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.).

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.

OPTION ONE: Answer options with content (definition and/or inclusions, exclusions)

Add an anchor in front of the H1 “Responses” heading and name the anchor “Top.”

Include a table of contents, which should be limited to the answer option headers and displayed as a list.

Add a dividing line macro below the table of contents.

Definition

Copy/paste the “description” text from the data dictionary.

Inclusions and Exclusions

Add a page layout of two equal columns below the definition. Inclusions go in the left column, exclusions in the right.

Dividing Line

Add a dividing line after the “return to top” link and before the next answer option, or the next section (probably “Guide for Use”).

OPTION TWO: Answer options without content

Just list the available answer options without the answerID and answerCode.
