If I decrease my SV Target Rate, how does InForm choose which subjects to remove from the SV Pool?
InForm ranks the subjects by the current number of forms that are source verified, and removes subjects with the fewest source verified forms first. Those subjects return to the SV Eligible Pool. This ensures that the least amount of additional source verification work is required when the target rate is reduced.
For example:
If subject 01-004 has one form source verified, subject 01-007 has two forms source verified, and subject 01-012 has three forms source verified:
- The process returns 01-004 to the SV Eligible Pool if the rate reduction called for removing a single subject.
- If the rate reduction called for removal of two subjects from the Auto-select Pool, then subjects 01-004 and 01-007 would be returned.
- This occurs so that reduction of the Auto-select Pool maintains a preference for retaining subjects with the highest number of SV Complete forms for the study. This ensures that the least amount of additional source verification work is required when the target rate is reduced.
