Using CRF Source Search Criteria

RDC Onsite provides CRF source search criteria on all pages except the Home page. The CRF source criteria let you search for CRFs based on their source casebook, visit, or name.

Searching by CRF Source Casebook

Use the CRF Source Casebook parameter to search based on the casebook used at the time of initial data entry into the CRF. You can search for all casebooks in the study or for one casebook. The default value is All.

When you select a value, RDC Onsite resets both the CRF Source Visit parameter and the CRF Source CRF Name parameter to All, and then refreshes each list with values relevant to the CRF Source Casebook you selected.

The CRF Source Casebook parameter is useful if patients whose data was entered using an earlier version of the casebook are reassigned to a new version of the casebook.

Searching by CRF Source Visit

Use the CRF Source Visit parameter to search for the visit during which the CRF data was collected. Note that:

  • If the CRF Source Casebook parameter is All, RDC Onsite displays all visits defined for the study.
  • If you enter a specific casebook, RDC Onsite lists only the visits defined for the selected casebook.

Searching by CRF Source CRF Name

Use the CRF Source CRF Name parameter to search for the name of the CRF to review.

This parameter is useful in reviewing all CRFs of a certain type, for example, all Adverse Events forms or all Concomitant Medications forms.

The list of CRFs that RDC Onsite displays in the CRF Name field depends upon the other source parameters (casebook and visit) that you already selected:

  • If you specify a casebook and select all visits, RDC Onsite displays all CRF names defined for the casebook plus any CRFs that can be added as unplanned pages.
  • If you specify both the casebook and the visit, RDC Onsite only displays the CRFs defined for the visit plus any CRFs that can be added as unplanned pages.
  • If you select all casebooks and specify a visit, RDC Onsite displays all CRFs defined for the study.
