Study Visits
The Study Visits report generates graphical and tabulation displays of study visit attendance. Additionally, a distribution of study days for each specified visit is shown.
Report Results Description
Running this report with the Nicardipine sample setting and default options generates the output shown below.
The Report initially displays Visit Counts and a series of Visit Day Distributions.
Visit Counts:
Presents a stacked Bar Chart colored by treatment and a table summarizing the number of subjects in each treatment ARM that attended each visit.
Visit Day Distributions:
Presents a Histogram by visit of the study days on which the visits occur. Useful to identify whether subjects have gotten off schedule or if visit dates have been entered incorrectly. There is a separate distribution for each visit.
It contains the following elements:
| • | One Histogram and associated statistics for each visit. |
The histograms show the distribution of the study day for the start date of study visits by visit. They are useful in identifying whether subjects have gotten off schedule or whether visit dates have been entered incorrectly.
See Distribution for more information.

Report Options
Treatment or Comparison Variable:
When specifying a treatment or comparison variable, distributions of the variables are shown in the output.
Available variables include Planned, which is selected when the treatments patients received exactly match what was planned and Actual, which is selected when treatment deviates from what was planned. You can also specify a variable other than TRTxxP (planned treatment) or TRTxxA (actual treatment). Finally you can select None to plot the data without segregating it by a treatment variable.
See Treatment or Comparison Variable to Use, or Treatment or Comparison Variable for more information.
Unscheduled Visits
Unscheduled visits can occur for a variety of reasons and can complicate analyses. By default, these are excluded from this analysis. However, by unchecking the Remove unscheduled visits box, you have the option of including them.
Filtering the Data:
Filters enable you to restrict the analysis to a specific subset of subjects and/or specific visits, based on values within variables. You can also filter based on population flags (Safety is selected by default) within the study data.
If there is a supplemental domain (SUPPxx) associated with your study, you can opt to merge the non-standard data contained therein into your data.
You can also subdivide the subjects and run analyses for distinct groups by specifying one or more BY variables.
