Days After Event Custom Field Answered

Thejas Suvarna

Hello,

 

We are working on a questionnaire for a new study and have a quick question.  The question we’re trying to work out is:

 

Now let’s think about postoperative day # (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7), which was (date). This is (the time after surgery from leaving the recovery area to midnight that evening, first full day after surgery, second full day after surgery, third full day after surgery, fourth full day after surgery, fifth full day after surgery, sixth day after surgery, seventh full day after surgery). 

 

So for each post-op day, we want the date embedded in the question. We have day of surgery as a custom field, but from what I understand, I can’t do like ‘day of surgery+1’ and have that work.  The only way I could think of doing this is making a custom field for each post-op day. Let me know if you have any ideas.

 

Thanks!

    Hello,

    We have some new functionality coming to help make this easier in the near future, but for now, the solution below should work.

     

    Custom Fields:

    - Date of Survey (DateTime)

    - Postoperative Day (Integer)

     

    Schedules:

    Set PostOp Day 1:
    Based on Participant Event

    • 24 hours after Date Of Surgery.
    • Trigger: Set Postoperative Day Custom Field to 1

    Set PostOp Day 2

    • 48 hours after Date Of Surgery.
    • Trigger: Set Postoperative Day Custom Field to 2

    And so on for each day that you need.

     

    This will require 7 schedules as of now to get to Day 7.
