Six tabs are available in the center of the screen. Four of them are related to the CRFs status while the last two are dedicated to the unresolved queries of the patient and the patient trail.
Blank forms
This tab contains 2 subsections (requested forms and other forms). If a form has not been sent in due time, it will be requested in the section 'requested forms'. Form code, name and reason for request will be displayed. The form can be created by clicking on 'create'. Once the form has been created, the request will disappear from the list. If a requested form cannot be completed, click on 'not applicable', enter the reason and click on 'Save'. The request will disappear.
All forms remaining available for completion are displayed in the "other forms" section. In the 'Instructions' it is reported when the form has to be completed.
The number next to 'Blank' (in the tab) corresponds to the number of requested forms.
Incomplete forms
When created, a new form has an 'incomplete' status. A form can be saved as 'incomplete' at any time.
Complete forms
Once all required data on a form has been reported, the form should be saved as 'complete'. 'Complete' forms must be sent to the EORTC database by users that have the right to sign forms. You can edit 'complete' forms as long as they are not yet sent.
Sent forms
Once a form is approved and sent, it is made visible to the EORTC Data Manager. The form arrives with an on-hold status in the EORTC database. Forms that have been sent can no longer be edited; however it is possible to Create an electronic Data Correction.
In the sent tab also the sent paper forms are shown (e.g. Quality of Life forms). The forms that are entered and sent through VISTA RDC (
) have a different logo than the paper forms (
).
