Overview

Certain users (such as PIs) are exposed to subject Lab Test results via Study > Lab Data, Study > Data, and applicable reports. This creates issues with eliminating bias and meeting blinding requirements of certain trials, since some users may be able to gain insight into which subjects were dosed with the study drug based on certain test results. The Clinic requires a way to blind the results from everyone except specified user roles (for example, an unblinded physician).

...

The blinding settings can be updated, even after the Study starts.

You can update the access to Test Results in the Lab > Configure area, but this will only affect the Lab Results that have not yet come back from the Lab.

If you need to update the access to Test Results that had already been resulted, you can do this via Labs > Orders > Specimen area.

Breaking the blind?

Does a Blinded User have to be Blinded for all Studies?

...

This means, that if a PI can have both - “Blinded PI” and “Unblinded PI” Roles assigned to them in their User Role list. Then, if this user is blinded for Study A, they can be added in Study > Configure > User Access with their “Blinded PI” Role. If that same user is unblinded for Study B, they can be setup for this Study with their “Unblinded PI” Role.
