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.
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/A

Paper: 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.

EDC: This should be pre-populated.

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/A

Paper: 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.

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.
EventsAEN/AN/A5AECATCategory for Adverse ExperienceA grouping of topic-variable values based on user-defined characteristics.What is the category of the adverse experience?[Adverse Experience Category]; NULLCharORecord the adverse experience category, if not pre-printed on the CRF.AECATMaps directly to the tabulation variable listed in the Tabulation Target column.N/AN/AApplicant-defined controlled terminology. 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.
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.
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.
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). Using accepted medical terminology, enter the diagnosis (if known); otherwise enter a sign or symptom.AETERMMaps directly to the tabulation variable listed in the Tabulation Target column.N/AN/ACan be represented either as an open-entry field to capture verbatim terms reported by subjects or pre-printed, in the situation where solicited AEs of interest are captured. In most cases, the verbatim term (i.e., investigator-reported term) will be coded to a standard medical dictionary (e.g., MedDRA, WHO ART) after the data have been collected on the CRF.
EventsAEN/AN/A9AEOCCURAdverse Experience OccurrenceAn indication of whether a pre-specified adverse experience or a group of adverse experiences occurred when information about the occurrence of a specific experience is solicited.Did the subject have [pre-specified adverse experience/group of adverse experiences]?[Specific Adverse Experience ]CharOIndicate if [specific adverse experience] has occurred/is occurring, by checking Yes or No.FA.FAORRESThis does not map directly to an tabulation variable. 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.

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.
