Project Development

Once a project is created, it will be available on the "My Projects" tab. In this development phase, changes can be made as often as needed. Data entry should be tested in this phase with test data. Do not collect any real or live data in the development phase. Test (not live) data should be used to ensure that the project operates as expected.

Projects must be moved to the production phase to start collecting live data. Any live data collected during the development phase will be lost when the project moves to production.

Project Production

To start collecting live data, users must move a project into the production phase by emailing redcap@slu.edu with either a copy of the IRB approval letter or indication the project is quality improvement. 

Projects that do not have IRB approval or quality improvement exception will not be considered for production.

Data may be identifiable when entered into the REDCap application but users must ensure that data is de-identified before exporting the data, as per the user's respective IRB agreement. A video on how to de-identify your data is available within REDCap under 鈥淒ata Exports, Reports, and Stats鈥� within an existing project. Please review the SLU Institutional Review Board website for more information regarding identifiable information.

Several short and informative videos are available on the . These excellent videos explain how to use REDCap and how to create different types of projects.
