Alternate forms and navigation modes
Alternate forms are used to collect additional data on a patient after the visit in which such data would usually be recorded. For example, if a sponsor decides to collect additional family history data after a patient has completed the intake visit, he would use an alternate form.
To collect this additional data, a trial can include an alternate version of a form. The alternate version of the form appears in the visit where the data would have been collected originally. If a patient has started the original version of the form, both the original and the alternate form appear. You enter the new data on the alternate version of the form. In a trial that includes alternate forms, some Case Books can include alternate forms that have not been activated.
When you use the form navigation mode in a trial that includes alternate forms, the Patient drop-down list displays patient names in either of the following ways:
- Show navigation details—The list displays all patients. If you select a patient for whom an alternate form has not been activated, a message displays stating that the form does not exist.
- Hide navigation details—The list displays only those patients with activated alternate forms. Patients with unactivated alternate forms do not appear in the list.
Click the toggle navigation details icon to select the navigation method. For more information, see Patient navigation icons.
