Browse and Update Patient Data

If a discrepancy has been triggered by incorrect response data entered into Oracle Clinical, and if you have the necessary privileges, you can resolve the discrepancy by correcting the response data. During the next Batch Validation, Oracle Clinical changes the system status of the discrepancy to Obsolete and the Review status to Closed and removes the discrepancy from its DCF (if it was included in a DCF).

To correct the response for a univariate discrepancy, choose Update Patient Data from the Special menu in the Maintain Discrepancy Database window. To correct the response(s) for a multivariate discrepancy, click the More button and then choose Update Patient Data from the Special menu.

In both cases, the Data Entry window opens in Update mode at the same record. Enter the correct data. When you tab out of the field you edited, an Audit pop-up box appears and you must enter the type of correction you have just made, and then a comment. To exit the window, from the Action menu, select Exit. Then update the Review Status, Resolution, and Comment fields in the Maintain Discrepancy Database window, according to your company's standard operating procedures.

If your organization maintains scanned CRF images, you can display them by clicking the Get Image button in the Maintain Discrepancy Database window (or from Data Entry). You can make an immediate comparison of the original CRF and the data entered into Oracle Clinical.

Note:

If you click the question mark (?) Help icon from this window, you get information on the Question and question group associated with the response.
