What are Clintrial subsets?
In the Clintrial application, subsets provide a way to group similar items together in a page section. A subset page section can occur multiple times on a study page in a Type 0, Type 2, or Type 4 panel, with each different value of a subset key item representing distinct rows (subsets) of data. Each occurrence of a subset page section constitutes a separate observation.
You might want to set up data mappings for a subset if both of the following are true:
- Your InForm study collects identical data items on multiple forms (for example, lab test results for different body systems).
- You want to store the data in a single panel in the Clintrial application.
For example, in the Medika-Clinical sample study in the Clintrial application, the LABLNG page template has subset page sections for blood chemistry (LABCHEM), hematology (LABHEM), and urinalysis (LABURN). Each of these sections is made up of the same panel items, including the subset key item TEST_TYPE. The value of TEST_TYPE distinguishes the type of lab test represented by each subset of lab data.
