The QRS Short_Name example below shows the terminology used to implement the instrument in the QS domain. This example shows the data for 1 subject collected at the baseline visit for the QRS Short_Name instrument. The example uses CDISC Controlled Terminology for QSTESTCD, QSTEST, and QSCAT. All original results are represented with preferred terminology in QSORRES. When there are numeric results, then use this sentence next, "This result is then transformed into the standard numeric score in QSSTRESN and a character representation of the standard numeric score in QSSTRESC.When the results are character only, then use these sentences next, "This result is then transformed into the standard character representation in QSSTRESCQSSTRESN is null as there are no standardized numeric results for this instrument."


Info

Note: There are several optional space-saving options that can be included in the paragraph as appropriate or needed. Historically, we needed these to save space in Word/PDF documents. As we move to all wiki/html, these are likely not needed, but we are waiting to remove these options until we're sure:

  • "This example is based on a instrument with an evaluation interval of xxx." allows the QSEVLINT (or QSEVINTX) column to be removed from the example. Note that it was not used for the IDS-SR instrument used in the example below as it is not the same for all items.
  • "This example is based on a instrument with an evaluation interval of the past week. QSLOBXFL is NULL based on VISITNUM = 2." saves space if there are a large number of columns.  If this statement is used, leave off the QSEVLINT, QSLOBXFL and VISITNUM columns in the example.
  • "QSSTRESN is null as there are no standardized numeric results for this instrument."  This statement is used when there are no standardized numeric values.  The QSSTRESN column is then removed from the below example.
