Study Info

On the home page, selecting a study will display the Study Info. This includes the Study Name, Study Status, Study Notes (visible to all EDC users), a dropdown field to view Study Features, and whether PHI will be collected.

Clicking “Edit Study” allows for general study settings to be modified such as “Info,” “Features,” and “PHI Settings.”

1. Study Name: Title of the study that will appear on the top of the app home screen for participants

2. Status: Describes the current state of the study as follows:

   1. Development: Study is being built according to your project requirements

   2. Testing: Study is being tested to ensure it functions as intended

   3. Active: Study is collecting live data

   4. Complete: Study has finished collecting live data

   5. Archive: All necessary reports have been saved and the research team no longer has access to the study

3. Staff Phone Number: The phone number participants can call to contact the research team (if applicable)

4. Counselor Phone Number: The phone number participants can call to contact their counselor (if applicable)

5. Notes: Additional information pertinent to the study (i.e., who to contact for inventory refill for tobacco cessation products, who to contact regarding questions on the study).
   Note: this information only exists here in the EDC. It does not appear in the app.

If “PHI Collection” is selected as a Study Feature, then this dialog box will offer specific PHI that can be collected and which PHI fields are required. “Collected” in this context means that PHI is optional for collection and “Required” means that PHI is required to be collected. The PHI Collection will occur during Participant creation and is explained in the “Participant Management” section.

In each section, selecting “Next“ saves any changes made in that section. A dialog box will appear with a prompt to save any changes made or to close the form with changes unsaved.

Selecting “Done“ on the final section saves all changes to that section (changes on prior pages have already been saved), closes the form, and returns to the Study Info page.
