Checking Frozen Status

Before allowing any CRF to be logged in or any data to be entered or updated, Oracle Clinical checks the status of the study, Investigator, and patient, ensuring that all levels of data are unfrozen. If any levels of data are frozen, Oracle Clinical displays an error message and does not continue processing the update.

You can see whether data has been frozen in different locations in Oracle Clinical, depending on the frozen unit, or level:

• To see if a study is frozen, from the Conduct menu, select Security, then select Clinical Study States, and look at the Frozen? flag for the study.
• To see if a study site is frozen, from the Design menu, select Investigators and Sites, then select Study Sites, and look at the Frzn flag for the study site.
• To see if a patient is frozen, from the Design menu, select Patient Positions, then select Patients, and look at the Frozen? flag for the patient.
