CRAs (clinical research associates) typically carry out the following types of visits to a site:
Site evaluation. A site visit to evaluate a site's qualification for a study
Site initiation. A site visit to initiate a site
Site monitoring. A site visit to monitor study progress and to monitor and retrieve CRFs (case report forms)
Site close-out. A site visit to close out or terminate a site at the conclusion of a study
Unscheduled. (Optional) An unexpected site visit that a CRA can carry out
CRAs create these visits for each site for which they are responsible. When a CRA creates a site visit, it appears in the CRA's calendar, the site investigator's calendar, and the study manager's calendar. Consequently, the study manager can keep track of all site visits for all CRAs. The calendar entry is a useful reminder for investigators of scheduled site visits.
You create site visits using the Protocol Site List view of the Site Management screen. From this view, CRAs can view all their site visits and all follow-up activities that arise from the visits. You can also view all site visits and follow-up activities associated with these visits. Study managers can also filter site visits to see the visits that are assigned to their teams, and view follow-up activities to assess the most pressing issues.
This task is a step in "Process of Managing Sites and Contacts for Clinical Trials".
To create a site visit
Navigate to the Site Management screen, then the Protocol Site List view.
In the Protocol Site list, drill down on the site number field for the site with which you want to create a visit.
