myCSG © |Area: ADaM| Concept: C1007 : ADaM BDS - Visit Windowing | Lesson: L101 : Creation of visit windowing based on ADY and prespecified intervals - parameter invariant |

Background for visit windowing

  • In clinical trials, we collect certain data at planned intervals
  • The planned intervals are called 'visits'
  • Each planned visit will have a specific target day on which the collection has to be made in an ideal scenario
  • This 'planned day' is generally called as 'target day' for that visit
  • Sometimes, it is fine to collect the data around the target day by plus or minus a few prespecified number of days
  • That is, instead of a target day, the collection can be made in a 'target window'
  • Each window will have a target day, beginning timepoint, and an ending timepoint
  • Any collection made in the time window for a specific time point (visit) will be analyzed under that visit

ADaM implementation

  • CDISC ADaM standard allows for visit windowing
  • There are standard variables available to use when visit windowing is required
  • AWTARGET is used to capture the target day for the visit
  • AWLO is used to capture the allowed beginning timepoint for that visit
  • AWHI is used to capture the allowed ending timepoint for that visit
  • AWU is used to capture the visit window units (days, months, years etc)
