Remove all [bracketed] and/or red text before publishing! And also the purple note panels!
[Bracketed] text should be replaced with actual content.
Red text is instructional.
Header Case
Title of page and response option headers should be sentence case (to match how they display in the online system).
Other headers in page that aren’t response options should be title case (Description, On-Screen Instructions, etc.).
| Page Properties | |||||||||

Labels
Use form_field and any relevant segment labels (asc, hospital, nursingfacility, pharmacy)
Use the relevant section label (e.g., surgical_event, event_information)
Note: event-specific fields should be tagged with the associated event type (e.g., surgical_event, fall_event) and NOT with overarching header “event_information”)
Use required if the field is required to submit for all reports.
For example, “it is required if it appears” should not be labeled “required.”
Use essential if the field is a top priority for transferring the data dictionary.
Note: if the field is required, it will already be considered “essential” and doesn’t need a second label.
All “essential” labels will need to be removed before the data dictionary goes live.
