Skip to contents

Convenience helper that returns a table with one row per framework item, an empty value column for the user to fill in, and a status column recording each item's state.

Usage

instar_template(study_type = c("both", "lab", "field"))

Arguments

study_type

Optional. One of "lab", "field", or "both". If supplied, items flagged as not applicable in that context are pre-marked with status = "not_applicable".

Value

An instar_items table with columns item_id, item, domain, description, value, status.

Details

Write substantive content into value to report an item. Leave it blank for items the study does not report. Use instar_na() to mark items that do not apply.
