A timeframe (referred to as a study reference period), fixed points in time, and other milestones, may be defined in the context of a study as references to which the timing of other collected observations are related. The following will be collected using TIG Collection or CDASH Model Timing variables fields when references for the timing of other observations are defined:

...

The following steps should be taken when designing CRFs to ensure observations of interest can be related to study reference periods, fixed points in time, and/or milestones.

or milestone (B or C). The fixed point in time or milestone can be a date or a description. This will map into the TIG Tabulation Variables --STTPT or --ENTPT when the tabulation datasets are created. Collected comparisons (D or E) use TIG Collection Variables (e.g., “prior”, “ongoing”) for when something started or ended, in relation to the fixed point in time or milestone (B or C). These collection variables are used to populate the TIG Tabulation Variables--STRTPT or --ENRTPT when tabulation datasets are created.
