Field types

Built for structured answers

Every row of the dictionary is one REDCap field. Most of them are closed choices, so data stay comparable across departments and ready for analysis.

Data quality by design

47

fields are mandatory: a record should not be saved without them. They are especially important for audit purposes.

96

fields use branching logic: they only appear when an earlier answer makes them relevant.

9

fields are calculated automatically from other answers, never typed by hand.
