Coding



New


The Coding element references a symbol from a defined code system. It uses a code defined in a terminology system to associate semantics with a given term, codelist, variable, or group of variables. The presence of a Coding ODM-6 Done element associates a meaning to its parent element.

Nested ItemGroupDef
Enhanced

Groups of ItemGroups or ItemsDefs, allowing nested structures that can represent a more diverse range of data structures.

The revised ItemGroupDef element facilitates a number of new capabilities based on a more flexible re-use of groups of items; for instance, defining enhanced semantics when items share a common relationship or ODM-2 Under Team Review grouping common behaviors such as skip logic or pre-population.

3
StudyEventGroupDef
New

Groups of StudyEventGroups or StudyEvents, allowing nesting ODM-3 Under Team Review of StudyEventGroups. StudyEventGroups are also used to define "study cells", i.e. crossings of epochs and arms.

Study Design Model (SDM-XML) integration and enhancement

NewNew

The many new study design model elements provide rigorous, machine-readable, interchangeable descriptions of study designs, including treatment plans, study design parameters, eligibility, and times and events. The new and updated study design elements permit various levels of detail in any representation of a clinical study’s design.

Operational Datasets


New


Reference implementation that uses ODM v2.0 to represent datasets for the exchange of tabular raw data, such as an EDC vendor, CRO or service provider sending data to a sponsor as a tabular dataset.

JSON Serialization

New


ODM v2.0 includes an updated version of Dataset-XML and a serialization optimized for JSON called Dataset-JSON

Origin

EnhancedNewRemoved

ODM v2.0 includes an Origin element that replaces and enhances the functionality offered with by the ItemDef@Origin @Origin attribute in ODM 1.3.2.

The Origin information on the ItemDef element has also been moved to the ItemRef element, so that an Item can have a different Origin depending on where it is used.
