Data collection log form: Difference between revisions

Line 110:

The PDA collection log (data collection log) was a useful form when we started data collection manually. Recording the information on this form is actually duplicating what is being entered into the PDA or laptop. We will be reviewing some alternate ideas that may lend themselves to the elimination of this form. Transcribing information onto paper then inputting into PDA or laptop adds to the workload of collection. No changes at the moment but will keep you posted.-[[User:TOstryzniuk|TOstryzniuk]] 19:03, 17 May 2010 (CDT)

**feedback from collection staff is that they need these paper forms in order to organize their work before inputting into laptop. Too difficult to do direct input into laptop while on wards/units in a number of cases.
