basic crf for streamlined data collection

Sites with limited resources for data collection can now utilise a modified Case Report Form (CRF), referred to as the Basic CRF. This CRF features a significant reduction in data collection frequency, while maintaining collection of important variables to achieve research targets and analysis of clinically relevant outcomes.

To use the Basic CRF, your site must already be enrolled in this study. You can find more information and the relevant documents on your region’s study page.
