Thank you, both for the advice. I will take your feedback into account and make improvements based on it.
Thank you very much.

Please note that the following comments are simply my suggestions for improvement of the CRF and are not intended as judgments. I hope this might be helpful for your CRF.

Specific Comments
1. Instructions: The CRF lacks clear instructions. When administering the CRF, we need to specify whether participants will complete it independently or with…[Read more]

I want to add a bit more to this. Additionally, let’s ensure that the date format is clear. We should standardize it to have the month written out clearly, such as ‘Jan’ instead of just ’01’, to avoid redundancy.

I believe we shouldn’t gather the date of birth because it’s considered indirectly identifiable information. Additionally, this CRF collects both the date of birth and age, which is redundant and unnecessary.

Implementing data standards in clinical research empowers clinicians by facilitating the generation and investigation of novel research hypotheses that extend beyond the original study’s scope. This seamless integration of data across diverse research sites paves the way for the development of new hypotheses and the creation of applications (e.g.,…[Read more]

In my study investigating participation and experience within the primary healthcare system, utilizing case record forms (CRFs), I implemented several data management processes within REDCap to ensure data quality and integrity:

Audit Trail/Time Stamp: REDCap automatically tracked user actions and data modifications, including timestamps,…[Read more]

Thank you for sharing your experience with data collection!
My institute, Phramongkutalo College of Medicine, also utilizes REDCap for data collection and has found it to be a highly valuable tool, particularly for gathering survey data. We find this tool to be incredibly beneficial, particularly within the realm of survey data management.

I completely agree with Nicha’s insights on database security. Working as a study coordinator in a hospital environment, I understand the challenges of frequent password changes, especially with infrequent system access. Implementing multi-factor authentication would significantly enhance security without relying solely on biometrics, which might…[Read more]

Based on my experience in data collection and management, I have participated in several steps of the workflow, including:
Data Design: I assisted in categorizing the information to be collected during the project on non-communicable diseases among paramilitary personnel.
Data Collection: I actively participated in the data collection process,…[Read more]

As a fourth-year medical student, I participated in a research project investigating the incidence of Opisthorchis viverrini infection through primary data collection. My team and I conducted interviews using mobile devices and Google Forms to gather data in a rural area of Chachengsao province.

We faced several obstacles. Verifying case records…[Read more]

I would like to highlight a point on page 344 regarding the superiority of confidence intervals over tests and P values. Confidence intervals enable us to redirect our focus away from the null hypothesis towards the entire spectrum of effect sizes consistent with the data. This shift in focus is advocated by numerous authors and an increasing…[Read more]

In my assessment, it is essential to understand why respondents are not utilizing bed nets for malaria prevention in order to design effective interventions. To achieve this, I propose the following comprehensive methods:

1. Qualitative Study:
– Focus Group Discussions: Participants will be divided into two groups: those who have not used bed…[Read more]

In the context of the TAM, the model suggests that perceived usefulness is a crucial factor influencing users’ acceptance and adoption of technology. If you are replacing an old technology with a new one that is more useful and facilitates easier completion of tasks, the TAM would generally suggest that the new technology should be perceived as at…[Read more]
