Using Castor

By now, you will have already created Case Report Forms which will be available on Castor. Let’s say that you have just brought in your first real participant into the lab.

After having the participant fill out the informed consent form, you will then want to open Castor at https://data.castoredc.com/.

Note

Be sure to always log into Castor on its Netherlands server - this is mandatory for data protection and security.

Using Castor for Screening

  1. Open your study (this must already be set to Live), then go to Participants

  2. Push the + New button on the top right and put the subject number in (from the Calendar)

  3. Let the participant fill in any relevant sections in your Case Report Form such as screening and the general information sections

Using Castor for Documentation

Throughout the session, you should document any incidents (or lack thereof) on the respective sections of the Case Report Form
