Complete a lab form

You collect a subject's lab test results using lab forms. To collect lab test results you need to select the appropriate lab and have it associated with the form.

Note:

We recommend that you do not pre-fill information in forms. Instead, start data entry for a form when a visit occurs. If you start a visit for a subject and then your site starts using a new study version, the started visit is unchanged for the subject, even if the new study version has changes to the visit.
  1. On the Home page, determine where to work. For more information, see Access study modes and pages.
  2. Along the top, make sure Subjects is selected.
  3. Filter your view based on several criteria. For more information, see Filter subjects in a study.
  4. Locate a subject on subjects list, and click the visit in the Next Visits column.
  5. Navigate to the lab form that you want to complete.
  6. If included, answer the introductory questions displayed before the lab form.
  7. If displayed, click the Select Lab drop-down and do one of the following:
    • If your site is already associated with a lab, select an existing lab from the Select Lab drop-down.
    • If there are no labs created in your study or the lab you must select isn't on the list, click Go to Sites & Labs to create labs and define their lab normals.

      Note:

      You must be assigned the following permissions to create a lab and define lab normals: Add and Update Lab Normal Ranges and Create and Add Labs to a Site.
  8. On the Result column, enter the lab result for each test.
    If you want to edit a value, click the number hyperlink.
  9. To add a new instance of the lab form (including its introductory questions), click Add next to the form's title.

    Note:

    For each new lab form instance that you add, you must answer the Sample Collection Date and Fasting questions, as well as select the appropriate lab from the Select Lab drop-down.
  10. To add a new row in the table (located in the second section of the lab form), to the left of the table, click +.
  11. Click Save.
