1.1 Representations and Warranties, Limitations of Liability, and Disclaimers

This document is a supplement to the SDTMIG for Human Clinical Trials and is covered under Appendix F of that document, which describes representations, warranties, limitations of liability, and disclaimers. Please see Appendix F of the SDTMIG for a complete version of this material.

2 Copyright Status

CDISC believes this instrument to be in the public domain, but you should perform your own assessment. CDISC has included the 4-STAIR DESCEND in the library CDISC inventory of QRS data standards supplements. Hence, CDISC developed FTTESTCD and FTTEST for each item based on the actual text on the instrument

3 The FT Domain Model

3.1 Assumptions for FT Domain Model

All assumptions and business rules described in the SDTMIG FT domain are applicable to this supplement. Additional assumptions specific to the 4-STAIR DESCEND are listed below.

...

  1. The numerical value for the time to complete the 4-STAIR DESCEND is recorded using ISO8601 ISO 8601 format in FTORRES and FTSTRESC. Because ISO 8601 format is a text format, there are no standard numeric scores or units. The sponsor enters the time on the CRF in minutes and seconds according to their protocol. (e.g., 1 minute 10 seconds is represented in the FT domain in ISO 8601 format as "T1M10S")
  2. For the test grade (where FTTESTCD = "D4STR104"), FTORRES is populated with the text description. The numeric rating is represented in FTSTRESC and FTSTRESN.

  3. If the entire instrument was not done, the first question on the CRF represents the reason the entire instrument was not done. If the reason not done is provided, then FTSTAT = "NOT DONE" and FTREASND is equal to the text written on the form for all the test codes. 

    1. If the test was not done due to disease, the record where FTTESTCD = "D4STR101" will have FTORRES and FTSTRESC equal to "No, Due to disease under study" and the test grade (FTTESTCD = "D4STR104") will be represented with a value of 1 = "Unable to walk independently"descend 4 standard stairs."

      keyQRSSUPP-616
      .

  4. Some items on the 4-STAIR

    DESCEND

    ASCEND may be

    logically skipped

    conditionally branched per the instrument instructions. If the test was not done because of disease, FTTESTCD = "D4STR102" and "D4STR103" are not done and are treated as

    logically skipped

    conditionally branched items. A record is created in ft.xpt for all items. When an item is considered a

    logically skipped

    conditionally branched item, it is represented as follows:

    FTSTAT FTREASND = "LOGICALLY SKIPPED ITEM"
    1. QNAM = "FTCBRFL", QLABEL = "

    NOT DONE"     
    1. Conditionally Branched Item Flag", QVAL = "Y" (this is a FT supplemental qualifier variable related to the record).


    1. FTORRES, FTSTRESC, and FTSTRESN are set to null (missing).

    5. Terminology:
    1. FTCAT, FTTESTCD, and FTTEST values are included in CDISC Controlled Terminology.

    2. A full list of value sets for result and units fields is provided in Section 4, SDTM Mapping Strategy.

3.2 Example for the 4-STAIR DESCEND FT Domain Model

The 4-STAIR DESCEND example below shows the terminology used to implement the instrument in the FT domain. This example shows

and FTCAT. All original results, matching the CRF item response text, are represented in FTORRES. This result is then represented as a standard numeric score in FTSTRESN and as a standard character representation in FTSTRESC.
