Investigator Comments

The Investigator may write an explanatory comment next to the actual question response. Use [Investigator Comment] to enter these comments and associate them with the CRF.

To enter Investigator comments:

  1. Position the cursor in the field for which you want to add the comment.
  2. Select the [Investigator Comment] function.

    The Investigator Comment window appears.

  3. Enter the Investigator's comment, exactly as it appears on the CRF.
  4. Select Save to save the new comment and return to the original Data Entry window, or Cancel to discard the comment.

The Investigator comment is saved as part of the response, not in the discrepancy database.

A value with an Investigator comment displays in green, and an Investigator comment lamp (<Inv.>) displays in the Data Entry window title. If there is also a univariate discrepancy or operator comment for the field, the response value displays in red to indicate multiple comments or discrepancies, and the appropriate lamps are displayed in the window title.
