Re: Date of enrolment - retrospective data entry

 

Dear Abyot,

Thank you for your quick answer!

So when I enrol the patient in the first program A (tracker_data_1), I can edit the date of enrolment both in the registration form and in the program stage itself. No problem.

But then when I enrol the same patient in a new program B (tracker_data_2), then I can still edit the “date of treatment” in the form (in green), but the date of enrolment in the program is as of today and cannot be edited (in red). Again, there may not be any problem in prospective data collection, but it would be nice to be able to edit it.

Have a nice evening!

Lise.

Dear Lise,

Can you send us some screenshots? If the enrollment is not yet created, you should be able to edit enrollment dates. Yes, it comes pre-populated with today's date. But it is possible to edit.

Dear all,

Sorry for this series of questions…

Still on tracker.

We are doing some retrospective data entry to test a Tracker program.

We first enrol the patients in a programme A. On the registration form, we are allowed to modify the enrolment date (called date of admission) so that we can correctly do our retrospective data entry.

After completing this programme A, we would like to enrol the same patient in disease-specific program (programs B, C or D) to continue data entry. But when enrolling patients in a new program, we don’t have access to the enrolment date. It is automatically set up as of today.

Obviously, the main purpose of the tracker capture is to enter data prospectively, i.e. it should not be a problem in “real life”. But is there any mean of changing this behaviour and accessing the enrolment date when enrolling in a new program?

Best

Lise.
