Overview
The study schedule is the detailed plan of the clinical trial, outlining all planned visits, procedures, and timelines for each participant. It serves as the foundational roadmap for study conduct and completion. It allows you to define the structure of your trial, including phases or groups, visits, and activities.
Study schedules are version-controlled, allowing you to apply changes as needed. The version with the Current status is applied to new participants by default. In most cases, existing participants should be updated to the current schedule.
