Understand subject rescreening

In some cases, your study's protocol may call for allowing subjects to be rescreened. For example, a subject may not have met study protocol requirements at the time of their initial screening, but may meet the requirements at a later time.

Be aware that the Rescreen option does not appear in the Manage drop-down for the following scenarios:
  • Rescreening is not allowed, according to the study settings.
  • The subject has reached the maximum number of rescreen attempts. Also configured on the study setting.
  • A rescreening visit has not been created for the study yet.
  • The subject is either successfully screened, randomized, or enrolled, or the subject has been withdrawn from the study.
  • The screen fail or rescreening visit is started, or any data has been entered for either of them. The Rescreen option does not appear unless this data is cleared. Or, there is no Screen Fail visit present and the study's settings are set to lock all screening/rescreening data for the previous visit.

    Tip:

    If all data is cleared for the screen fail event, if additional rescreen attempts remain, the Rescreen option becomes available again in the Manage drop-down.

    You are also able to undo manual screen failures or update data that generated an auto-screen fail, as long as you have not moved on to another rescreen visit.

Note:

A Screen Fail or Rescreen visit is hidden in the UI if the subject is successfully screened.
