As a Super Abstractor, you can assign a priority number to a trial from the abstraction dashboard's Details page. Trial priority is an indication of the relative importance of the trial, from high priority to low, as follows:
- 1 = High. Assigning this priority moves the trial to the top of the abstractor's list of trials to process.
- 2 = Normal
- 3 = Low. Assigning this priority moves the trial to the bottom of the abstractor's list of trials to process.
In the figure above, a Super Abstractor assigned the trial to an abstractor and made the processing of this trial a High priority (1).
How to Assign Trial Priorities
- Search for the trial you want to prioritize by following the instructions in Using the Super Abstractor's Dashboard Search Criteria Page.
- On the Results page, click the NCI Trial Identifier link for the trial you want to prioritize. The Details page appears.
- At the bottom of the Details page, next to Processing Priority, select the priority number from the drop-down list.
- Optionally, enter text in the Trial Processing Comments text box describing the reason for the priority assignment.
- Click Save.
