and Updating Patient Data 3-5 Using the Casebooks Page The Casebooks page is a unique page in RDC Onsite. It is the only page where you can start data entry for a CRF. In addition, the Casebooks page is the only page in RDC Onsite that provides a casebook-oriented view of the expected and entered CRFs for the displayed patients in a spreadsheet format. See Figure 3–1. The Home page and the Review pages display information in a list format. To open the Casebooks page, you can: ■ Click the Casebooks tab to access the page directly ■ Select one or more patients on the Home page, and then drill down to the Casebooks page You navigate to the Casebooks page either by selecting the Casebooks tab or by drilling down from the Home page. Figure 3–1 Casebooks Page

Using the Casebooks Page 3-6 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Nonflexible and Flexible Clinical Studies The schedule for a clinical study includes the intervals (phases, periods, and subperiods), the visits (also called Clinical Planned Events or CPEs), and the CRFs. A nonflexible study follows the same schedule of treatments, visits, and assessments. Nonflexible studies have a relatively fixed schedule. On the other hand, a flexible study can have multiple pathways through the trial for different patients. There may be entire intervals (groups of visits) that are required for some treatment groups, but are not required for others. In addition, not all patients in a flexible study have the same assessments at every visit. For example, a subset of CRFs may be required for patients only if certain criteria are met, such as a detailed smoking history for smokers. For a flexible study, the study designer uses Oracle Clinical to create a conditional schedule by defining decision points. The designer identifies the particular questions and the responses to those questions that determine which intervals, visits, and CRFs are expected for patients as they progress through the clinical trial. About Expected CRFs and Visits RDC Onsite displays only the CRFs and visits that are either collected or expected for each particular patient. As you enter and update data for a particular patient, RDC Onsite automatically: ■ Checks the data against the conditional rules, if any, defined in Oracle Clinical. ■ Determines whether the data you entered satisfies one or more of the conditions defined in Oracle Clinical. Each condition may cause different CRFs and intervals to become expected. Whenever you update data that triggers a conditional rule, RDC Onsite automatically recalculates what is expected for the patient and adjusts the display of the expected CRFs and intervals as necessary. If the response to a source question meets the define rules, RDC Onsite marks the CRFs or visits as expected for the patient. Furthermore, if the response to the source question changes such that the defined rules are no longer met, any expected CRFs or intervals revert to the status of not expected for the patient. How RDC Onsite Alerts You to Changes in Expected CRFs and Visits As you enter, update, and save patient data in a CRF, some CRFs may become expected while other CRFs may no longer be expected. RDC Onsite displays a message if the expected CRFs have changed. For example, when you open a CRF in a flexible study, the CRFs that are expected may have change because another user may have entered data that caused one or more CRFs or visits to become expected. In addition, when you save a CRF, the CRFs that are expected may change based on the response data you entered. When the expected CRFs or visits change, you may notice that new CRFs were added to the Casebook Spreadsheet or that some CRFs were dropped from the spreadsheet.

Using the Casebooks Page Entering and Updating Patient Data 3-7 As shown in Figure 3–2, the Casebooks page uses the following characters to indicate which CRFs are not expected for a patient: ■ Dash (-) symbol — Indicates that the CRF is not expected for the patient. ■ Letter N beside the CRF icon — Indicates that the CRF is NO longer expected for the patient. In this case, the CRF already has data collected. However, because of an update to the data, the CRF is no longer expected (that is, not expected) for the patient. For changes in expected visits, RDC Onsite updates the list of visits in the Set Visit Focus: Visit field on the Casebooks page. The Visit field may show new or dropped visits. You can select a patient in the Patient field to display the set of visits relevant only to that patient. Figure 3–2 Casebooks Page Indicating Changes in Expected CRFs and Visits

Using the Casebooks Page 3-8 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Selecting a Visit for the Casebook Spreadsheet When working with the Casebook Spreadsheet, you use the group of Set Visit Focus fields to select a visit for the currently displayed set of patients. How you use these fields and the meaning of each field varies depending on whether you are using a flexible study or a nonflexible study. Selecting a Visit for Flexible Studies In a flexible study, all patients are assigned to a casebook. The order in which RDC Onsite displays the expected and entered CRFs is based on the casebook. For flexible studies, the Patient field is enabled. You can select all patients or a particular patient. The meaning of the Casebook field and the Visit field varies depending on the value you select in the Patient field. If the Patient field is set to All, then: ■ The Casebook field lists the set of casebooks relevant only to the patients currently displayed. When you select a Casebook, RDC Onsite reorders the CRF columns based on that casebook. ■ The Visit field lists all the visits defined for the study. When you select a visit, RDC Onsite updates the Casebook Spreadsheet with the CRFs for that visit. If the Patient field is set to a specific patient, then: ■ The Casebook field displays the name of the casebook assigned to the selected patient. You cannot change the casebook. ■ The Visit field lists the set of visits relevant only to the patient specified in the Patient field. Even if all the patients are assigned to the same casebook, the visits expected for each patient may be different. Therefore, by entering a specific patient in the Patient field, you can then select a visit from the set of visits relevant only to that patient. Selecting a Visit for Nonflexible Studies In a nonflexible study, patients may or may not be assigned to a casebook. When setting the visit for nonflexible studies: ■ The Patient field is always disabled. The value is automatically set to All. ■ The Casebook field lists all the casebooks defined for the study. For a nonflexible study, the Casebook field: – Defines the order in which RDC Onsite displays the expected and entered CRFs on the Casebooks page for each visit – Represents the casebook to use for patients not assigned to any casebook. For patients not assigned to a casebook, RDC Onsite displays the expected CRFs for the current visit based on the selected casebook. Note: The Patient field lists only the patients currently displayed in the Casebook Spreadsheet.

Using the Casebooks Page Entering and Updating Patient Data 3-9 Note that the value of the Casebook field has little effect if all patients are assigned to casebooks. ■ The Visit field lists all the visits defined for the study. Select a visit to view the associated CRFs for the currently displayed patients. You can position the mouse over the patient icon to display the name of the casebook, if any, assigned to the patient. Displaying the Study Interval with the Visit Name By default, the spreadsheet heading on the Casebooks page displays only the name of the current visit. A visit belongs to an interval in the study. An interval denotes the stage of a study and divides the study into logical groupings of visits. An interval can be a phase, a period, or a sub-period. For example, a study may have a screening phase, a dosing phase, and a follow-up phase. Your sponsor can customize the spreadsheet heading to include the name of the interval along with the name of the current visit. For example: Interval: SCREENING, Visit: Visit S1 Navigating in the Casebook Spreadsheet The Casebook Spreadsheet on the Casebooks page displays the patients in rows and the expected, visit-related CRFs in columns. The Casebook Spreadsheet page displays a maximum of ten patients at a time. You can scroll up and down to view more patients; you can scroll across (left to right) to view more CRFs within the selected visit. To navigate in the Casebook Spreadsheet, use the following controls: ■ Patients — If the list of patients is longer than what the page can display, use the up and down caret signs, the Previous and Next links, or the drop-down list to view other patients. ■ CRFs — If the number of columns is greater than what the page can display, use the left and right caret signs, the Previous and Next links, or the drop-down list to view other CRFs.

Using the Casebooks Page 3-10 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide About the CRF Icons RDC Onsite uses colored icons with various symbols and graphics to represent the current status of each CRF. For example, by looking at a CRF icon, you can determine: ■ If data entry for the CRF has started, is complete, or is on a second pass ■ If the CRF has any active discrepancies or other discrepancies ■ If the CRF has been verified or if it needs re-verification ■ If the CRF has been approved or if it needs re-approval ■ If the CRF is locked Figure 3–3 shows the CRF icons. See Appendix A, "Description of the CRF Icons" for a detailed description of each icon. Figure 3–3 CRF Icons Clicking a CRF to Enter or Update Data CRF icons appear on the Casebooks page and all Review pages. You open the Data Entry window for a specific CRF by clicking on its associated CRF icon. When the Data Entry window opens, notice that the title bar displays valuable information for the selected CRF: patient number, visit name, and CRF name, followed by study name, site name, patient number, casebook, user name, and user role. Empty CRF — The Casebooks page is the only page in RDC Onsite that displays the Entry Expected icon (square with a green arrow). This icon indicates that the CRF is empty and you are expected to fill in the data. Click the icon to open the CRF in a Data Entry window and begin to enter patient data. Entered CRF — An entered CRF contains data and is reflected in all pages. Click an entered CRF icon from the Casebook Spreadsheet or any Review page to open it in a Data Entry window and update data.

Using the Data Entry Window Entering and Updating Patient Data 3-11 Using the Data Entry Window In RDC Onsite, the Data Entry window appears in a separate browser window from the application pages. You can have up to three Data Entry windows open simultaneously. Therefore, you can have up to four RDC Onsite browser windows open at a time: one for the application page, such as the Casebooks page, and up to three Data Entry windows. All windows remain active and the title of each browser window is unique. You can return to the application page you were using, execute another search, or even navigate to another page while a Data Entry window is still open. You can change the context from which the Data Entry window was originally opened. This action has no effect on the status of the Data Entry window, or on your ability to continue work in that window. Figure 3–4 illustrates the main components of the Data Entry window. Figure 3–4 Data Entry Window Navigating in the Data Entry Window When you are entering and updating data in a CRF, the Data Window provides several options for: ■ Navigating from Field to Field ■ Navigating within the CRF ■ Navigating from CRF to CRF Navigating from Field to Field The CRF in the Data Entry window is customized by your sponsor. For questions about the layout of the form, see the training material from your sponsor.

Using the Data Entry Window 3-12 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide You can use the mouse to select and position the cursor in a field. Alternatively, you can press Tab to go to the next field (from left to right), or press Shift+Tab to go to the previous field. When you select a field, the field comes into focus. The field in focus is outlined in gray. You can then enter or change a value in the field. RDC Onsite performs a field-level validation after you move from a field. Navigating within the CRF If a CRF is too long for the Data Entry window, a vertical scroll bar appears to the right of the CRF. If a CRF is too wide for the Data Entry window, a horizontal scroll bar appears at the bottom of the page. If the CRF has multiple pages, the Data Entry window displays an additional set of page navigation tools: The number of the current page is displayed against the total number of CRF pages. You can click the icons to navigate to the first, previous, next, or last page of the CRF. Navigating from CRF to CRF When you open a Data Entry window from the Casebooks page, you can use the Previous CRF link and the Next CRF link to navigate from one CRF to another, without returning to the Casebooks page to select another CRF. The Casebooks page imposes a sequence on the CRFs, which you cannot change by re-sorting as you can on the Review pages. When you click one of these links, RDC Onsite navigates to the next or previous CRF in the sequence. These CRFs include planned CRFs with or without data, existing unplanned CRFs with data, and new CRFs that can become expected. The Previous CRF and Next CRF links: ■ Are available only if you open the CRF from the Casebooks page. ■ Are restricted to the CRFs within a single visit for a single patient. ■ Are not enabled when you create an unplanned CRF. Once you close and reopen the saved CRF, the links are active. ■ Are not enabled if you are viewing the first CRF (Previous CRF not active) or the last CRF (Next CRF not active). ■ May be disabled when you save a CRF if the casebook is re-assigned for the patient while you had the CRF open in the Data Entry window. You can also press Alt+N to open the next CRF and Alt+P to open the previous CRF in the Data Entry window.

Using the Data Entry Window Entering and Updating Patient Data 3-13 Navigation in a CRF with Hidden or Grayed Out Questions When entering data into a CRF, you may notice that some fields are grayed out and inactive. In addition, you may notice that some fields automatically become visible based on the response data you enter. About Conditional Questions When setting up the questions for a CRF, your sponsor can associate one or more conditions with a question. Your sponsor can define a data response value so that when you enter that value, other questions and fields become active, and the cursor automatically moves to a specified question within the same CRF. This technique is called conditional branching. With conditional branching, your sponsor can define a path through the CRF based on the responses you enter. For example, suppose the CRF has the following question: Are you pregnant? ■ If the patient response is Yes, an additional set of questions are now required. RDC Onsite automatically makes the questions active and positions the cursor in the first field for the pregnancy-specific questions. ■ If the patient response is No, RDC Onsite bypasses the pregnancy questions and moves the cursor to the next field. Visual Appearance of Conditional Questions When creating conditional questions for a CRF, your sponsor can customize how those questions appear when displayed in the Data Entry window. Your sponsor can choose one of the following options: ■ Gray out the section in the CRF with the conditional questions. You can see the section, but the questions remain disabled until a response value triggers the condition defined for the source question. ■ Completely hide the section in the CRF with the conditional questions. The section remains hidden until a response value triggers the condition defined for the source question. Automatic Field Navigation and Activation RDC Onsite controls the navigation from field to field based on whether your response value triggers the condition defined for the source question. When the trigger response value is entered, RDC Onsite automatically enables the appropriate section and positions the cursor in the next appropriate question.

Using the Data Entry Window 3-14 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Using the Toolbar Icons in the Data Entry Window The icons in the Data Entry window toolbar facilitate working with the CRF.

Using the Data Entry Window Entering and Updating Patient Data 3-15 Highlighting Fields in a CRF The Data Entry window uses color to highlight fields in a CRF that have discrepancies, investigator comments, audit history, or changes since a last verification or approval. To highlight specific fields in a CRF: 1. Click Highlight in the toolbar in the Data Entry window. 2. Select an option from the list. Your options for highlighting are: ■ Active Discrepancies — Highlights all fields associated with active discrepancies in red. Active discrepancies require action by your user role or group. ■ Active and Other Discrepancies — Highlights all fields associated with active discrepancies in red and all fields associated with other discrepancies in yellow. Other discrepancies require action by another user role or group. ■ Closed Discrepancies — Highlights all fields associated with a manually resolved (user closed) discrepancy in green. ■ All Discrepancies — Highlights all fields associated with active, other, and closed discrepancies in their respective colors (red, yellow, and green). ■ Investigator Comments — Highlights all fields that have an investigator comment in magenta. ■ Audit History — Highlights all fields that have changed since original data entry, and therefore have an audit history, in blue. ■ Changed since last verified — Highlights all fields that have changed since the last verification of the CRF in blue. Note that fields whose only update is an update to the investigator comment are highlighted. ■ Changed since last approved — Highlights all fields changed since the last approval of the CRF in blue. Note that fields whose only update is an update to the investigator comment are highlighted. ■ None — Highlights no fields.

Entering Data in a CRF 3-16 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Entering Data in a CRF All CRFs, whether empty or entered, already contain basic information such as the study, site, patient, CRF name, and investigator name. You must enter responses to the remaining questions in the CRF. You enter your responses into the appropriate field. Standard Text Fields versus Extended Text Fields A CRF can have one or more fields into which you insert data. When designing the layout and format of a CRF, your sponsor can define the field as a standard text field or as an extended text field. In addition, your sponsor can define the maximum number of characters allowed in the field. ■ A standard text field can have up to 200 characters. Most fields in a CRF are standard text fields. ■ An extended text field can have up to 10,000 characters. In an extended text field, you can enter lengthy comments and narratives, such as patient case history or serious adverse events. The following privileges apply to both standard text fields and extended text fields: ■ If you have browse-only privileges, you can view but not edit the data. ■ If you have update privileges, you can view and modify the data. Yellow Note Icon Indicates an Extended Text Field in the CRF When you open a CRF in the Data Entry window, RDC Onsite indicates an extended text field by displaying a yellow note icon to the right of the field. See Figure 3–5. RDC Onsite always displays the Extended Text icon regardless of whether the field has any data. Once the field has data, the Data Entry window displays the beginning of your extended text followed by the ellipsis (…) character. To view all the data associated with an extended text field, click the Extended Text icon (that is, the yellow note) to open the Show Extended Text dialog box. Alternatively, you can double-click in the field or use the right-click menu to open the Show Extended Text dialog box.

Entering Data in a CRF Entering and Updating Patient Data 3-17 Figure 3–5 Extended Text Field in the RDC Onsite Data Entry Window ATTACHMENT Prefix Indicates Extended Text Fields In the Audit History pane, the Discrepancies Details pane, and the Patient Data Reports, RDC Onsite uses the following prefix to indicate that the value is an extended text value: ATTACHMENT V <X.Y>: where X is the version number and Y is the sub-version number. The system increments these numbers each time the data in an extended text field is saved. After the ATTACHMENT prefix, RDC Onsite adds the beginning of your extended text followed by the ellipsis (…) character. For example: ATTACHMENT V<1.1>: A 21-year-old woman presented… Entering Data in a Standard Text Field To enter data in a standard text field in a CRF: 1. Open a CRF in the Data Entry window. 2.

Entering Data in a CRF 3-20 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Using Special Characters and Advanced Formatting in Extended Text Fields Like all dialog boxes, the Show Extended Text dialog box supports a simple text editor that you use to enter and edit plain text. You can enter standard keyboard alphanumeric characters, punctuation marks, and spaces. However, extended text fields: ■ Do not support special characters such as symbols, dingbats, accented letters, and ALT characters. Special characters might not display properly in all areas of the RDC Onsite application. ■ Do not support advanced formatting such as font sizes and styles, alignment, automatic line spacing, automatic numbered or bulleted lists, indents, and tables. If you copy text from a document processing application, such as Microsoft Word, RDC Onsite ignores all advanced formatting. Keep formatting plain. Use spaces to create indents; use the Enter key to create blank lines. Selecting Data from a List of Acceptable Values When defining the study database protocol, the sponsor specifies a list of acceptable values for some fields. To select a value from a pre-defined list: 1. Click any header or response field. If a list of values has been defined for the selected field, a magnifying glass icon appears. 2. Click the Magnifying Glass icon to open a dialog box and view the list of possible values for the field. Alternatively, you can press Alt+L. 3. Select a value from the list. Use the scroll bar to scroll through the list if necessary. You can also press the up and down arrow keys on the keyboard. 4. Click OK. RDC Onsite inserts your selected value into the field.

Entering Data in a CRF Entering and Updating Patient Data 3-21 Processing Validation Errors During Initial Data Entry Your sponsor defines rules your data entries must meet. For example, you cannot enter a numeral in a field defined as requiring characters. Or, you cannot enter characters in a defined date field that requires numerals. If you enter data that conflicts with defined validation rules, RDC Onsite alerts you accordingly with a Validation Error dialog box. To process a Validation Error, check that your entered data matches the source data and: ■ Enter an explanatory comment if you want. ■ Click OK if the entered data is correct. The Validation Error dialog box closes. You can resume data entry. ■ Click Cancel if the entered data is incorrect or you want to navigate back to the response field. The Validation Error dialog box closes. RDC Onsite returns the previously saved values to the response field that generated the error. Adding and Updating an Investigator Comment When you are entering or updating the patient data in a CRF, you may want to add an investigator comment to the response. You can add and update investigator comments from the Data Entry window only. In addition, you can perform these actions only if you have update privileges and if your sponsor has configured RDC Onsite to allow it. The process to add or update an investigator comment is similar. When you create an investigator comment, RDC Onsite displays an Add Investigator Comment dialog box. If you reopen a saved investigator comment, RDC Onsite displays an Update Investigator Comment dialog box. To add an investigator comment to a field in the CRF: 1. Open the CRF in the Data Entry window. 2. Position the cursor in the field you want to add the investigator comment to, and then click the Investigator Comment icon in the toolbar. Alternatively, you can right-click a field in the CRF, and then select Investigator Comment from the menu. Note: Your configuration may suppress the Validation Error dialog box from appearing during data entry or update. In that case, you must deal with discrepancies later. If the Highlight field in the toolbar is set to Active Discrepancies or Active and Other Discrepancies, you see discrepant responses highlighted in red. See Chapter 4, "Managing Discrepancies" for more information routing and resolving discrepancies.

Entering Data in a CRF Entering and Updating Patient Data 3-23 Changing Your Preferences for Data Entry The Data Entry window may display a Preferences link if your sponsor choose to include the link when installing the RDC Onsite application. If the Preferences link is available, you can customize whether RDC Onsite: ■ Gives you a choice to save the CRF as complete or incomplete ■ Alerts you if a validation error occurs during data entry or update To set your preferences for data entry: 1. Open the Data Entry window. 2. Click the Preferences link at the top of the window. The Preferences dialog box opens: 3. Select the appropriate check boxes to set your preferences for data entry. ■ If the Prompt for Save Complete check box is selected and you save a CRF, RDC Onsite prompts if you want to save the CRF as complete or incomplete. When you save a CRF as incomplete, its status is Entry Started. By saving a CRF as incomplete, you can: – Save data without raising system-generated discrepancies. – Continue data entry in the same CRF later, without being prompted for a change reason on every field input. If not selected, RDC Onsite does not prompt you with a choice of saving the CRF as complete or incomplete. ■ If the Suppress Validation Error Alert check box is not selected, RDC Onsite alerts you to possible validation errors that occur during data entry or data update. You then have the opportunity to correct the data before continuing to the next field. If selected, RDC Onsite suppresses the error message. RDC Onsite creates a discrepancy when the validation error occurs, but does not alert you to the problem. 4. Click OK to confirm your choices. Viewing CRF and Field Help Customized by Your Sponsor The content, format, and layout of CRFs used in a clinical trial vary from study to study. The information requested on each form may be unique to your study. In addition, you may need help with the type of information required in a field or have questions about a particular field. When setting up the RDC Onsite application, your sponsor has the option of creating help information for a CRF and for each data entry field in a CRF. You can then open and view this information when you are entering or updating the data in a CRF.

Updating Existing Data in a CRF 3-24 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide To view customized help for the CRF, click the Help icon in the toolbar in the Data Entry window. This icon appears only if your sponsor provided help text for the CRF. To view customized help text for a data entry field in a CRF: 1. Open a CRF in the Data Entry window. 2. Right-click a field in the CRF and then select Field Help from the menu. The Oracle Clinical Data Collection Help dialog box displays help text for the question group, help text for the question (that is, the field you selected), and details about how the field is defined in the Oracle Clinical database. Updating Existing Data in a CRF To update the existing data in a CRF, you can use any RDC Onsite page that displays CRF icons: Casebooks, Review CRFs, Review Discrepancies, and Review Investigator Comments pages. You can update data in a CRF by selecting the CRF icon for the patient, visit, and CRF you want to update. To update a response in a CRF: 1. Open a CRF in the Data Entry window. 2. Select a response field. 3. Change the value of the response. 4. Navigate to another field. Depending on the CRF status, RDC Onsite processes your change as follows: ■ For a CRF status of Entry Started (the CRF was previously saved incomplete): – If the entry you recorded is valid, the system accepts the update. – If your response evokes a validation error, the Validation Error dialog box opens. See "Processing Validation Errors During Initial Data Entry" on page 3-21 for information. ■ For a CRF status of Entry Complete: – If the entry you recorded is valid, the Reason for Change dialog box opens. See "Specifying the Reason for Changing a Data Value" on page 3-25 for details. – If your response evokes a validation error, a change reason is also generally required for the update. In this case, a combination Validation Error and Reason for Change dialog box opens. See "Processing Validation Errors During Data Update" on page 3-25 for more information. 5. Click Save to save all pending CRF changes. Note: If visible to you, the Help from the browser toolbar or main menu provides information on browser related issues. It is not the RDC Onsite Online Help that appears within the application.

Updating Existing Data in a CRF Entering and Updating Patient Data 3-25 Specifying the Reason for Changing a Data Value When you update a CRF previously saved as complete (Entry Complete status), RDC Onsite opens a Reason for Change dialog box.

Saving a CRF After entering data in the CRF, you must save your changes. Depending upon how your sponsor configures RDC Onsite, you can save a CRF as complete or as incomplete. User Initiated Save To save a CRF, click the Save icon in Data Entry window toolbar. Alternatively, you can press Alt+S. When you initiate the save of a CRF, one of the following actions can take place: ■ RDC Onsite displays a Processing... message, and then displays a Saved confirmation message, indicating a successful CRF save. The CRF is always saved as Complete. ■ RDC Onsite displays a Save Complete? dialog box. This dialog box appears only if RDC Onsite is configured to show it. See "Changing Your Preferences for Data Entry" on page 3-23 for information on configuring this prompt. The Save Complete? dialog box offers you the option of saving the CRF as Save Complete or Save Incomplete. See Figure 3–7.

Saving a CRF Entering and Updating Patient Data 3-27 Figure 3–7 Save Complete? Dialog Box Save Complete Click Save Complete if you met the form requirements and data entry is complete. After you make a choice, the Save Complete? dialog box closes. The system confirms the save through a dialog box and focus returns to the CRF. When you save complete, RDC Onsite may raise additional discrepancies. If you work with the Highlight option set to show Active, Active and Other, or All discrepancies, and you have used a Save option that does not close the CRF, newly discrepant fields are highlighted in red. To review and address those discrepancies immediately, see "Resolving and Routing Discrepancies" on page 4-14. When addressing all discrepancies at a later date, see "Finding CRFs with Discrepancies" on page 4-6. Save Incomplete Click Save Incomplete if data entry is incomplete, and you intend to complete the document later. Saving incomplete is possible if you at least fill in the header fields in the CRF. When a CRF is saved incomplete, its status is Entry Started. By saving as incomplete, you can: ■ Save data without raising system-generated discrepancies. ■ Continue data entry in the same CRF later, without being prompted for a change reason on every field input. About Missing Required Header Fields You must enter data in the header fields of a CRF before you save the CRF either as Save Complete or Save Incomplete. If you try to save the CRF without filling in the header fields, RDC Onsite highlights, and lists the required fields in a Missing Required Responses dialog box. Each field missing an entry in the CRF is highlighted with a red dashed line.

Saving a CRF 3-28 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide RDC Onsite Prompts for Saving Edits RDC Onsite automatically prompts you to save your pending changes if you attempt any of the following actions before saving the CRF: ■ Click the Previous CRF link (Alt+P) or the Next CRF link (Alt+N) if you open the CRF from the Casebooks page. ■ Click the Close icon or press Ctrl+W to close the dialog box. When you select one of these actions, RDC Onsite displays a Save Edits? dialog box. You can take one of the following actions: ■ To cancel the attempted action and return focus to the CRF, click Cancel. Pending changes remain unaltered. ■ To discard pending changes in the CRF and proceed with your selected action, click Discard. ■ To save pending changes in the CRF and return to the CRF, click Save. Effects of Discarding Changes ■ If the CRF was previously saved, the system rolls back all saved values to response and information fields, maintains the current data entry status, and closes the CRF. ■ If the CRF was not previously saved, the system clears values in all response and information fields, and closes the CRF. The CRF data entry status remains as empty. Save and Automatic Refresh Any time you save or delete a CRF, RDC Onsite checks the data and determines if there are any changes to the CRFs or intervals that are expected for the patient. If new CRFs for the current visit are now expected, then RDC Onsite automatically inserts the newly expected CRFs into the Next/Prev list in the Data Entry window. Note that: ■ RDC Onsite inserts the newly expected CRFs regardless of the CRF search criteria currently in effect. ■ RDC Onsite inserts the newly expected CRFs only if you have the proper CRF access privileges and update privileges. Note: RDC Onsite treats non-header, mandatory response fields differently from header response fields. RDC Onsite raises a discrepancy when you save without entering a response for a non-header, mandatory question.

Removing Data from a CRF Entering and Updating Patient Data 3-29 ■ RDC Onsite inserts the newly expected CRFs immediately after the current CRF. You can click Next CRF to view the newly expected CRF. ■ The newly expected CRFs may include those that have been made newly expected by another user. If CRFs with data are now no longer expected, then RDC Onsite displays the letter N (no longer expected) next to the CRF icon to indicate the change in status. Note that RDC Onsite indicates this change to the CRF icon on the Casebooks page only. Upon completion of the save, RDC Onsite alerts you with a message that the expected CRFs have changed. Changing CRF Status from Saved Incomplete Your sponsor may instruct you to save the CRF incomplete instead of complete, after your initial data entry. Saving as incomplete lets you return to the CRF, review or update data, and then save the CRF as complete. No data update is required to change the CRF status from Entry Started to Entry Complete. Removing Data from a CRF During a clinical study, patient events may occur that require CRF sections to be marked as blank or to be deleted. ■ Marking a CRF or CRF Section as Blank ■ Deleting a Row from a Repeating Question Group ■ Deleting a CRF Marking a CRF or CRF Section as Blank In certain circumstances, you may need to mark a CRF as intentionally blank; for example, if a patient fails to appear for a scheduled visit. When you mark a CRF or a CRF section as blank, its information becomes inaccessible and the section is grayed out. You can mark a CRF as blank only if you have update privileges. For the CRF currently displayed in the Data Entry window, you can mark a CRF or CRF section blank by: ■ Clicking the Blank Flag Icon ■ Selecting the Blank Flag Check Box in the CRF Note: Once a document is Saved Complete, you cannot reverse CRF status from Entry Complete to Entry Started. Note: You cannot mark a CRF or a CRF section as blank when: ■ The CRF status is Pass 2 Started, Pass 2 Pending, Pass 2 Complete, or Batch Loaded. ■ The CRF is opened in browse-only mode.

Open the CRF in the Data Entry window. 2. Click the CRF or CRF section. 3. Click the Blank Flag icon in the Data Entry window toolbar. RDC Onsite displays the CRF Blank Selection(s) Processing dialog box. 4. Select the check box for how you want to mark this data. ■ Mark this CRF as having no responses. ■ Mark section section-name (number) as having no responses. The system lists each section separately. 5. Click OK. The CRF or the related CRF section is marked blank, associated fields are grayed out, and cannot be updated. If the marked section contains data, the data remains visible until you save the CRF, but the values cannot be modified. Selecting the Blank Flag Check Box in the CRF Depending upon the design of the CRFs you use, select the Blank Flag check box in the CRF header or CRF section header. The Blank Flag check box option may not be available to you. To use the Blank Flag check box to mark CRFs as blank: 1. Click the CRF or CRF section. 2. Select the Blank Flag check box in either the CRF header or CRF section header. A CRF Blank Selection(s) Processing dialog box appears with these choices: ■ Mark entire CRF as having no responses. ■ Mark section n as having no responses. The system lists each section separately. RDC Onsite grays out the CRF or the CRF section that you marked blank. If the marked section contains data, the data remains visible but cannot be modified.

Removing Data from a CRF Entering and Updating Patient Data 3-31 Changing Between Blank and Non-blank Status If you mark a CRF or CRF section blank, and then unmark and save the CRF, the previous values appear in the CRF without being grayed out. To enter or modify data after marking a section blank: 1. Open the CRF that you marked blank in a Data Entry window. 2. Click the CRF or CRF section. 3. Deselect the Blank Flag check box. If a CRF of status Entry Complete was marked blank (sectionally or fully), and you undo the blank selection, you must provide a change reason. When you save changes after marking the CRF or a CRF section as blank, RDC Onsite deletes any existing responses in the marked sections or CRF. However, header field information is maintained. Deleting a Row from a Repeating Question Group The response fields of a repeating question group appear in many rows in the CRF. If necessary, you can delete a row from a repeating question group from within the CRF in the Data Entry window. To delete a row, you can: ■ Right-click a field in the row and select Delete Row from the menu. ■ Click a field in the row and then click the Delete Row icon in the Data Entry window toolbar. If the CRF status is Entry Complete, RDC Onsite prompts you for a change reason. Deleting a CRF You can delete a CRF only under certain circumstances. You can delete a CRF even if changes to it are pending. You cannot delete a CRF if: ■ You do not have update or batch update privileges. ■ The CRF is locked and you do not have the privileges to work with locked CRFs. ■ The CRF data is frozen. ■ The CRF is being updated by another user. To delete a CRF: 1. Open a CRF in a Data Entry window. 2. Click the Delete CRF icon (trash can) in the toolbar. RDC Onsite opens the Delete CRF dialog box. 3. Click the Change Reason field and select an explanation from the list. The Change Reason field and the Change Comment field appear only if the CRF status is Entry Complete or Blank. These fields do not appear if the CRF status is Entry Started, or Saved as Incomplete with header data entered. 4. Enter a Change Comment if the field appears. 5. Select the check box if you want RDC Onsite to remember and reuse your comment information for subsequent CRF deletions.

Printing a CRF 3-32 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide 6. Click Delete to proceed with the action. RDC Onsite prompts for confirmation that you want to delete the CRF. ■ To delete the CRF, click OK. RDC Onsite deletes the CRF and closes the Data Entry window. ■ To cancel the delete operation, click Cancel. The CRF remains at the same status. Printing a CRF Whenever you are viewing a CRF in the Data Entry window, you can print a hardcopy of the CRF. RDC Onsite uses the standard printing capabilities of Microsoft Internet Explorer to print the pages of a CRF. Internet Explorer prints the CRF pages just as it would print any Web page. Configuring Page Setup Before Printing a CRF The Page Setup options in Internet Explorer control how text outputs to the printed page. You can use the Page Setup options to define which printer to use, the page headers and footers, the page margins, and the page orientation. If the printed version of a CRF has any problems, such as text overflowing to an extra page or not all text printing on the page, verify that the Page Setup options are configured properly for your CRF format. For example, by default, Internet Explorer prints information such as page numbers, Web address, and date at the top (header) and bottom (footer) of a page. In most cases, you do not want this information to print on a CRF. To configure the page setup before printing a CRF from the Data Entry window: 1. Open the Internet Explorer File menu and then select Page Setup. The Page Setup dialog box opens. 2. Select the paper size that matches your printing paper. 3. Choose to print no information in the page headers and footers. Remove all information from the page headers and footers as follows: ■ For Internet Explorer 6 or 7, delete the text in the Header and Footer fields. ■ For Internet Explorer 8, select the -Empty- option for all the Headers and Footers fields. 4. Select the Orientation setting that matches the orientation of the CRF: ■ Portrait (CRF layout is taller than wide) ■ Landscape (CRF layout is wider than tall) Note: When you print a multi-page CRF from the Data Entry window, the first page prints correctly. Beginning with the second page, the CRF footer may be cropped at the bottom of the page and then continue to print at the top of the third page. Because of this change in text flow, the CRF pages after the first page may not print correctly.

Viewing the Audit History of a CRF Field Entering and Updating Patient Data 3-33 5. Set the value of the four margins (Left, Right, Top, and Bottom) to the minimum margin required by your printer. If you do not know the minimum settings, delete the value from the margin field. As you move from one margin field to the next, the system automatically sets the margin to the minimum value allowed for your printer. Most printers cannot print to the edge of the page and require some amount of margin. The minimum margin is defined by the printer and varies from printer to printer. 6. Click OK to close the dialog box and save your settings. Opening and Printing a CRF from the Data Entry Window To print a CRF: 1. Open a CRF in a Data Entry window. 2. Click the Print icon in the toolbar. Alternatively, you can select the Print menu option.

The Audit History Details dialog box displays the full text for each field. If the Audit History pane is already open, click a field to view its audit history. Alternatively, you can right-click a field and then select Show Audit History from the menu. RDC Onsite automatically opens the Audit History pane and displays a complete audit trail for the selected field. Audit History for Extended Text Fields Because an extended text field can have up to 10,000 characters, the information and the layout of the information in the Audit History pane is different from the layout of other fields. Specifically, the Changed From field displays only the ATTACHMENT prefix and the truncated response text. In addition, the Changed From, Changed To, and Comment fields may be lengthy for an extended text field. To display the full text for each field, click the Details button in the Audit History pane. For an extended text field, the Audit History Details dialog box: ■ Displays the Changed From field at the bottom of the list. ■ Does not display the Changed To field because of the large amount of data usually in an extended text field. You can view the data that would usually display in the Changed To field by clicking the next entry in the Audit History pane. If this entry is the most recent audit history entry, open the Show Extended Text dialog box to view the Changed To data. Using the Navigator Pane for Discrepancies and Investigator Comments The Navigator pane appears at the right edge of the Data Entry window. You use this pane to review, in list format, all discrepancies or investigator comments for a CRF. When you are entering and updating data in a CRF, you can use the Navigator pane: ■ To view detailed information about a discrepancy or an investigator comment ■ To view the history of a discrepancy or an investigator comment ■ To update a discrepancy or an investigator comment ■ To route or resolve a discrepancy

Adding Pages 3-36 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Adding Pages The Casebooks page provides options for: ■ Adding an Unplanned Visit Page ■ Adding An Other Page Adding an Unplanned Visit Page From the Casebooks page, you can add an unplanned page to a visit using a CRF that has already been used once for the visit. The Add Visit Page button is active only if you have update privileges. You can add an unplanned visit page when: ■ There is no space in the initial CRF planned for the visit, and additional information needs to be added, using the same form. In this case, RDC Onsite assigns unique sub-visit numbers to identify each of the CRF instances. ■ The patient makes an unscheduled visit. In this case, the sub-visit number correlates to a visit that happens after Visit X and before Visit Y. (You add the Visit pages to Visit X.) You can add Visit pages multiple times to include all the required CRFs for the unscheduled visit. To add a visit page: 1. Navigate to the Casebooks page. 2. Enter the search criteria for your patient and click Go. 3. Click the Visit field and select a visit number from the list. 4. Select the check box for your patient. 5. Click the Add Visit Page button. The Add Visit Page dialog box opens, listing all the planned CRFs for the current visit, patient, study, and site. a. Select the CRF that you want to add to the visit and then click Continue. RDC Onsite prompts you to select a sub-visit to add to the current visit. b. Select the sub-visit number from the list. The new CRF is identified accordingly. For example, if the sub-visit is 1 and the CRF is PE, the new visit page is PE.1. If you have previously added visit pages, there may be more than one choice for a sub-visit. If you are adding a page for lack of space in the first CRF, accept the default. Otherwise, the sub-visit number may represent actual unscheduled visit numbers, and you should choose accordingly. c. Click Apply to add the new page to the current visit. 6. Return to the Casebooks page to view the new, empty CRF icon in the designated patient row and CRF column of the Casebook Spreadsheet. Notice that a new CRF column may have been inserted, labeled with both the CRF name and the sub-visit number. 7. Click the newly inserted CRF icon to open the CRF in a Data Entry window. 8. Enter data and save the CRF.

Enter the search criteria for your patient and click Go. 3. Click the Visit field and select a visit number from the list. 4. Select the check box for your patient. 5. Click the Add Other Page button. The Add Other Page dialog box opens and lists the CRFs that you can add to the current visit for the selected patient. The dialog box also displays the study and site name. 6. Select the CRF and then click Continue. If one or more sub-visits are already added to the visit, RDC Onsite prompts you to select a sub-visit number. Select the sub-visit number and click Apply. RDC Onsite closes the dialog box and returns to the Casebooks page. If necessary, a new CRF column is added to the spreadsheet. A new, empty CRF icon appears in the appropriate column. 7. Click the newly inserted CRF icon to open the CRF in a Data Entry window. 8. Enter data and save the CRF. RDC Onsite numbers the new CRF based on the total number of planned CRFs for the visit, and the existence of other unplanned pages. For example, if the current visit has Note: The Add Visit Page dialog box lists the set of planned CRFs for the selected visit and patient. However, during the study design, one or more of these CRFs may have been identified as a CRF that cannot be used for unplanned use. Such CRFs do not appear in the selection list.

Validating Patient Data 3-38 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide three planned pages, and you add your first unplanned page with a CRF called AE, after the third CRF, then the system numbers it as 3 U1. Validating Patient Data The sponsor designs validation checks to prevent data entry errors and to streamline responses in CRFs. If you enter or update a response that does not meet specified criteria, RDC Onsite prompts you for clarification. In addition, your sponsor defines complex validation checks as well as the ones that execute when you navigate from a field after entering a value. These complex checks are executed by the Validate patient(s) option provided on the Casebooks page. According to instructions from your sponsor, you can validate patient data on completion of data entry for a visit. RDC Onsite only validates CRFs of status Entry Complete, and CRFs currently not being updated by another user. The Validate option is available only if you have update privileges. To validate patient data after data entry is complete: 1. Navigate to the Casebooks page. 2. Select one or more patients. 3. Click the Select Patients and... field and select Validate from the list. 4. Click Go. RDC Onsite prompts for confirmation that you want to validate the selected patients. 5. Click Continue. A dialog box confirms the validation of the selected patients. 6. Click Close to close the dialog box and return to the Casebooks page. RDC Onsite refreshes the patient and CRF icons in the casebook spreadsheet to reflect the validated CRFs. Note: The Add Other Page dialog box lists all CRFs in the Oracle Clinical casebook definition that are checked for unplanned use. The list excludes CRFs planned for the current visit.

4 Managing Discrepancies 4-1 4Managing Discrepancies A discrepancy is any data that falls outside of an expected range of values or is otherwise flagged during the edit check process as an error. Examples of a discrepancy are an invalid date, an age greater than the maximum age for the study, and inconsistent information across CRFs. RDC Onsite provides several ways for you to review, resolve, and route discrepancies. This chapter includes the following topics: ■ Understanding Discrepancies and the Management Process ■ Types of Discrepancies ■ Discrepancy Status ■ Finding CRFs with Discrepancies ■ Reviewing Discrepancies ■ Resolving and Routing Discrepancies

Understanding Discrepancies and the Management Process 4-2 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Understanding Discrepancies and the Management Process Discrepancy management is the process that systematically addresses discrepancies generated within a study. Correcting and managing discrepancies ensures that the data is complete, accurate, and compliant with the study protocol. Discrepancies Raised in the Validation Process RDC Onsite checks and validates patient data at the following times: ■ As you enter data or when you save a CRF, RDC Onsite executes simple edit checks and then flags any data entry errors. You can choose to correct these discrepancies immediately during the data entry process. ■ During the patient validation process, RDC Onsite executes complex edit checks, typically relating to values that do not correlate across CRFs. You can conveniently execute patient validation after you complete the data entry for a visit. ■ If patient validation is not executed, regular nightly study-wide batch validation raises the discrepancies that would ordinarily be caught by patient validation. In addition, batch validation executes edit checks that are even more complex and are not efficient to execute in an online session. Manual Discrepancies Added by Users In addition to the discrepancies that RDC Onsite generates, you can identify discrepancies by a visual review of the data. Users with the proper privileges can question information in a CRF and create a manual discrepancy for others to review. Your Goal: Resolve All Discrepancies and Ensure Clean Data For each discrepancy assigned to you, you must identify the cause, assess the error, and determine the appropriate action. You can choose to immediately resolve the discrepancy as it is raised, or you can defer the resolution for later. In addition, you can route a discrepancy to another user. Your goal is to resolve all discrepancies associated with every CRF and to ensure clean data. You use the following general procedure to manage discrepancies: ■ Search for CRFs with discrepancies ■ Open the CRF in the Data Entry window ■ Use the tools in the Data Entry window to resolve a discrepancy, route a discrepancy, or create a manual discrepancy Types of Discrepancies RDC Onsite has two types of discrepancies: ■ System-generated discrepancies ■ Manual discrepancies You can choose to resolve discrepancies as they are raised, or you can defer their resolution for later.

Types of Discrepancies Managing Discrepancies 4-3 System-Generated Discrepancies System-generated discrepancies are those discrepancies that are automatically created by RDC Onsite. These discrepancies alert you to a possible problem with a response value, or a group of response values. Your sponsor builds edit checks into the study database. RDC Onsite executes these edit checks and raises discrepancies at various points in the data entry process, including when you update data in a CRF, save a CRF, or validate a patient. In addition, RDC Onsite creates discrepancies during complex edit checks executed on a nightly basis. There are two types of system-generated discrepancies: ■ Univariate (simple) ■ Multivariate (complex) Univariate Discrepancies A univariate discrepancy, which is also called a simple discrepancy, is a discrepancy that depends on the value of a single data point. For example, demographics such as gender, age, weight, and birthdate are values with a single data point. When you enter data into a field and then exit from that field (by pressing the Tab key or clicking another field), RDC Onsite checks the data you entered. If the data is not valid for the field, RDC Onsite raises a univariate discrepancy. For example, if the current study is for patients older than 50 years of age and you enter an age of 40, RDC Onsite raises a univariate discrepancy to alert you to the problem. Univariate discrepancies typically relate to the format of the data entered, or to a value that does not meet pre-defined rules for the field. You can either resolve the discrepancy immediately, or allow the discrepancy temporarily and resolve it later. Multivariate Discrepancies A multivariate discrepancy, which is also called a complex discrepancy, is a discrepancy that is dependent on two or more data points. These data points can be within a single CRF or across multiple CRFs and visits. RDC Onsite raises multivariate discrepancies in the following cases: ■ Save a CRF. When you save a CRF by selecting Save Complete, RDC Onsite validates the patient data. If data is missing or if data does not correlate across CRFs, RDC Onsite raises a multivariate discrepancy. ■ Validate a patient. Upon completion of data entry for a visit, RDC Onsite validates the data. If values do not correlate across CRFs, RDC Onsite raises a multivariate discrepancy. ■ Run regular batch validation. If patient data is not validated upon completion of data entry for a visit, nightly batch validation ensures that discrepancies ordinarily raised by patient validation are detected. Batch validation may also execute complex edit checks that are too time-consuming for an online session.

Types of Discrepancies 4-4 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Manual Discrepancies A manual discrepancy is a discrepancy that is generated by a user, rather than by RDC Onsite. You can add a manual discrepancy to a CRF section or to a field. You can resolve discrepancies as they are raised, or defer their resolution for later. Typically, CRAs and data managers enter manual discrepancies (or queries) and route them to site users or other user groups for a response. Investigators and other site users may also create manual discrepancies. However, to enter a manual discrepancy, you must be assigned either update or update discrepancies privileges. If you have the appropriate privileges, you can enter the following types of manual discrepancies: ■ Manual field discrepancies ■ Manual section discrepancies ■ Manual internal discrepancies Manual Field Discrepancies You can enter a manual discrepancy in association with a specific response field in a CRF. Note that only one manual discrepancy can be associated with a response field regardless of discrepancy status. RDC Onsite processes manual field discrepancies as follows: ■ You enter a manual discrepancy against a response field in the CRF. ■ During the study, you resolve this manual discrepancy. ■ Once the manual discrepancy is resolved, RDC Onsite lets you add a second manual discrepancy to the same response field. When you save the second manual discrepancy, RDC Onsite overwrites the first resolved manual discrepancy with the second discrepancy because only one manual discrepancy can be associated with a response field regardless of discrepancy status. ■ You can continue to enter and resolve discrepancies for the same response field. RDC Onsite overwrites the previous resolved discrepancy with the new one you add. Manual Section Discrepancies You can enter one or more discrepancies in association with CRF sections. You can use a section discrepancy to communicate CRF-related issues among site personnel, data managers, and monitors. Unlike a field discrepancy, you can associate multiple discrepancies with a CRF section. Internal Manual Section Discrepancies Section discrepancies can be routed to an internal or hidden status. If your discrepancy management system is configured to use the hidden status, you can create a manual section discrepancy, and route it to another user group with an internal status. It is hidden from other user groups who need not be involved in the communication. Typically, this is configured for use by various user groups internal to the sponsor or CRO, not by site users. Note: The discrepancy history maintains a complete audit for the discrepancy, even when RDC Onsite overwrites previously entered and resolved discrepancies.

Discrepancy Status Managing Discrepancies 4-5 Discrepancy Status The discrepancy status is a designation that describes the current state of a CRF with regard to discrepancies. The discrepancy status describes the way a discrepancy appears to a user of a particular role. The same discrepancy at the same point in time can therefore appear differently to different users. RDC Onsite uses the following statuses to track the discrepancies in a CRF: ■ Active ■ Other ■ Hidden ■ Closed ■ None Active and Other Discrepancies Active discrepancies are those discrepancies that are assigned to you or your user role for action. Your action may be to resolve the discrepancy or to route the discrepancy to another user for resolution. Other discrepancies are those discrepancies that are assigned to another user role for action. A discrepancy that appears as Active to your user role appears as Other to another user role and vice versa. An open status refers to CRFs that have active discrepancies, other discrepancies, or both. Open discrepancies require action and resolution. The status of a discrepancy changes when you either resolve it or route it. If you resolve a discrepancy, its status changes from open to closed. However, if you only update the discrepancy, for example, by editing comments, its status does not change. Hidden Discrepancies A hidden discrepancy is a discrepancy that you cannot see because of your user role. Closed Discrepancies A closed discrepancy is a resolved discrepancy. To close a discrepancy, you must specify a resolution reason that is saved as part of the discrepancy record. A system-generated discrepancy becomes obsolete if you update data in conformance with the edit checks. Specifically, the discrepancy becomes obsolete whenever the edit check that originally raised the discrepancy is executed again: upon updating the field, saving the CRF, validating the patient, or running batch validation. RDC Onsite does not display obsolete discrepancies but does maintain an audit history for the field. You can manually resolve, and thereby close, both system-generated and manual discrepancies. You can resolve a discrepancy by correcting the data, updating the data, responding to a monitor's query, or re-confirming data veracity. A clean status refers to CRFs that have either no discrepancies or only closed discrepancies (none or closed).

Finding CRFs with Discrepancies 4-6 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Colors Indicate Discrepancy Status RDC Onsite uses color to indicate the status of discrepancies in a CRF. For example, to alert you to an active discrepancy, RDC Onsite highlights all patient icons and CRF icons related to the particular discrepancy in red. Similarly, to mark discrepancies with a status of other, RDC Onsite highlights all icons in yellow. See Table 4–1 for more information on the colors that RDC Onsite uses to indicate the discrepancy status. Finding CRFs with Discrepancies Your options for finding CRFs with discrepancies are: ■ Specifying Discrepancy Search Criteria ■ Using a Discrepancies Activities Link ■ Letting Color Guide You to Discrepancies After you find CRFs with discrepancies, you open a CRF in the Data Entry window to take action on the discrepancies in that CRF. Your action may be to correct the discrepancy, close the discrepancy, or route the discrepancy to another user. Note that you can use the Review Discrepancies page, the Casebooks page, and the Review CRFs page to find and review the discrepancies in a CRF. However, the way in which RDC Onsite displays and groups the information about discrepancies is different on each page. Depending on your work habits, you may have a preference for which page you want to use. See "Reviewing Discrepancies" on page 4-9 for more information using each page. Specifying Discrepancy Search Criteria You can use the various search criteria to find discrepancies based on their status. The search options available to you depends on the page you select.

Finding CRFs with Discrepancies Managing Discrepancies 4-7 On the Home page, the discrepancy status is a patient-level search parameter. On the Casebooks page and the Review CRFs page, the discrepancy status is a CRF-level search parameter. To find CRFs with specific types of discrepancies, you can select the following search criteria: ■ All — Retrieves all CRFs regardless of discrepancy status. All is the default value. ■ Active — Retrieves CRFs with any active discrepancies; does not retrieve CRFs that have only hidden discrepancies. Active discrepancies are those discrepancies that are assigned to you or your user role for action. ■ Other — Retrieves CRFs with other discrepancies; does not retrieve CRFs that have only hidden discrepancies. Other discrepancies are those discrepancies that are assigned to another user role for action. ■ Open (Active & Other) — Retrieves CRFs with active or other discrepancies; does not retrieve CRFs that have only hidden discrepancies. ■ Clean (None or Closed) — Retrieves CRFs with no discrepancies or with closed discrepancies, as well as CRFs that have only hidden discrepancies. On the Review Discrepancies page, the Clean option is replaced by Closed. If you select Closed, the search does not retrieve hidden closed discrepancies. To find CRFs that have discrepancies: 1. Open one of the following pages: ■ Review Discrepancies page ■ Home page ■ Casebooks pages ■ Review CRFs page 2. Click + to expand the Search pane. Note that the set of search fields available to you depends on the page you selected. 3. Select the type of discrepancy that you want to find. 4. Use the other search fields to specify one or more additional criteria and further restrict the search. For example, you can: ■ Search only for CRFs that have a discrepancy status of active. ■ Search only for CRFs that have a discrepancy status of active AND are in the patient range from 1 to 100. ■ Search only for CRFs that have a discrepancy status of active AND are in the patient range from 1 to 100 AND have a CRF name of Vitals. 5. Click Go to execute the search. RDC Onsite displays the CRFs or patients that match your search criteria. You can click on any CRF to open the CRF in the Data Entry window and update the discrepancies for that CRF. See "Resolving and Routing Discrepancies" on page 4-14 for more information. Note: On the Review Discrepancies page, the Active, Other, and Open options do not retrieve hidden discrepancies.

Finding CRFs with Discrepancies 4-8 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Note that from the Home page, you first select the patients with discrepancies that you want to review. You can then drill down to the Review Discrepancies page or the Casebooks page to open a CRF in the Data Entry window. Using a Discrepancies Activities Link The Activities section on the Home page can include links to some of your common tasks. Your sponsor creates, customizes, and labels all the links in the Activities section. These links, if defined, are valuable shortcuts to your daily activities. Your sponsor may choose to include one or more links to help you review discrepancies. For example, your sponsor can create a Review n Active Discrepancies link, where n represents the number of discrepancies that are your responsibility. When you click the Review n Active Discrepancies link, RDC Onsite automatically: ■ Executes the search that your sponsor defined when creating the link ■ Opens the Review Discrepancies page ■ Lists all the active discrepancies across all the patients and CRFs for the current site Your sponsor can name the link differently or customize links to filter discrepancies according to different criteria. Note that after you click a customized link, you always have the option to expand the Search pane and specify a smaller subset of patients or CRFs to review or update. Letting Color Guide You to Discrepancies RDC Onsite uses color to indicate the status of the discrepancies, if any, in a CRF. For the patient icons and the CRF icons, RDC Onsite uses: ■ Red to indicate active discrepancies ■ Yellow to indicate other discrepancies ■ White to indicate no discrepancies You can let these colors be your guide to finding CRFs with discrepancies.

Reviewing Discrepancies Managing Discrepancies 4-9 Reviewing Discrepancies To find, order, organize, and review CRFs with discrepancies, you can use the Review Discrepancies page, the Casebooks page, or the Review CRFs page. The way in which RDC Onsite displays and groups the information about discrepancies is different on each page. Depending on your work habits, you may have a preference for which page you want to use. The following sections describe the advantages and details for using each page: ■ Working with the Review Discrepancies Page ■ Using the Casebooks Page to Review Discrepancies ■ Using the Review CRFs Page to Review Discrepancies Working with the Review Discrepancies Page The Review Discrepancies page provides a list of discrepancies that you can scroll through and sort. See Figure 4–1. Each row contains the information for one discrepancy. If a CRF has more than one discrepancy, RDC Onsite lists each discrepancy for that CRF in its own row. The columns display the following information about each discrepancy: ■ The patient number ■ The visit name and date ■ The CRF name, the question or section in the CRF, and the response that caused the discrepancy ■ The review status for the discrepancy ■ A description of the discrepancy Figure 4–1 Review Discrepancies Page

Reviewing Discrepancies 4-10 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide The Review Discrepancies page is especially useful for managing discrepancies because you can glance at the discrepancies across CRFs and look for patterns. You can view a brief description of each discrepancy without opening the CRF. Other advantages of using the Review Discrepancies page to manage your discrepancies include: ■ You can sort discrepancies by any column, such as by CRF name or by description. Sorting lets you organize your work. ■ You can examine the details and history of a discrepancy without opening the CRF. ■ You can preview discrepancies to organize them, determine priorities, and assess which ones to resolve or route. Navigating to the Review Discrepancies Page To navigate to the Review Discrepancies page, you can use any of the following methods: ■ Select a customized activity on the Home page. ■ Open the Review Discrepancies page directly and then search for CRFs with discrepancies. ■ Drill down to the Review Discrepancies page with a patient selection from the Home page or the Casebooks page. ■ Drill down to the Review Discrepancies page with a CRF selection from the Review CRFs page. Once you navigate to the Review Discrepancies page, you can: ■ Review the information displayed on the Review Discrepancies page and sort the columns before deciding on which discrepancies to address. ■ Click a CRF icon to open the CRF in the Data Entry window and work on the selected discrepancy. ■ Click Clear to remove the current search criteria and then re-enter a different search. Sorting Discrepancies Before you begin to resolve or route discrepancies, you may want to sort the list of discrepancies to help you organize your work. By default, the Review Discrepancies page lists discrepancies in ascending order by patient number. However, you can click any column header to sort the list by the contents of that column. You can sort the list in ascending order or descending order. An up arrow in the selected column indicates the list is sorted in ascending order; a down arrow indicates the list is sorted in descending order. You can click the same column heading to toggle between an ascending and a descending sort. Sorting the list may also provide clues about CRF questions that often produce a discrepancy or about common data entry problems that need to be addressed. For example, you can: ■ Sort by Description to find any preponderance of a particular type of discrepancy. ■ Sort by Question/Section to see those questions that often produce a discrepancy.

Reviewing Discrepancies Managing Discrepancies 4-11 ■ Sort by Review Status to group discrepancies according to their current status. ■ Sort by Visit Date to view discrepancies by the date of the visit. Viewing the Details of a Discrepancy On the Review Discrepancies page, click the Detail icon in the Detail column to review any related values and a discrepancy history without having to open the CRF. See Figure 4–2. For multivariate discrepancies, the Review Discrepancies page also displays a MULTI link in the Question/Section column and the Response column. You can click either the MULTI link or the Detail icon to view more information about a multivariate discrepancy. Viewing additional details is especially useful when a multivariate discrepancy involves more than one CRF. For example, suppose the birthdate in the Demography CRF indicates the patient is 84 years old, but the Inclusion/Exclusion CRF indicates the patient is between 30 and 55 years. The discrepancy appears for the primary CRF, which is the Inclusion/Exclusion CRF in this example. To view details and then take action on a multivariate discrepancy: 1. Open the Review Discrepancies page. 2. Sort by Description to find a group of the same type of multivariate discrepancy. 3. Select the Detail icon for a discrepancy. 4. Review the Related Values section of the Discrepancy Details pane. This section lists the CRFs involved with the discrepancy. The Related Values section does not display entries for related values from any CRFs that are hidden based on your user role. 5. Select one CRF icon after the other, to view both the contributing CRFs in adjacent windows. Decide on your course of action, perhaps updating data in one or the other of the CRFs. Note: Depending on how you prefer to work or what your current task involves, limiting the search may be more useful than sorting the columns. For the patient number, the visit name, and the CRF name, you can sort the list of discrepancies on those columns. Alternatively, you can enter Search criteria into the corresponding fields (Patient Range, Visit, and CRF Name) to limit the number of discrepancies found. For example, you can search only for discrepancies in the CRFs for Visit 3. In this case, you would not need to sort the list by Visit Name because the list would only include CRF discrepancies for Visit 3.

Reviewing Discrepancies 4-12 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Figure 4–2 Viewing the Details of a Discrepancy Discrepancies and Extended Text Fields You can add discrepancies to an extended text field. However, discrepancy listings for such fields do not display the complete extended text. Instead, a discrepancy listing displays the ATTACHMENT prefix followed by a truncated response text. The system reserves 24 characters of the defined field length for the ATTACHMENT prefix. Therefore, the number of characters in the truncated response text is calculated as follows: Characters in Truncated Reponse Text = Defined Field Length – 24 Extended text fields support the following types of discrepancies: ■ Manual discrepancies. ■ Multivariate discrepancies. Note that RDC Onsite runs this against the truncated response text, not the complete extended text. ■ Hidden discrepancies. In the Discrepancies Details pane, you can view only the ATTACHMENT prefix and the truncated response text.

Reviewing Discrepancies Managing Discrepancies 4-13 Using the Casebooks Page to Review Discrepancies The Casebooks page organizes CRF icons in patient rows and CRF columns in casebook order. This organization can be useful in finding discrepancies on a patient-by-patient or visit-by-visit basis. Managing discrepancies from the Casebooks page has another advantage. When you open a CRF from the Casebooks page, the Next CRF and Previous CRF links are available in the Data Entry window. You can use these links to cycle through the CRFs and discrepancies for the selected patient, without having to return to the Casebooks page. Using a Filtered Casebook Spreadsheet View When you use the Next CRF and Previous CRF links along with search criteria, you can filter the casebook and display only the CRFs needed for your work. For example, you can search for and display only CRFs with active discrepancies. In this case, clicking the Next CRF link in the Data Entry window navigates only to the CRFs with active discrepancies, skipping empty CRFs and CRFs with no active discrepancies, without having to return to the Casebooks page. Furthermore, the Casebooks page displays only those CRFs that have active discrepancies for the filtered patients, resulting in a sparsely populated spreadsheet. For this example, the Casebook spreadsheet: ■ Displays all red CRF icons. (Icons are red because of the Active discrepancy search criteria. The display changes based on the specified search criteria.) ■ Does not display CRF icons where data is expected, or where data has been entered, but the CRF has no active discrepancies. Using a Non-filtered Casebook Spreadsheet View If you prefer to see CRF icons for all entered data, select All in the Discrepancy field in the Search pane. When you execute the search, RDC Onsite refreshes the spreadsheet on the Casebooks page. The spreadsheet still displays only patients with discrepancies, but you see all entered CRFs for those patients, with or without discrepancies. You can then select any CRF icon to open it in the Data Entry window and take action on the discrepancies. Using the Review CRFs Page to Review Discrepancies The Review CRFs page displays CRFs with discrepancies in a list format that you can scroll through and sort. Similar to the Casebooks page, you can use the Review CRFs page to identify all CRFs with discrepancies. The Review CRFs page provides additional information about each CRF, including the dates on which the CRF was last modified, verified, approved, and locked. You can sort the CRF list by any of the date fields. For example, sort by the Modified Date to work on the oldest CRFs first. Tip: Select the Show Timestamps check box to view time stamps in the date fields.

Resolving and Routing Discrepancies 4-14 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Resolving and Routing Discrepancies After you search for and identify CRFs with discrepancies, you can click a CRF icon to open the CRF in a Data Entry window and take action on a discrepancy. While the Data Entry window is open, you can decide to work on one, some, or all the discrepancies for that CRF. Topics in this section include: ■ Highlighting the Discrepancies in a CRF ■ Reviewing Discrepancies in the Navigator Pane ■ Taking Action on Discrepancies ■ Creating and Routing Manual Discrepancies Highlighting the Discrepancies in a CRF The Data Entry window uses the following colors to highlight the different types discrepancies in a CRF: ■ Red highlights fields with active discrepancies ■ Yellow highlights fields with other discrepancies ■ Green highlights fields with closed (manually resolved) discrepancies To highlight the fields that have one or more discrepancies: 1. Click Highlight in the toolbar in the Data Entry window. 2. Select an option from the list. Your options for highlighting discrepancies are: ■ Active Discrepancies — Highlights all fields associated with active discrepancies in red. Active discrepancies require action by your user role or group. Note: RDC Onsite highlights fields according to the discrepancy that takes precedence. If a field has various discrepancies, then active discrepancies take precedence over other and closed discrepancies, and other discrepancies take precedence over closed discrepancies. For example, if a field has both active and other discrepancies, then RDC Onsite highlights the field in red. In addition, RDC Onsite does not highlight fields that have only hidden discrepancies.

Resolving and Routing Discrepancies Managing Discrepancies 4-15 ■ Active and Other Discrepancies — Highlights all fields associated with active discrepancies in red and all fields associated with other discrepancies in yellow. Other discrepancies require action by another user role or group. ■ Closed Discrepancies — Highlights all fields associated with a manually resolved (user closed) discrepancy in green. ■ All Discrepancies — Highlights all fields associated with active, other, and closed discrepancies in their respective colors (red, yellow, and green). ■ None — Highlights no fields. Reviewing Discrepancies in the Navigator Pane The Navigator pane, shown in Figure 4–3, displays on the right side of the Data Entry window. You use the Navigator pane to review, in list format, all discrepancies for a CRF. As you navigate through the list of discrepancies, the cursor simultaneously navigates through the associated fields in the CRF. Figure 4–3 Reviewing Discrepancies in the Navigator Pane

Select the discrepancy you want to work with from the list. Note that: ■ The Details pane refreshes and displays more information about the discrepancy. ■ The discrepancy you selected in the List pane is highlighted in blue, and the associated field (or fields if multiple fields are associated with the discrepancy) in the CRF is outlined with a blue dashed line. ■ If you also selected a Highlight option, then the discrepant field is additionally highlighted. For long lists, use the scroll bar to view additional information in the List pane. In addition, click the + or - icon in the title bar to expand or collapse the pane.

Resolving and Routing Discrepancies Managing Discrepancies 4-17 Reviewing Discrepancy Information in the Details Pane Once you select a discrepancy in the List pane of the Navigator, the Details pane displays additional information about the selected discrepancy. The information, which varies depending on the current status of the discrepancy and on how your sponsor customized RDC Onsite, can include: ■ Description — A description of the discrepancy. ■ Type — The type of discrepancy, for example, manual or univariate. ■ Created By — The name of the user who created the discrepancy. If this is a manual field or section discrepancy, the user role is included after the user name. Note that this entry displays the name of the user who created the discrepancy. For the name of the user who last updated the discrepancy, click History to view the Discrepancy History dialog box. ■ Review Status — The current review status of the discrepancy. ■ Reason — The reason for the discrepancy. Note that the reason does not display if this is a multivariate discrepancy. ■ Comment — Additional comment information, if entered when creating the discrepancy. ■ Resolution — The resolution reason and the resolution comment, if the discrepancy was closed. ■ Last Updated — The date and time the discrepancy was last updated. ■ Discrepancy ID — The ID for the discrepancy. This information displays only if your sponsor customized RDC Onsite to include the ID. If necessary, use the scroll bars to view additional information in the Details pane. In addition, click the + or - icon in the title bar to expand or collapse the pane. Viewing the History of a Discrepancy Click the History button in the Details pane to view the history of the currently selected discrepancy. The Discrepancy History dialog box displays the Date, Description, Updated by, Review Status, Comment, Resolution Reason, and Resolution Comment.

Resolving and Routing Discrepancies 4-18 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Viewing Related Values for Multivariate Discrepancies A multivariate discrepancy is a discrepancy that is dependent on two or more data points, or values. These data values can be within a single CRF or across multiple CRFs and visits. When you select a multivariate discrepancy, you can click the Related Values button in the Details pane to list all reported values associated with the multivariate discrepancy. For each value, the Related Values dialog box displays the CRF Name, the Visit, and the Question/Variable. The Question/Variable column displays either the Question name or the Validation Procedure variable name associated with the discrepancy. A Validation Procedure variable is a calculated value. The variable might be used to process a validation check or to provide relevant information for discrepancy review. For repeating groups, the Row Number displays in parenthesis next to the Question/Variable name. Reviewing the Audit History for a Discrepancy If the discrepancy you selected in the Navigator pane has an audit history, you can view the audit trail by opening the Audit History pane at the bottom of the Data Entry window. If a selected discrepancy is associated with multiple fields in the CRF (as with multivariate discrepancies), then the Audit History pane displays no information. Updating Discrepancy Comments While reviewing a discrepancy in the Data Entry window, you can update its associated comment. To update a discrepancy comment: 1. Open the Navigator pane. 2. Click the Discrepancy tab. 3. Select the discrepancy you want to work with from those shown in the List pane. 4. Click the Update icon. The Update Discrepancy dialog box opens. 5. Update the comment with your changes. In addition, you can update the discrepancy description in the following situations: ■ If the discrepancy is either a manual field discrepancy or a manual section discrepancy, you can modify the description text by typing in the field. You can enter up to 2000 characters. When you click OK, RDC Onsite verifies the number of characters in the field. If you entered more than 2000 characters, RDC Onsite forces you shorten the description before continuing. ■ If the discrepancy is a system-generated discrepancy and more than one standard text exists for the category and type of discrepancy, you can select from a list of values containing the standard text. 6. Click OK to save your changes.

Resolving and Routing Discrepancies Managing Discrepancies 4-19 Taking Action on Discrepancies You can use the Navigator pane in the Data Entry window to take action on the accumulated discrepancies for a CRF. These discrepancies include those raised during the validation process, as well as queries manually raised by monitors and data managers also using RDC Onsite. Types of Discrepancy Actions There are two types of discrepancy actions: routing and resolution. Routing actions assign the discrepancy to the members of another user group (that is, users with a certain role). For example, the Send to site action assigns the discrepancy to the Site user role. When you route a discrepancy, you can include a comment that RDC Onsite saves with the discrepancy. In contrast, resolution actions immediately close the discrepancy. When you close a discrepancy, you must provide a resolution reason. In addition, you can enter a resolution comment. By default, RDC Onsite provides the following standard routing and resolution actions that you can take to process a discrepancy: ■ Send to site ■ Send for classification ■ Closed - resolved ■ Closed - no resolution However, your sponsor can customize and rename these default actions, assign the actions to particular user roles, and add other discrepancy actions. Acting on Active versus Other Discrepancies Open discrepancies require action and resolution. An open discrepancy can have a status of active or other. By default, RDC Onsite does not prevent you from taking action against any open discrepancy, regardless of whether the status is active or other. Your sponsor, however, can customize RDC Onsite so you can only take action on active discrepancies. In this case, you can view discrepancies with a status of other, but you cannot route or resolve these discrepancies. Routing Discrepancies You alert a different user group (users with a certain role) to the presence of a discrepancy by routing it. Routing causes discrepancy status to change from active to other. If the appropriate highlight option is chosen, RDC Onsite then highlights the associated other discrepancy icons in yellow. To route a discrepancy: 1. Click a CRF icon to open it in the Data Entry window. 2. Open the Navigator pane and select a discrepancy from the list. 3. Click the Action field and select an action from the list. The available actions are specific to your role. For example, a CRA can send a discrepancy to site (Send to Site) or to a manager (Send to Data Manager).

Resolving and Routing Discrepancies 4-20 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide 4. Click Go. A Discrepancy Action dialog box opens and displays your selected action in its title. The Review Status displays the future selected status of the discrepancy. 5. Modify, if required, the description of a user-entered discrepancy, or select a value from the list, if available. 6. Enter a Comment if you want, explaining why the discrepancy is being routed. 7. Click OK to route the discrepancy. If you route a discrepancy to a hidden status, RDC Onsite removes it from the list and the discrepancy is no longer visible. Resolving Discrepancies As you use the Data Entry window and its Navigator pane to review discrepancies, you may find discrepancies that you can resolve. To resolve a discrepancy: 1. Click a CRF icon to open it in the Data Entry window. 2. Open the Navigator pane and select a discrepancy from the list. 3. Click the Action field and then select an action to close or resolve the discrepancy. Actions are appropriate and specific to your role. 4. Click Go. A Discrepancy Action dialog box opens and displays your selected action in its title. The Review Status displays the future selected status of the discrepancy, for example, RESOLVED. 5. Click the Resolution Reason field and select a reason from the list. If no default values exist, the list is empty. You must enter a resolution reason into this mandatory field. 6.

Select this option only if you intend to reuse the same comment. 8. Click OK to resolve the discrepancy. When you resolve a discrepancy, RDC Onsite changes the color of its associated icons to green, if the appropriate highlighting option is selected. After you resolve or close a discrepancy, it cannot be updated nor can you perform any action on it. Creating and Routing Manual Discrepancies With the appropriate privileges, you can create a manual discrepancy for a response field or a CRF section. You can create only one manual discrepancy for a field in a CRF. Note that if a field has an existing manual discrepancy and the review status is CLOSED, then you can create a new manual discrepancy on the field. In this case, RDC Onsite re-opens the existing manual discrepancy. However, if any of the following conditions exist, RDC Onsite grays out the Field Discrepancy option in the Add Discrepancy dialog box: ■ If a non-closed manual discrepancy already exists on a field, you cannot create another manual discrepancy on the same field. You can view the existing discrepancy, but you cannot create a new manual discrepancy. ■ If a hidden, non-closed manual discrepancy exists on a field, you cannot create another manual discrepancy on the same field. In this case, you cannot see the hidden manual discrepancy associated with the field. ■ If your user role has update discrepancy privileges only and the CRF is not Pass 1 complete, you cannot create a manual discrepancy. To create and route a manual discrepancy: 1. Open the CRF in the Data Entry window. ■ To add a manual discrepancy to a field, select the field. ■ To add a manual discrepancy to a section, either select a response field in the section or click the section discrepancy bar to select the section. Note: RDC Onsite remembers the Resolution Reason you specified and the Resolution Comment you entered (provided you selected the remember comment check box), until you: ■ Enter a different reason or comment ■ Change your study ■ Log out of RDC Onsite

5 Reviewing Investigator Comments 5-1 5Reviewing Investigator Comments During the data entry process, you can add an investigator comment, such as an observation or an assessment note, to a CRF response. For example, a physician may include the following notation next to the diastolic blood pressure on a patient’s chart: “This BP is in the normal range for this patient.” Investigator comments provide a way for you to enter such notes or observations. Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite (RDC Onsite) stores the comment with the response data. This chapter includes the following topics: ■ Working with the Review Investigator Comments Page ■ Reviewing Investigator Comments from the Data Entry Window ■ Adding and Updating an Investigator Comment Note: If your sponsor has configured RDC Onsite to allow investigator comments, all users can display and review all entered comments. However, you can add and modify investigator comments only if you have update privileges.

Working with the Review Investigator Comments Page 5-2 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Working with the Review Investigator Comments Page The Review Investigator Comments page provides a list of investigator comments that you can scroll through and sort. See Figure 5–1. Each row contains the information for one investigator comment. If a CRF has more than one investigator comment, RDC Onsite lists each comment for that CRF in its own row. The columns display the following information about each investigator comment: ■ The patient number ■ The visit name and date ■ The CRF name ■ The question and response that required an investigator comment ■ The text of the investigator comment ■ The date the comment was last modified Figure 5–1 Review Investigator Comments Page Navigating to the Review Investigator Comments Page To navigate to the Review Investigator Comments page, you can: ■ Use the page tabs for direct access ■ Select a custom Activities link, if available ■ Drill down to the page with a selection of patients or CRFs from the Home page, the Casebooks page, or the Review CRFs page Accessing the Review Investigator Comments Page Directly To open the Review Investigator Comments page directly: 1.

About Special Listings 6-2 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide About Special Listings Using the Oracle Thesaurus Management System (TMS), your sponsor configures and customizes special listings for RDC Onsite by mapping CRF questions to a dictionary in TMS. The types of special listings available in RDC Onsite are based on verbatim terms. Verbatim terms require codification in TMS. Adverse events (AEs) and concomitant medications (ConMeds) are types of verbatim terms, but your installation may include other types as well. Although the CRF questions are mapped to dictionaries, the full name of the special listing also includes the name of the CRF section that includes the mapped question. By default, the name of a special listing uses the following format: TMS-Dictionary-Name/CRF-Section-Name For example, MedDRA/AES. In addition, when you view the list of available special listings from the Home page or the Casebooks page, RDC Onsite precedes the name with the word Review. For example, you may see the following entries: ■ Review MedDRA/AES ■ Review WHO/ConMeds Finally, your sponsor can further customize the name of a special listing by substituting the dictionary name for a text string that may be more meaningful to you. For example: ■ Review Adverse Events/AES ■ Review Concomitant Meds/ConMeds

Click the Select Patients and... field and select Approve from the list. ■ From the Review CRFs page, select one or more CRFs to approve. Click the Select CRFs and... field and select Approve from the list. 2. Click Go. The Group Approval dialog box opens and displays the following information: ■ The number of CRFs selected ■ The number of selected CRFs with open discrepancies ■ The number of unverified CRFs ■ The number of patients you selected (if you started with a patient selection on the Casebooks page) 3. Enter a comment in the Approval Comment field, if you want. 4. Clear the Skip CRFs with discrepancies check box if you want to approve such CRFs. The check box is selected by default. 5. Clear the Skip CRFs that have not been verified check box if you want to approve such CRFs. The check box is selected by default. 6. Click Continue to proceed with the group approval. RDC Onsite prompts for confirmation before continuing. 7. Click Yes. RDC Onsite approves all the selected CRFs. A dialog box reports when the approval is complete, and displays the total number of CRFs that were approved. 8. Click Close to close the dialog box. RDC Onsite automatically refreshes the page and updates the approval status of the affected CRF icons. Note: If the Approve option does not appear in the list, either you do not have appropriate privileges, or your sponsor has not configured RDC Onsite for group approval.

Undoing Approval of Multiple CRFs Approving CRFs 8-9 Undoing Approval of Multiple CRFs If you unintentionally approve a group of CRFs, you can reverse the action with the Undo Group Approval option. You can undo approval of multiple CRFs simultaneously from the Casebooks page or the Review CRFs page. The Undo Group Approval option is available only if you have the appropriate privileges, and your sponsor has configured RDC Onsite to allow it. To undo the approval of a group of CRFs: 1. Open the Casebooks page or the Review CRFs page. ■ From the Casebooks page, select the patients that you need to undo the approval of their CRFs. Click the Select Patients and... field and select UnApprove from the list. ■ From the Review CRFs page, select one or more CRFs for which you need to undo the approval. Click the Select CRFs and... field and select UnApprove from the list. 2. Click Go. The UnApprove CRFs dialog box opens and displays the following information: ■ The number of CRFs selected ■ The number of patients you selected (if you started with a patient selection on the Casebooks page) 3. Enter the user name and password that you specify when you log in to the RDC Onsite application. 4. Enter a comment, if you want. 5. Click Continue to proceed with undoing the group approval. RDC Onsite prompts you for confirmation before continuing. 6. Click Yes. RDC Onsite undoes the approval of the selected CRFs. A dialog box reports when the unapprove operation is complete, and displays the total number of CRFs that were unapproved. Note: The number of CRFs approved may be less than the number of CRFs selected for any of the following reasons: ■ The Skip CRFs that have not been verified check box is selected. ■ The Skip CRFs with discrepancies check box is selected. ■ The CRF is already approved. ■ The CRF has a database lock (another user or a validation procedure is updating the CRF). ■ The CRF has an Oracle Clinical lock. ■ The CRF is entered from another site. ■ The CRF is at status Received or Entry Started. Note: If the UnApprove option does not appear in the list, either you do not have appropriate privileges, or your sponsor has not configured RDC Onsite for the undo group approval.

About the Approve CRFs Dialog Box 8-10 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide 7. Click Close to close the dialog box. RDC Onsite automatically refreshes the page and updates the approval status of the affected CRF icons. About the Approve CRFs Dialog Box RDC Onsite prompts you to enter your username and password before you approve a CRF or undo the approval of a CRF. The following rules apply: ■ For the first CRF approval action, enter the same user name and password that you use to log in to RDC Onsite. ■ For subsequent approvals, you only need to enter your password. However, if your session times out in between, you need to enter both your user name and password. Contact your Help Desk for information on the timeout period. ■ RDC Onsite allows three attempts to enter the correct password. After three failed attempts, RDC Onsite displays a warning that the Data Entry window will close and your session will end. Click OK to close the window and end your session.

9 Using Search 9-1 9Using Search Every page in RDC Onsite provides a Search pane that helps you locate and focus on the patients, CRFs, discrepancies, and reports that you need for your work. Although the available search criteria varies on each page, the Search pane provides you with many search options. For example, you can: ■ Search for patients by range or by whether any data has been entered ■ Search for CRFs that have discrepancies, need verification, or need approval ■ Search for CRFs by name or by visit In addition, you can combine search criteria to narrow your results. For example, you can search for all CRFs that are for Visit 1 and have a name of VITALS and need to be approved. This chapter includes the following topics: ■ Selecting the Study and Site Context for a Search ■ Using the Search Pane ■ Using Patient Search Criteria ■ Using CRF Status Search Criteria ■ Using CRF Source Search Criteria ■ Using Search Criteria During a Drill-down ■ Clearing Your Search Criteria

Selecting the Study and Site Context for a Search 9-2 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Selecting the Study and Site Context for a Search At the top-right of the Home page and the Casebooks page, RDC Onsite displays the name of the study and site that you are currently using. For example: Once you select a study and site, that context remains valid throughout your RDC Onsite session. RDC Onsite conducts all searches within the selected study and site. The studies and sites available to you depend on the studies you are participating in, your user role, and the privileges assigned to you by the study sponsor. Most users work exclusively on a single site in a study. If that is the case for you, the study and site you work on are your only choices. However, if you work on more than one study or more than one site, always check that you are using the correct study and site before you execute a search. To select a study and a site: 1. Open either the Home page or the Casebooks page. 2. Click the arrow in the Study field and then select a study from the list. RDC Onsite automatically refreshes the list of sites based on the study selected and your assigned privileges. 3. Click the arrow in the Site field and then select a site from the list. RDC Onsite accesses the selected study and site, resets all search criteria to the default values, and then continues as follows: ■ If you are on the Home page, RDC Onsite retrieves all patient data for the site and automatically displays the list of patients. ■ If you are on the Casebooks page, RDC Onsite retrieves no data. You must click Go in the Search pane to retrieve and display data. Using the Search Pane Each page in RDC Onsite provides a search pane that you can use to search for patients, CRFs, and report jobs. Figure 9–1 illustrates the Patient Search pane on the Home page. The Search feature in RDC Onsite helps you locate the information you want from different pages of the application. Every search operation uses the same logic though the criteria may vary, for example, the patient search provides fewer criteria than the CRF search.

Using the Search Pane Using Search 9-3 Figure 9–1 The Patient Search Pane on the Home Page Available Search Criteria Based on Current Page Depending on the page, RDC Onsite varies the search criteria as follows: ■ The Home page, which displays a list of patients, provides only patient search criteria. For example, you can search for patients by number, by assigned casebook, or by discrepancy status. ■ The Casebooks page, the Review CRFs page, the Review Discrepancies page, and the Review Investigator Comments page provide both patient and CRF search criteria. You can retrieve information for a certain set of patients or CRFs, irrespective of whether you review CRFs, discrepancies, or investigator comments. ■ The Reports page limits the search to finding the Patient Data Reports and the Blank Casebook Reports that you generated. You can search by job name and status. Note that when you generate a report, you can specify patient and CRF criteria for the content of the report. For more information, see Chapter 11, "Generating CRF Reports." ■ The Review Special Listings page is a custom page and available only if configured by your sponsor. You can use this page to review special listings, such as adverse events or concomitant medications, for one patient at a time. You can search for the patient by number and select the special listing to view. For more information, see Chapter 6, "Reviewing Special Listings." Search Retrieval and Hidden CRFs Regardless of any other criteria specified: ■ For searches executed from the Casebooks page, the Review CRFs page, the Review Investigator Comments page, or the Review Special Listings page, the search results do not include CRFs that are hidden to the current user. ■ For searches executed from the Review Discrepancies page, the search results do not include discrepancies for CRFs that are hidden to the current user. Toggling the Display of the Search Pane ■ To expand the Search pane, click the + symbol in the title bar. ■ To collapse the Search pane, click the - symbol in the title bar.

Using Patient Search Criteria 9-4 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Tools for Entering Search Criteria ■ To display the list of valid values for a field: – Click the down arrow next to the field or click inside the field. – Click the Magnifying Glass icon, if available, beside a search field. ■ To select a value for a search field: – Click a value in the list. – Press the up and down arrow keys to highlight the value you want, and then press the Enter key. ■ To execute the search after you specify your search criteria, click Go. RDC Onsite displays the data, if any, that matches your search criteria. ■ To reset the search criteria to the default values, click Clear. Using Patient Search Criteria You can locate patients in a particular site and study using a variety of search criteria. Patient criteria lets you search for patients: ■ By number, including searching for one patient, a range of patients, or all patients ■ By the book assigned to the patient ■ By those with and without data entered ■ By the discrepancies entered against the patient ■ By a custom field defined by your sponsor The Home page displays only patient search criteria. The Casebooks page, the Review CRFs page, Review Discrepancies page, and the Review Investigator Comments page displays both patient and CRF search criteria. Searching for Patients by Number Use the Range parameter to search for patients by their unique patient number or ID. To enter a value into the Range field, you can click the Magnifying Glass icon to display the list of valid patient numbers and then select a value from the list. Note that for flexible studies, the list of values displays only those patients who are assigned to a casebook. Alternatively, you can type the exact patient number directly into the field. The Range field does not support any wildcard search characters. Your search options are as follows: ■ To search for one patient, enter a value in only one field. ■ To search for a range of patients in terms of from and to, enter a value in each field. ■ To search for all patients, leave the fields blank.

Using Patient Search Criteria Using Search 9-5 Searching for Patients by Assigned Book Use the Assigned Book parameter to search for patients based on whether they are assigned to a particular casebook. RDC Onsite lists the valid values for the field in the following order: ■ Any (default value) ■ The default book for the current study ■ All other books in the study, listed in alphabetical order The Assigned Book criterion is useful if the study has multiple casebooks and if patients are explicitly assigned to casebooks. On the Home page, view the information in the Casebook column to quickly determine casebook assignments. If all patients are unassigned or assigned to a single book, the Assigned Book parameter may not be useful to you. In a multiple casebooks study, use the Assigned Book parameter to work with patients assigned to a particular casebook. In the course of a multi-protocol study, multiple casebooks can be used either to introduce protocol amendments or to represent different protocols. Searching for Patients by Data Entered Use the Show parameter to search for patients with or without data entered. The Show parameter appears only on the Home page and the Casebooks page. The Review pages automatically show only those patients with data entered. Valid values are: ■ All — Searches for all patients, that is for patients with data entered and for patients without data entered. All is the default value. ■ Patients with data entered — Searches for any patient that has an entered CRF. The search considers a CRF entered even if it is entry started, batch loaded, marked blank, or saved incomplete. In addition, the search includes patients that have deleted CRFs. Selecting this option is useful if you want to review and update data already entered. In addition, selecting this option eliminates the placeholder rows for patient numbers with no data entered. ■ Patients with no data entered — Searches for all the patient numbers available for new data entry. Select this value when initiating data entry for new patients. The Home and Casebooks pages use the grayed-out patient icon with a superimposed question mark (?) to indicate patients with no data entered.

Using Patient Search Criteria 9-6 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide CRF Search Criteria and the Show Search Parameter On the Casebooks page, you can specify CRF search criteria in addition to patient search criteria. When selecting a value for the Show parameter, note that: ■ If you select Patients with no data entered and also specify one or more CRF search criteria, the search ignores all CRF criteria. These values are not relevant in this case. ■ If you select All and also specify one or more CRF search criteria, the CRF search criteria applies only to patients with data entered. Patients without data are not retrieved. Hidden CRFs and the Show Search Parameter ■ If you select Patients with data entered, the search is not restricted to only data that you can see. Therefore, the search may retrieve patients where all patient CRFs and data are hidden from you. ■ The goal of searching for Patients with no data entered is to identify patient numbers that you can use for new data entry. However, the search may return a patient assigned to a casebook that has no CRFs that you can see. In this case, you will not be able to enter data for such a patient. Searching for Patients by the Patient Discrepancy Status Use the Discrepancy Status parameter to retrieve all patients with a specific discrepancy status across all entered CRFs. This Discrepancy Status parameter appears in the patient-level search only on the Home page. In other pages, the Discrepancy Status is a CRF-level search parameter. Valid values are: ■ All — Retrieves all patients regardless of discrepancy status. All is the default value. ■ Active — Retrieves patients with any active discrepancies; does not retrieve patients who have only hidden discrepancies. Active discrepancies are those discrepancies that are assigned to you or your user role for action. ■ Other — Retrieves patients with other discrepancies; does not retrieve patients who have only hidden discrepancies. Other discrepancies are those discrepancies that are assigned to another user role for action. ■ Open (Active & Other) — Retrieves patients with active or other discrepancies; does not retrieve patients who have only hidden discrepancies. ■ Clean (None or Closed) — Retrieves patients with no discrepancies or with closed discrepancies, as well as patients who have only hidden discrepancies. Note: If a patient has discrepancies only in CRFs that you cannot see, the search does not return that patient.

Using CRF Status Search Criteria Using Search 9-7 Searching on the Custom Reference Field Your sponsor can customize the RDC Onsite application to include an additional patient-level search field on the Home page and the Casebooks page. By default, the field name is Reference. However, your sponsor can change the name of the field when setting up RDC Onsite. The custom Reference field: ■ Lets you search for a particular patient or a set of patients based on the contents of the field. ■ Can be up to 25 alphabetic, numeric, and special characters. ■ Supports wildcard searches (%). RDC Onsite displays the patient data associated with the new field as follows: ■ On the Home page, RDC Onsite adds a new column to the Patient List and displays the data defined for the customized Reference field. The column heading uses the same name as the field label. ■ On the Casebooks page, you can position the cursor over the patient icon or the patient number to reveal the data associated with the customized Reference field. ■ On the Review CRFs page, the Review Discrepancies page, and the Review Investigator Comments page, you can position the cursor over the patient number to reveal the data associated with the customized Reference field. Using CRF Status Search Criteria RDC Onsite provides CRF status search criteria on all pages except the Home page. The CRF status criteria let you search for CRFs based on the status of their current entry, discrepancy, approval, or verification. Searching by CRF Entry Status Use the CRF Entry Status parameter to search for CRFs based on the status of the data entered into the CRF. In RDC Onsite, the formal stages of data entry track the progression of a CRF from no data entered to entry completed. Valid values are: ■ All — Retrieves all CRFs regardless of their entry status. All is the default value. ■ Blank — Retrieves all CRFs that have a blank entry status. RDC Onsite assigns this status to a CRF that has been marked as blank. A blank CRF does not contain data. You cannot add data to a CRF while it is marked as blank. ■ Created — Retrieves all CRFs that have a created entry status. RDC Onsite assigns this status to a CRF when all required CRF header data has been entered and saved, and no other data (that is, no response data) has been entered. ■ Entry Started — Retrieves all CRFs that have an entry started status. RDC Onsite assigns this status to a CRF when data entry has been started but is not complete.

Using CRF Status Search Criteria 9-8 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide For CRFs that are assigned this status, some required data fields are complete, while some are not. The CRF has been saved as incomplete. ■ Entry Complete — Retrieves all CRFs that have an entry complete status. RDC Onsite assigns this status to a CRF when all required fields have been entered, including data in the CRF header data and response data to CRF questions. ■ Pass2 Started — Retrieves all CRFs that have a pass2 started status. RDC Onsite assigns this status to a CRF that originated in the Oracle Clinical data entry system. This status indicates that the CRF requires a two-pass data entry and that at least one response has been recorded in the second pass. ■ Pass2 Complete — Retrieves all CRFs that have a pass2 complete status. RDC Onsite assigns this status to a CRF that originated in the Oracle Clinical data entry system. This status indicates that the CRF required a two-pass data entry and that the second pass is complete. ■ Entry or Pass2 Complete — Retrieves all CRFs that have either an entry complete status or a pass2 complete status. ■ Batch Loaded — Retrieves all CRFs that have a batch loaded status. RDC Onsite assigns this status to CRFs with response data that is entered by electronic means, not by users performing manual data entry. Searching by CRF Discrepancy Status Use the CRF Discrepancy Status parameter to retrieve all CRFs with a specific discrepancy status. On the Casebooks page, the Review CRFs page, and the Review Investigator Comments page, the discrepancy status is a CRF-level search parameter. On the Home page, the discrepancy status a patient-level search parameter. For more information, see "Searching for Patients by the Patient Discrepancy Status" on page 9-6. Valid values are: ■ All — Retrieves all CRFs regardless of discrepancy status. All is the default value. ■ Active — Retrieves CRFs with any active discrepancies; does not retrieve CRFs that have only hidden discrepancies. Active discrepancies are those discrepancies that are assigned to you or your user role for action. On the Review Discrepancies page, Active does not retrieve hidden discrepancies. ■ Other — Retrieves CRFs with other discrepancies; does not retrieve CRFs that have only hidden discrepancies. Other discrepancies are those discrepancies that are assigned to another user role for action. On the Review Discrepancies page, Other does not retrieve hidden discrepancies. ■ Open (Active & Other) — Retrieves CRFs with active or other discrepancies; does not retrieve CRFs that have only hidden discrepancies. On the Review Discrepancies page, Open does not retrieve hidden discrepancies. Note: If you select Active, Other, or Open, the search does not retrieve CRFs that have only hidden discrepancies. For example, if a CRF has a hidden manual field discrepancy and an active univariate discrepancy, then the search retrieves the CRF. However, if the CRF has only a hidden manual field discrepancy, then the search does not retrieve the CRF.

Using CRF Status Search Criteria Using Search 9-9 ■ Clean (None or Closed) — Retrieves CRFs with no discrepancies or with closed discrepancies, as well as CRFs that have only hidden discrepancies. On the Review Discrepancies page, Clean is replaced by Closed. If you select Closed, the search does not retrieve hidden closed discrepancies. For example, if the discrepancy is closed and hidden to your user role, the search does not retrieve the CRF. Searching by CRF Approval Status Use the CRF Approval Status parameter to search for CRFs based on their current state of approval. Valid values are: ■ All — Retrieves all CRFs regardless of their approval status. All is the default value. ■ Not Approved — Retrieves only CRFs that have never been approved. ■ Approved — Retrieves all CRFs with an approved status. This status indicates a user with approve privileges certified that the CRF is an accurate representation of the source data. In RDC Onsite, an approval is equivalent to an electronic signature. ■ Awaiting Re-Approval — Retrieves all CRFs with an awaiting re-approval status. This status indicates the CRF was approved, but one or more response values were updated since the approval. For CRFs with this status, users with approve privileges can choose to re-approve the CRF or undo the approval. Changes that cause RDC Onsite to reassign the approval status include: – A response value updated – A discrepancy updated or added – An investigator comment updated or added ■ Approval Undone — Retrieves all CRFs with an approval undone status. This status indicates a user with approve privileges used the Undo Approval option to remove the approved status of a CRF. Searching by CRF Verification Status Use the CRF Verification Status parameter to search for CRFs based on their current state of verification. Valid values are: ■ All — Retrieves all CRFs regardless of their verification status. All is the default value. ■ Not Verified — Retrieves only CRFs that have never been verified. ■ Verified — Retrieves all CRFs with a verified status. This status indicates a user with verify privileges checked the data in the CRF against the source data. ■ Awaiting Re-Verification — Retrieves all CRFs with an awaiting re-verification status. This status indicates the CRF was verified, but one or more response values were updated since the verification. For CRFs with this status, users with verify privileges can choose to re-verify the CRF or undo the verification. Changes that cause RDC Onsite to reassign the verification status include: – A response value updated

Using CRF Source Search Criteria 9-10 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide – A discrepancy updated or added – An investigator comment updated or added ■ Verification Undone — Retrieves all CRFs with a verification undone status. This status indicates the CRF was verified but subsequently the verification was undone. This status is equivalent to the not verified status, with the exception that a verification history exists for a CRF with a verification undone status. Using CRF Source Search Criteria RDC Onsite provides CRF source search criteria on all pages except the Home page. The CRF source criteria let you search for CRFs based on their source casebook, visit, or name. Searching by CRF Source Casebook Use the CRF Source Casebook parameter to search based on the casebook used at the time of initial data entry into the CRF. You can search for all casebooks in the study or for one casebook. The default value is All. When you select a value, RDC Onsite resets both the CRF Source Visit parameter and the CRF Source CRF Name parameter to All, and then refreshes each list with values relevant to the CRF Source Casebook you selected. The CRF Source Casebook parameter is useful if patients whose data was entered using an earlier version of the casebook are reassigned to a new version of the casebook. Searching by CRF Source Visit Use the CRF Source Visit parameter to search for the visit during which the CRF data was collected. Note that: ■ If the CRF Source Casebook parameter is All, RDC Onsite displays all visits defined for the study. ■ If you enter a specific casebook, RDC Onsite lists only the visits defined for the selected casebook. Searching by CRF Source CRF Name Use the CRF Source CRF Name parameter to search for the name of the CRF to review. This parameter is useful in reviewing all CRFs of a certain type, for example, all Adverse Events forms or all Concomitant Medications forms. The list of CRFs that RDC Onsite displays in the CRF Name field depends upon the other source parameters (casebook and visit) that you already selected: ■ If you specify a casebook and select all visits, RDC Onsite displays all CRF names defined for the casebook plus any CRFs that can be added as unplanned pages. ■ If you specify both the casebook and the visit, RDC Onsite only displays the CRFs defined for the visit plus any CRFs that can be added as unplanned pages.

Using Search Criteria During a Drill-down Using Search 9-11 ■ If you select all casebooks and specify a visit, RDC Onsite displays all CRFs defined for the study. Using Search Criteria During a Drill-down When you set search criteria on certain pages in the application, RDC Onsite uses the same criteria as a context for subsequent actions as detailed below: ■ All the Review pages inherit the patient selection from either the Home page or the Casebooks page. ■ The Casebooks page inherits the patient selection from the Home page. ■ The Review Discrepancies, and the Review Investigator Comments pages inherit the CRF selection from the Review CRFs page. About the Effects of an Inherited Patient Selection When a page inherits a patient selection from a parent page: ■ The Search pane displays a selection indicator in the following format: number Patients Selected From page-name Page For example: 14 Patients Selected From Home Page ■ Patient search parameters are not inherited. ■ Patient search parameters appear grayed out and disabled. ■ If the patient selection is inherited from the Casebooks page, RDC Onsite enables CRF search parameters with which you can execute a secondary search against the selected patients. ■ If the Review Discrepancies page inherits a patient selection, all search parameters are enabled. You can then execute a search against the selected patients and those CRFs that fulfill CRF search criteria, if any. About the Effects of an Inherited CRF Selection When a CRF selection is in effect on a page selected subsequently (child page): ■ The Search pane displays a selection indicator in the following format: number CRFs Selected From page-name Page For example: 21 CRFs Selected From Review CRFs Page ■ Patient and CRF search parameters are not inherited. ■ Patient and CRF search parameters appear grayed out and disabled. ■ On the Review Discrepancies page, discrepancy status is inherited and enabled. In subsequent queries, RDC Onsite uses discrepancy status in a sub-query against the set of selected CRFs. Note: In a three-level drill-down, for example, from Home to Review CRFs, to Review Investigator Comments, the lowest level inherits only the CRF selection, and not the Patient selection.

Clearing Your Search Criteria 9-12 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide About the Effects of an Inherited Discrepancy Status Selection The discrepancy status filter is special in two ways: first, its value is inherited by a child page during a drill-down, and second, the discrepancy status appears at patient, CRF, and discrepancy levels, depending upon the page. The discrepancy status you specify on a page can be inherited at a different level, on the page you drill down to. Scenarios of the inheritance of the discrepancy status are described below: ■ If you select patient discrepancy status on the Home page, and drill down to either the Casebooks, or Review CRFs, or Review Investigator Comments pages, CRF discrepancy status inherits the patient discrepancy status. ■ If you select patient discrepancy status on the Home page, and drill down to the Review Discrepancies page, the Discrepancy status search criteria inherits the value specified for the patient discrepancy status. ■ If you select CRF discrepancy status on the Casebooks page, and drill down to the Review CRFs page, the CRF discrepancy status inherits the CRF discrepancy status specified on the Casebooks page, as with other CRF search values. ■ If you select CRF discrepancy status on the Casebooks or Review CRFs pages, and drill down to the Review Discrepancies page, the CRF discrepancy status from the parent page is inherited. ■ If you select CRF discrepancy status on the Casebooks or Review CRFs pages, and drill down to the Review Investigator Comments page, the CRF discrepancy status is not inherited. Instead, the CRF selection stays in effect, and all CRF search criteria are disabled. Clearing Your Search Criteria If you want to specify a new set of search criteria, click the Clear button. When you use the Clear button, RDC Onsite: ■ Resets all enabled search criteria to the default values. ■ Clears the patient selection indicator, if navigation was via drill-down from the Home or Casebooks pages, and enables patient parameters. ■ Clears the CRF selection indicator, if navigation was from the Review CRFs page, and enables both the patient and CRF parameters. When patient or CRF selection indicators are cleared, subsequent searches are executed against all patients or all CRFs, not just the subset previously selected.

11 Generating CRF Reports 11-1 11Generating CRF Reports RDC Onsite lets you generate the following types of custom reports: ■ Patient Data Reports (PDRs) ■ Blank Casebook Reports A Patient Data Report includes all the CRFs and data entered against one patient. Optionally, you can include discrepancy details and audit history, and choose to include only certain CRFs based on report parameters such as visit date, casebook, and CRF status. RDC Onsite generates a separate report for each patient you specify. A Blank Casebook Report lets you create hard copies of all the planned CRFs in the casebook you specify. You can generate a generic blank casebook, which includes no CRF header information and no response data. You can also generate a patient-specific blank casebook, which includes header information specific to the selected patient, but does not include response data. All reports are PDF files. You can use any application that opens PDF files, such as Adobe Reader, to print the report or save a copy of the report to your PC. You can use these reports for electronic submissions and as a printout for off-line discussion and review. In addition, you can use the reports to track your progress during the clinical study. This chapter includes the following topics: ■ Working with the Reports Page ■ Generating a Patient Data Report from the Reports Page ■ Alternate Ways to Generate a Patient Data Report ■ Generating a Blank Casebook Report ■ Searching for Report Jobs ■ Monitoring the Status and Progress of Your Report Jobs ■ Printing a Report

You can generate a Patient Data Report for one or more patients. For each patient that you select, RDC Onsite submits a separate job request and generates a separate report. Optionally, you can include discrepancy details and an audit history in the report. You can also choose to include only certain CRFs in the report based on parameters such as visit date, casebook, and CRF status. You can use Patient Data Reports for electronic submissions and as a printout for off-line discussion and review. To generate a Patient Data Report from the Reports page: 1. Click the Reports tab to open the Reports page. 2. Click New Patient Data Report. 3. Select the report parameters that RDC Onsite uses to generate the Patient Data Report. You must select a Study Site, which is a required parameter. The other report parameters are optional. You can use the other parameters to include or exclude information in the Patient Data Report. See Table 11–1 for a description of each report parameter. 4. Select the job parameters for the report. a. Select the name of the Report Server. b. Enter up to 8 characters for the Job Name Prefix. RDC Onsite automatically uses a unique number as the name of a report job, and then adds your specified prefix to the beginning of the job name. You can use the prefix value to easily search for your reports in the list on the Reports page. RDC Onsite displays the Job Id, Job Name, and the Output File Name for your reference. Note: CRFs are included in the Patient Data Report that satisfy the criteria you specify in the Report Parameters. Any CRFs that are hidden based on your user role are excluded.

Table 11–1 Report Parameters Report Parameter Description Study Site Lists all the sites for the current study to which you have privileges. The current study is as specified on the Home page or the Casebooks page. The Study Site is the only report parameter required. The default value is the first site listed in the study. Patient Specifies the patients for which you want to generate a Patient Data Report. RDC Onsite submits a separate job and generates a separate report for each patient you specify. You can select all patients, a range of patients, or a single patient. The default value is All. CRF Date Range Specifies whether to limit the CRFs included in the report. You can select to include only those CRFs in a certain date range. In addition, you select whether to define the range by CRF visit date or creation date. The default value is No Limit. Casebook Lists all the casebooks for the current study. RDC Onsite uses the selected casebook for CRFs not entered against a particular casebook. The following conditions apply: ■ If not otherwise specified, RDC Onsite uses the patient's casebook. ■ If a patient is not assigned to a casebook, RDC Onsite uses the study's default casebook. ■ If the study has no default casebook, RDC Onsite uses the first active casebook in alphabetical order. Mark Values Defines whether to mark values that changed since approval, since verification, or since a specific date. ■ If you select Mark Values along with the Include Audit History option, RDC Onsite uses the marked values as the basis of the audit history. ■ If you do not select Mark Values, and only select the Include Audit History option, RDC Onsite creates a complete audit history for the report. Include Audit History Defines whether to include the audit history for each CRF in the report. When selected, the audit history is included in the Ancillary Data pages for each CRF. The report includes an audit history for all fields, even for those fields (responses) that have never been updated. Deleted CRFs, if any, are included in an appendix. Include Discrepancy Details Defines whether to include the discrepancy details for each CRF in the report. When selected, the discrepancy details are included in the Ancillary Data pages for each CRF. The report does not include the details for hidden discrepancies (that is, for discrepancies that are hidden from the user submitting the report). Include CRFs entered in classic data entry Defines whether to include the CRFs that were entered using RDC Classic or Oracle Clinical. The CRFs are included only if the DCI Form is available. Date Format Specifies the format to use for the report dates. You can select US, Standard, European, Swedish, and Dynamic.

Alternate Ways to Generate a Patient Data Report Generating CRF Reports 11-5 Alternate Ways to Generate a Patient Data Report In addition to the Reports page, you can generate a Patient Data Report from the Home page, the Casebooks page, and the Review CRFs page. When you generate reports from these other pages, you cannot customize the content of the report because you cannot specify any of the report parameters. (See Table 11–1 for a description of the report parameters.) When you generate a Patient Data Report from the Home, Casebooks, or Review CRFs pages, the report: ■ Does not include discrepancy details and audit history. ■ Uses a default job name prefix. You cannot override this value. ■ Includes CRFs entered using Oracle Clinical or RDC Classic if the DCI Form is available. (The report includes these CRFs even if the CRFs have not been migrated.) If you generate a Patient Data Report from the Reports tab, you choose whether the report includes or excludes all the items listed above. Generating a Patient Data Report from the Home or Casebooks Page When you generate a Patient Data Report from the Home page or the Casebooks page, RDC Onsite: ■ Submits a separate report job and generates a separate report for each patient that you select ■ Orders the report by casebook visit ■ Uses the following format to add a prefix to the report job name: PT_patient_ Note that if you specify CRF search criteria on the Casebooks page, the report includes only the CRFs that satisfy the search criteria. Orientation Defines how RDC Onsite orients pages for printing. You can select Portrait or Landscape. The default value is Portrait. This value affects only the cover page, the ancillary data pages, and the appendix pages of the report. The orientation of a CRF is always defined by its layout regardless of your selection. CRF Status: Discrepancy Defines whether to include only CRFs with a particular discrepancy status. You can select All, Active, Other, Open (Active & Other), or Clean (None or Closed). The default value is All. ■ If you select Clean, the report includes CRFs with no discrepancies or with closed discrepancies, as well as CRFs that have only hidden discrepancies. ■ If you select Active, Other, or Open, the report does not include CRFs that have only hidden discrepancies. CRF Status: Approval Defines whether to include only CRFs with a particular approval status. You can select All, Not Approved, Approved, Awaiting Re-Approval, and Approval Undone. The default value is All. CRF Status: Verification Defines whether to include only CRFs with a particular verification status. You can select All, Not Verified, Verified, Awaiting Re-Verification, and Verification Undone. The default value is All. Table 11–1 (Cont.) Report Parameters Report Parameter Description

A Description of the CRF Icons A-1 A Description of the CRF Icons This appendix describes the CRF icons that appear on the Casebooks page and the Review pages in Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite (RDC Onsite). This appendix includes the following topics: ■ Data Entry Status Icons ■ Discrepancy Status Icons ■ Verification Status Icons ■ Approval Status Icons ■ Multiple-Status Icons ■ Summary of Colors and Symbols Added to CRF Icons

Data Entry Status Icons A-2 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Data Entry Status Icons RDC Onsite uses a series of icons to indicate the formal stages of data entry and to track the progression of a CRF from no data entered to entry complete. Table A–1 describes the icons that RDC Onsite uses to indicate the various stages of data entry in a CRF. Table A–1 Data Entry Status Icons Icon Label Description Placeholder No information has been entered into the CRF. Created All required header information has been entered and saved for the CRF. However, no response data has been entered yet. Blank A user has intentionally marked the CRF as blank. A blank CRF contains no data. You cannot enter data into a CRF while it is marked as blank. Entry Completed All required fields have been entered, including CRF header fields and responses to all data points. All required CRF header and section information is complete and at least one question area response field is completed. In addition, a CRF with this icon has no discrepancies, is not yet verified, and is not yet approved. RDC Onsite adds color and symbols to the Entry Complete icon to indicate discrepancy, verification, and approval status. Pass 2 Started The second pass of data entry has started. This record originates from an Oracle Clinical operation, but your sponsor might create an activity that displays records with this status. Pass 2 Completed The second pass of data entry is completed. This record originates from an Oracle Clinical operation, but your sponsor might create an activity that displays records with this status. Batch Loaded The data for the CRF was loaded during an automatic batch operation configured by your sponsor. The response values were entered into a CRF by electronic means, as opposed to manually entered by a user performing data entry.

Discrepancy Status Icons Description of the CRF Icons A-3 Discrepancy Status Icons A discrepancy is any data that falls outside of an expected range of values or is otherwise flagged during the edit check process as an error. Table A–2 shows the discrepancy status icons. The discrepancy status icons indicate whether you (or a member of your user group) or another group needs to correct some of the information in a CRF. To indicate the status of discrepancies in a CRF, RDC Onsite adds the following color to the Entry Completed icon: ■ Red to indicate active discrepancies. ■ Yellow to indicates other discrepancies. If a CRF contains both active discrepancies and other discrepancies, the icon remains red until you address all active discrepancies in the CRF. At that point, if one or more discrepancies with a status of other are still open, the icon changes from red to yellow. If a CRF has no discrepancies or if all discrepancies are closed, the icon is white. Table A–2 Discrepancy Status Icons Icon Label Description Entry Completed (and no open discrepancies) There are no open discrepancies (active or other) associated with the CRF. There may, however, be closed discrepancies associated with the CRF. Note that this icon is the Entry Completed icon. RDC Onsite adds color to the Entry Completed icon to indicate the status of discrepancies. Active Discrepancies The red color added to the Entry Completed icon indicates that the CRF has one or more active discrepancies that must be addressed by you or by a member of your user group. Other Discrepancies The yellow color added to the Entry Completed icon indicates that the CRF has one or more other discrepancies that must be addressed by a user in a role other than yours.

Verification Status Icons A-4 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Verification Status Icons As shown in Table A–3, RDC Onsite adds symbols to the Entry Completed icon to indicate the verification status of a CRF. Approval Status Icons As shown in Table A–4, RDC Onsite adds signatures and symbols to the Entry Completed icon to indicate the approval status of a CRF. Table A–3 Verification Status Icons Icon Label Description Entry Completed (but not yet verified) The CRF has not been verified. Note that this icon is the Entry Completed icon. RDC Onsite adds symbols to the Entry Completed icon to indicate the verification status. Verified The check mark added to the Entry Completed icon indicates that the CRF has been verified (that is, checked). Awaiting Re-Verification Note that RDC Onsite adds a red arrow next to the check mark to indicate that the verification process must be repeated. The CRF is awaiting re-verification. At least one data point in the verified CRF has been modified since verification. The CRF must be verified again. Table A–4 Approval Status Icons Icon Label Description Entry Completed (but not yet approved) The CRF has not been approved. Note that this icon is the Entry Completed icon. RDC Onsite adds symbols to the Entry Completed icon to indicate the approval status. Approved The signature added to the Entry Completed icon indicates that the CRF has been approved. Awaiting Re-Approval The CRF is awaiting re-approval. At least one data point in the approved CRF has been modified since approval. The CRF must be approved again. Note that RDC Onsite adds a red arrow next to the signature to indicate that the approval process must be repeated.

Multiple-Status Icons Description of the CRF Icons A-5 Multiple-Status Icons RDC Onsite adds color and graphics to the Entry Completed icon, the Pass 2 Completed icon, and the Batch Loaded icon to further indicate the status of a CRF. Some CRFs can have more than one status. Table A–5 provides a few examples of CRF icons that have a combination of statuses. Table A–5 Multiple-Status Icons Icon Description Indicates the CRF: ■ Has been batch loaded (disk) ■ Has been approved (signature) ■ Is awaiting re-verification (red arrow next to check mark) ■ Is locked (padlock) This is a sponsor operation, but might reflect in an activity that shows records with this status.

A Patient Data Report has certain standard components, and some components specific to certain types of reports, or to certain conditions, such as long data values being present. In addition to the cover page, a Patient Data Report can include the following sections: ■ A CRF data section ■ Ancillary Data pages if the CRF has any response overflow, audit, discrepancy, or investigator comment information ■ A Deleted CRFs section ■ An Appendix listing CRFs not included in the report Cover Page in a Patient Data Report Every Patient Data Report has a cover page that lists the following basic information: ■ Title — The title of the report. The title uses the following format: CRF Report for Study study-name. ■ Report generated by — The full name of the user who initiated the report. ■ On — The date and time the report was generated. ■ Report Parameters — A list of the selected parameters for the report, including: – The patient ID for which the report was run. – The search criteria in effect on the Home or Casebooks page when the report was run. ■ Legends — An explanation of the time stamps and the superscripts shown in the report. Figure B–1 shows a sample cover page for a Patient Data Report.

Content of a Patient Data Report Report Contents B-3 Figure B–1 Sample Cover Page CRF Superscripts in a Patient Data Report The CRFs in a Patient Data Report may include one or more fields marked with a superscript number. Superscript numbers are assigned sequentially in a CRF, based on the order of the fields. The superscript indicates that the field is associated with one of the following conditions: ■ Overflow — The entered text is too large for the field. ■ Investigator Comment — The field has an investigator's comment associated with the response. ■ Discrepancies — The field is associated with one or more discrepancies. A section discrepancy is associated with the first field in the section. ■ Audit History — The field has undergone modification since originally entered. If a superscript is on the CRF, an Ancillary Data page follows immediately after the last page of the CRF. Ancillary Data Pages in a Patient Data Report An Ancillary Data page lists each superscript number found in a CRF and outputs any additional information belonging to the corresponding field. The additional information may include any overflow text, investigator comments, discrepancy details, and audit history associated with the field. Figure B–2 shows a sample Ancillary Data page.

Content of a Patient Data Report B-4 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide CRF Created Information The Ancillary Data page includes the user name (ID) of the individual who created the CRF, and the date and time the CRF was created. For example: Created by: RK MARE on: 07-01-2009 07:29:53 Note that the creation date and time marks when the CRF was first saved, regardless of whether it was saved as complete or incomplete. Approval Information If configured to show Approval information, the Ancillary Data page also includes the name of the individual who approved the CRF, and the date and time the CRF was approved. For example: Approved by: JOHN SMITH on: 08-21-2009 11:15:22 Figure B–2 Sample Ancillary Data Page in a Patient Data Report

Content of a Patient Data Report Report Contents B-5 Including Audit History and Discrepancy Details A Patient Data Report automatically includes any overflow text and investigator comments associated with a field. The report includes discrepancy and audit information only if you: ■ Select the Include Discrepancy Details and the Include Audit History check boxes on the Reports page. ■ Generate the report from the Reports page. Audit History Includes All Fields Even if Never Updated If you specify to include an audit history, the Patient Data Report includes an audit history for all fields, even for those fields (responses) that have never been updated. The Ancillary Data page includes the user name (ID) of the individual who created the CRF, and the date and time the CRF was created. Note that the creation date and time marks when the CRF was first saved, regardless of whether it was saved as complete or incomplete. When combined with the field-level audit history, the report provides a complete history for each field with the following exceptions: ■ For responses initially saved as null while the CRF is in status Pass1 Started (or Entry Started), the time at which a response for the field changed from null to not null is not available. Once the CRF is saved complete, the field-level audit history includes an entry for the change from null to not null. ■ If optional CRF header fields (like Comment) are not entered during the initial data entry, the time at which a response for the field changes from null to not null is not available. ■ If a CRF is marked blank with the initial save, and responses are subsequently entered, the time at which you entered a response after you cleared the Is Blank check box is not available. However, the history for the Is Blank check box itself indicates the time at which you cleared the check box. You can assume that you entered at least one response, if not all responses, at that time. Furthermore, if you save the CRF as complete at this time, the Patient Data Report includes subsequent changes of other fields from null to not null values as part of the audit histories for those fields. Inserted and Deleted Rows Inserted and deleted rows do not have superscripts shown in the CRF but appear on the Ancillary Data page as audit history.

Content of a Patient Data Report B-6 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide Bookmarks in a Patient Data Report Every Patient Data Report includes a table of contents with bookmarks to the various topics and pages in the report. See Figure B–3. You can click the bookmarks to access pages in the report. The report also includes two sets of bookmarks: ■ The first set is organized by Visit and within the visit, the Data Domain. ■ The second set is organized by Data Domain and within a Data Domain, by Visit. For example, if an Adverse Events CRF is entered for Visit 1 and Visit 2, the report has two AE pages in the report. A bookmark would exist under Visit 1, AE as well as under AE, Visit 1. You can click either of the bookmarks to open the first AE page entered for Visit 1. You can navigate to the cover page of the report by clicking on the By Visit bookmark or the By Domain bookmark. Figure B–3 Bookmarks for Reviewing the Patient Data Report

Content of a Patient Data Report Report Contents B-7 Appendices in a Patient Data Report The Patient Data Report may include the following appendices: ■ A listing of all deleted CRFs, if an audit history is included in the report. ■ A listing of all CRFs not included for the particular Patient Data Report. A CRF is not included if a layout does not exist for it. Page Numbering in a Patient Data Report RDC Onsite numbers CRFs according to visits. Within a visit, RDC Onsite numbers the CRFs according to their assigned casebook. If you add an unplanned page in the casebook, RDC Onsite assigns it the page number of the last expected CRF for the particular visit, appended with U, as well as a unique number for the unplanned page for that visit. For example, if Visit 2 includes pages 3 through 10, the second unplanned CRF entered for Visit 2 receives the number 10.U.2. Extended Text Fields in Patient Data Reports In a Patient Data Report, extended text fields output as follows: ■ On the CRF page, each extended text field displays the ATTACHMENT prefix and the truncated response text. ■ The extended text field does not use a superscript in the CRF to indicate an overflow of text. Instead, the ATTACHMENT prefix indicates that the field is an extended text field. ■ For each extended text field in the CRF that has data, the Patient Data Report includes a separate Extended Text Ancillary Data page that displays the full content of the field. The Extended Text Ancillary Data page: ■ Contains one extended text field per page. If a CRF has more than one extended text field, then each field has a separate Extended Text Ancillary Data page. ■ Labels the page with the name of the CRF and the name of the extended text field. ■ Includes page numbers in the upper-right corner. Optionally, the Patient Data Report can include the audit history for an extended text field. ■ To include the audit history, select the Include Audit History parameter when you generate the Patient Data Report. If you specify to include an audit history, the Patient Data Report includes an audit history for all fields. ■ The superscript indicates that an audit history is associated with the field. ■ The audit history prints on the Ancillary Data pages along with the audit history for standard fields. In this section, the audit history for an extended text field includes only the ATTACHMENT prefix and the truncated response text. Note: Data from an extended text field does not display in the Overflow section of the primary Ancillary Data pages.

Content of a Blank Casebook Report B-8 Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture Onsite User's Guide In addition, the Ancillary Data pages include a new section in which the audit history for an extended text field shows the complete extended text from one update to the next update. ■ To avoid duplicating large amounts of text, the audit history does not include the Changed To field. If there is one audit history entry, the Changed To value prints in the current extended text. If there are multiple audit history entries, the Changed To value is in the previous entry. Content of a Blank Casebook Report The Blank Casebook Report consists of a blank copy of all the planned CRFs in the casebook. Generating and printing a blank casebook is useful for sites still doing paper data entry. Cover Page in a Blank Casebook Report Each generated Blank Casebook Report has a cover page that lists the following basic information about the report: ■ Title — The title of the report. The title uses the following format: CRF Report for Study study-name. ■ Casebook — The name of the casebook designated for the report. ■ Report generated by — The full name of the user who initiated the report. ■ On — The date and time the report was generated. ■ Legends — An explanation of the time stamps and the superscripts shown in the report. If you specified a patient number when you generated the report, the cover page also includes the patient number (ID) for which the report was run. CRF Data Section in a Blank Casebook Report Most fields in the Blank Casebook Report are empty so you can hand write patient responses into the blank form. However, RDC Onsite automatically fills in the following fields when generating the report: ■ Study Name ■ Visit Name ■ Visit Number ■ CRF Name ■ Short Name In addition, RDC Onsite displays the Patient ID, Site ID, and Investigator ID on the Blank Casebook Report. Note: When you generate a Blank Casebook Report for a flexible study, the report may be quite large because it includes all CRFS defined in the casebook even though for a given patient not all CRFs and visits will be expected.

Content of a Blank Casebook Report Report Contents B-9 Page Numbering in a Blank Casebook Report The Blank Casebook Report retains the defined order of the planned CRFs in a selected casebook, along with their defined page numbers. About the List of Unprinted DCIs Some DCIs do not get printed because their layout is not specified. The Blank Casebook Report lists these unprinted DCIs.
