Datacapt Version 4.14

Updated over a month ago

Release on Tuesday, July 2nd, 2024 between 09:00 pm and 11:30 pm UTC.

This version adds the complete scheduling feature for recruitment studies. We also added some minor features for the eCRF builder.

New Features

eCRF.

  • Builder advanced options:

    • Exclude from data exports: This feature allows users to mark specific data fields (items) to be excluded from data exports. This can be particularly useful for data clean up (excluding calculs or data that should not be part of the final dataset).

    • Hide in eCRF: This feature allows users to hide specific data fields within the electronic Case Report Form (eCRF). By hiding irrelevant fields, you can make the eCRF more user-friendly and reduce the risk of data entry errors.

    • Item Role-Based Visibility: This feature allows you to control the visibility of specific data fields within the eCRF based on user roles. This ensures that users see only the information relevant to their responsibilities, enhancing both security and usability. You can assign visibility rules to each data field, specify which roles can view the field.

    • Item Role-Based Edit: This feature allows you to control the editability of specific data fields within the eCRF based on user roles. This ensures that users can only modify the information relevant to their responsibilities. You can assign editability rules to each data field and specify which roles can edit the field.

ePRO

  • Manual occurrences - This new feature allows the user to create occurrences manually for the ePRO. Previously, it was only possible to generate occurrences automatically based on a predefined schedule, which was limiting. With this enhancement, users can now manage the sending of occurrences more flexibly, enabling them to send the same ePRO multiple times as needed.

  • Print Blank ePRO PDF - You can now print the ePRO PDF blank even when the study is LIVE or ENDED.

Study Settings

  • Edit Center Code - You can now edit the center code even if the study is LIVE for center without any participants. Previously, this was limiting because new centers introduced during the study couldn't be accommodated. Now, it is possible to make these changes with more flexibility.

API

  • ePRO Survey List - We added an API to retrieve the ePRO survey list, providing all the necessary information to use the API and better manage ePRO.

  • Initiate ePRO invitation - Our customers can now send ePRO invitations whenever they want through the API. This feature is very useful if the customer wants to manage the ePRO using another device or connected device.

CTMS

Recruitment

  • Appointment Schedule - We have added a new feature to create appointment schedules for recruitment studies. This allows you to create predefined schedules and visits that can be booked directly by participants online or by the research center.

    You can create Open Booking or Sequential Booking. Open Booking allows more flexibility and scheduling based on the participant's availability. Sequential Booking automatically assigns all the visits to the participant at once, and the appointments can still be changed.

  • Visit List - You now have a visit list with all the necessary information per participant, allowing you to easily manage your visits and confirm them. You can also manage the visit status, application status, and payments with flexibility.



  • Payment per visit - We have added an option to manage the participant payment per visit.

Improvements

General

  • Inclusion list - We improved user navigation for searches and multi-page views. Previously, when a user entered an eCRF from the third page of the inclusion list and then returned, they were always redirected to the first page. Now, users will be taken back to the same page they were on, enhancing the overall navigation experience.

  • Interface - We have updated our main interface, improving both performance and security.

  • Slider - We have updated the slider design to fix a visual effect.
