You need to specify a set of parameters that will be used when designing studies in the Library Management and Study Definition modules. The parameters are:
Standard formats - formats for questions requiring text, numeric and date/time data responses
Study phases - names for each of the various phases in a study
Study types - used when specifying that a question is required for studies of a certain type
Units of measurement - used when creating questions whose responses use a unit of measurement
Validation types - used for the validation of individual questions
Normal ranges and CTC - a set of ranges that are used for validating laboratory test question responses against normal ranges and CTC schemes
