EventsAEN/AN/A1STUDYIDStudy IdentifierA unique identifier for a study.What is the study identifier?[Protocol/Study]CharHRN/ASTUDYIDMaps directly to the tabulation variable listed in the Tabulation Target column.N/AN/AAlthough this field is not typically captured on a CRF, it should be displayed clearly on the CRF and/or the EDC system. This field can be included into the database or populated during tabulation dataset creation.1
EventsAEN/AN/A2SITEIDStudy Site IdentifierA unique identifier for a site within a study.What is the site identifier?Site (Identifier)CharHRN/ADM.SITEIDMaps directly to the tabulation variable listed in the Tabulation Target column.N/AN/APaper: This is typically pre-printed in the header of each CRF page for single-site studies. For studies with multiple sites, this field may be left blank so that the number can be recorded by the site, or it may be pre-printed for the CRFs that are shipped to each site. \n EDC: This should be pre-populated.2
EventsAEN/AN/A3SUBJIDSubject Identifier for the StudyA unique subject identifier within a site and a study.What [is/was] the (study) [subject/participant] identifier?[Subject/Participant] (Identifier)CharHRRecord the identifier for the subject.DM.SUBJIDMaps directly to the tabulation variable listed in the Tabulation Target column.N/AN/APaper: This is typically recorded in the header of each CRF page. EDC: The subject identifiers may be system generated. This collection variable is typically collected for all domains. However, this collection variable is populated only in the tabulation DM dataset.3
EventsAEN/AN/A4AEYNAny Adverse ExperienceAn indication of whether any AEs were experienced during the study.Were any adverse events experienced?Any Adverse ExperiencesCharOIndicate if the subject had any adverse experiences. If Yes, include the appropriate details where indicated on the CRF.N/ADoes not map to an tabulation variable.(NY)N/AThe intent/purpose of collecting this field is to help with data cleaning and monitoring. It provides verification that all other fields on the CRF were deliberately left blank.4

This would most commonly be either a heading or a pre-printed category value on the CRF, and not a question to which the site would provide an answer. If a question is asked, the response would typically be an applicant-defined codelist. If the form is laid out as a grid, then words such as "Category" can be included as the column heading.5
EventsAEN/AN/A6AESCATSubcategory for Adverse ExperienceA sub-division of the AECAT values based on user-defined characteristics.What is the subcategory of the adverse experience?[Adverse Experience Subcategory]; NULLCharORecord the adverse experience subcategory, if not pre-printed on the CRF.AESCATMaps directly to the tabulation variable listed in the Tabulation Target column.N/AN/AApplicant-defined controlled terminology. This would most commonly be pre-printed on the CRF or screen and pre-populated in the data management system. This is not typically a question to which the site would provide an answer. AESCAT can only be used if there is an AECAT and it must be a subcategorization of AECAT.6
EventsAEN/AN/A7AESPIDAE Applicant-Defined IdentifierA applicant-defined identifier. This is typically used for pre-printed or auto-generated numbers on the CRF, or any other type of identifier that does not already have a defined identifier field.[Applicant-defined question][Applicant defined]CharOIf collected on the CRF, applicant may insert instructions to ensure each record has a unique identifier.AESPIDMaps directly to the tabulation variable listed in the Tabulation Target column. May be used to create RELREC to link this record with a record in another domain.N/AN/ABecause SPID is an applicant-defined identifier, conformance to Question Text or Item Prompt is not applicable. Typically used as an identifier in a data query to communicate clearly to the site the specific record in question or to reconcile concomitant medications, procedures and/or medical history records with AEs. If CMAENO or PRAENO is used, this is the identifier to which CMAENO or PRAENO refers. May be used to record pre-printed number (e.g., line number, record number) on the CRF. This field may be populated by the applicant's data collection system.7
EventsAEN/AN/A8AETERMReported Term for the Adverse ExperienceThe reported or pre-specified name of the adverse experience.What is the adverse experience term?Adverse ExperienceCharHRRecord only 1 diagnosis, sign, or symptom per line (e.g., nausea and vomiting should not be recorded in the same entry, but as 2 separate entries).

Because the tabaulation AE domain is intended to hold only adverse experiences that actually happen, all values collected in AEOCCUR for pre-specified AEs should be represented in a Findings About Adverse Experiences data set (FAAE) where FAORRES=the value of AEOCCUR where FATESTCD="OCCUR". In addition, where AEOCCUR="Y", there should be a corresponding record in the AE domain.(NY)N/AThe collection variable AEOCCUR is used to indicate the occurrence of pre-specified adverse experiences (e.g., "Did the subject have high blood pressure?"). AEOCCUR should not be used for spontaneously reported adverse experiences. The site should be able to indicate that the response was not asked or answered.9

May be used to populate a value into a tabulation relative timing variable such as AEENRF or AEENRTPT. When populating AEENRF, if the value of AEONGO is "Y", the value of "DURING", "AFTER" or "DURING/AFTER" may be used. When populating AEENRTPT, if the value of AEONGO is "Y", the value of "ONGOING" may be used. When AEONGO refers to the Reference Period (defined in DM.RFSTDTC to DM.RFENDTC) the tabulation variable AEENRF should be populated. When AEONGO is compared to another time point, the tabulation variables AEENRTPT and AEENTPT should be used. Note: AEENRTPT must refer to a time-point anchor described in AEENTPT.(NY)N/ACompleted to indicate that the AE has not resolved at the time of data collection, when no end date is collected. In some cases the ongoing status may be determined from AE Outcome. The purpose of collecting this field is to help with data cleaning and monitoring; this field provides further confirmation that End Date was deliberately left blank. Often used as a tick/checkbox.17

May be used to derive a value into the tabulation variable DASTAT. If DAPERF="N", the value of DASTAT will be "NOT DONE". If DAPERF="Y", DASTAT should be null. A combination of tabulation variables ( e.g., DACAT and DASCAT, DATPT) is used to indicate that multiple tests were not done. In this situation, the tabulation variable DATESTCD would be populated as DAALL and an appropriate test name (DATEST) provided.(NY)N/AThis general prompt question is used as a data management tool to verify that missing results are confirmed missing. This may be implemented for all tests collected on the same horizontal record or for each specific test. When mapped to the tabulation dataset, the value of DAPERF would apply to all tests on the same record. Use the collection variable [DATESTCD]_DAPERF when implemented on a specific test basis. This is an example of the type of collection variable names that can be used in a denormalized data structure.7

If the protocol allows dispensing different types of study product the CRF can capture the type of product using DACAT. This may be pre-printed on the CRF. If DACAT is not collected (e.g., it is evident from the protocol design), it could be populated during the tabulation dataset creation process. The value of DACAT would apply to all measurements on that record when mapped to the tabulation dataset. If needed, the collection variable [DATESTCD]_DACAT may be used to collect a category for each DATEST.8

This would most commonly be either a heading or a category value pre-printed on the CRF, not a question to which the site would provide an answer. If a question is asked, the response would typically be a applicant-defined codelist. If the form is laid out as a grid, then words such as "Subcategory" can be included as the column header. If known at the time of data collection, the product name may be collected in DASCAT (with appropriate grouping values, but different from those for DACAT). The value of DASCAT would apply to all measurements on that record when mapped to the tabulation dataset. If needed, the collection variable [DATESTCD]_DASCAT may be used to collect a category for each DATEST.9

For the tabulation dataset, concatenate all collected DATE and TIME components and populate the tabulation variable DADTC in ISO 8601 format.N/AN/AThe date study product dispensed/returned should be recorded for each dispensation for a study with multiple periods or multiple products dispensed. A single date may be collected when all observations are performed on the same date. The date of each observation can also be collected using the collection variable [DATESTCD]_DADAT. The date of the observation may be determined from a collected date of visit and in such cases a separate measurement date field is not required. This is an example the type of collection variable names that can be used in a denormalized data structure.11

In addition to the tabulation variable DAORRES, create DATESTCD from the collection variable name and derive the value of DATEST from DATESTCD. The prompt may also contain DATEST. Use appropriate CDISC Controlled Terminology for the test and test code.N/AN/AEach test may be collected using the collection variable [TESTCD] (e.g., RETAMT) or [TESTCD]_DAORRES, where TESTCD is the appropriate CT for the DA test code (e.g., RETAMT_DAORRES). For a study with multiple periods or multiple products dispensed, accountability amounts should be assessed for each dispensation and return. For the tabulation dataset, DAREFID should be used to link related records. This is an example of the types of collection variable names that can be used in a denormalized data structure.12

PCTEST and PCTESTCD must reflect what tests were not done. A combination of tabulation variables (e.g., PCCAT and PCSCAT, PCTPT) is used to indicate that multiple tests were not done. In this situation, the tabulation variable PCTESTCD would be populated as PCALL and an appropriate test name (PCTEST) provided.(NY)N/AThis general prompt question is used as a data management tool to verify that missing results are confirmed missing. This may be implemented at form level or sample level. These may be all samples of a particular type, or all samples taken for some purpose, and may need to be identified by the organization of the data on the form. Each sample collected could result in 1 or more tests performed, so there can be a one-to-one or one-to-many relationship between samples and tests/results.24

For tabulation datasets, If the collection field RERES = "NORMAL", populate the tabulation variables REORRES and RESTRESC with the value of the collection field RERES. If the collection field RERES is "ABNORMAL", populate the tabulation variable REORRES with the collection field REDESC. If the reported findings in REDESC are coded using a dictionary, then the tabulation variable RESTRESC is populated with the dictionary preferred term and REMODIFY is populated with the modified text used for coding. If the reported findings in REDESC are not coded, then the tabulation variable RESTRESC is populated with the collection REDESC field. The tabulation variable RENRIND may be populated with "NORMAL" or "ABNORMAL" if appropriate. \n 2. Where RERES is used to collect standardized values (e.g. a codelist) on the CRF and the value of "OTHER" is included, the collection field RERESOTH can be used to collect free-text values for "Specify Other". When using this field, the "OTHER" value recorded in the collect field RERES field is mapped to the tabulation variable RESTRESC and the value in the collection field RERESOTH is mapped to the tabulation variable REORRES.N/AN/AThe collection field RERES is used when the collected results are not mapped directly to the tabulation variable REORRES and must be transformed.

If the subject has been taking the concomitant [medication/treatment/product] for a considerable amount of time prior to the start of the study, it is acceptable to have an incomplete date. Concomitant [medication/treatment/product] taken during the study are expected to have a complete start date. Prior concomitant [medication/treatment/product] that are exclusionary should have both a start and end date.CMSTDTCThis does not map directly to a tabulation variable. For the tabulation dataset, concatenate all collected START DATE and TIME components and populate the tabulation variable CMSTDTC in ISO 8601 format.N/AN/AThe assumption is that applicants should either have a Start Date or will indicate that the medication,therapy or product was started before, during, or after the study period. The preferred method is to collect a complete Start Date. Partial dates (e.g., providing year only) for medications/treatment/product started a considerable amount of time prior to the start of study are acceptable.22

May be used to populate a value into a tabulation relative timing variable such as CMSTRF or CMSTRTPT. When populating CMSTRF, or CMSTRTPT, if the value of the collection field CMPRIOR is "Y" a value from the CDISC CT (STENRF) may be used. When CMPRIOR refers to the Study Reference Period (defined in DM.RFSTDTC to DM.RFENDTC), the tabulation variable CMSTRF should be populated. When CMPRIOR is compared to another time point, the tabulation variables CMSTRTPT and CMSTTPT should be used. Note: CMSTRTPT must refer to the time-point anchor described in CMSTTPT.(NY)N/AApplicants may collect this information rather than start dates.24

When populating CMENRF, if the value of CMONGO is "Y", the values of "DURING", "AFTER", or "DURING/AFTER" may be used. When populating CMENRTPT, if the value of CMONGO is "Y", the value of "ONGOING" may be used. When CMONGO refers to the Study Reference Period (defined in DM.RFSTDTC to DM.RFENDTC) the tabulation variable CMENRF should be populated. When CMONGO is used in conjunction with another time point, the tabulation variables CMENRTPT and CMENTPT should be used. Note: CMENRTPT must refer to a time-point anchor described in CMENTPT.(NY)N/AThis box should be checked to indicate that the concomitant medication/treatment/product has not stopped at the time of data collection. It is expected that every recorded medication/treatment/product should have either an end date or be checked as ongoing, but not both. However, in cases where ongoing concomitant medications/treatments/products are not permitted, it may not be necessary to include an Ongoing field in the CRF.25

However, in cases where the end date can be determined from dates collected elsewhere in the CRF it is not necessary to include an End Date field on the CRF. For example, if all concomitant medications/treatments/products are administered only once during a trial, the end date will be the same as the start date.26
