Date Variables
Dates can now be calculated in variables. This could be useful for things like quit date for smoking based on a participants date they pledge to stop smoking.
Close event block logic action
Event blocks have made event scheduling very flexible. It has created a new way for your intervention to assign events to a participants in a modular manner based off of specific data. Now, the the “close event block” logic action, you can also end event blocks based off of logic.
Most recent data in adherence snapshot
You now have the option to show the most recent participant data first in the adherence snapshot. Originally the data appeared from oldest → newest. We switched it up allowing you to choose to show the most recent data first.
Variables and individual responses in adherence anapshot
The adherence snapshot just got more useful and robust! We can now show variables in the adherence snapshot! What would that look like? For example you could show a calculated gestational week variable above a weekly blood pressure in order to track a participants BP over time. You can also show multiple participant responses in the adherence snapshot. For example, if you have a daily survey with 3 questions, you can display all three responses in the adherence snapshot under the date of completion.
Update survey and conversation responses in Manage Data
In Manage Data, we have updated the way we record some responses (or lack of response:
not answered ( . )
not asked ( - )
error ( ? )
Use variables in conversations and surveys
You can use your study wide variables in conversations and surveys to make them even more customized to your participants. This could include date, names or goals. Any variable you calculate can be used in these scenarios.
Calculate values in surveys and conversations
Calculating values in surveys and conversations will allow you “score” or aggregate specific responses as needed. This would be helpful in many clinical scoring tools, like the PHQ-9, in which a total number based on participant responses is relevant to their care or outcomes.
Re-Enroll Participants in W2H
We made it possible for Heart Safe Motherhood, a blood pressure monitoring program for new moms, to be able to re-enroll participants in their intervention through the Pennchart integration. This was important because women who experience high blood pressure with their first child could likely experience it with a second pregnancy and need to be monitored with the Heart Safe Motherhood protocol again.
Behind the Scenes
Add appropriate logic actions to W2H sections
Add noncompliant logic action to Enrollment Block events
Add assignStudyGroup logic action to Arm Event
Add ClassifyData (Set adherence snapshot category) to Enrollment Block events
Allow selection of multiple sources in Participant Data and Survey-based Value variables
