How To Set Up Symptoms

Setting up a symptom on Zamplo Research, and then adding it to a Routine allows you to monitor when participants experience a symptom.

You may add symptoms to a routine if you want to monitor what symptoms appear or change due to a treatment plan or how a diagnosis may impact a participant’s symptoms. You may also want to assess the impact of symptoms with other health data, such as medications or activities, that’s captured during the project.

To add a symptom:

1.  Login to your Zamplo Research account
2. From the dashboard, navigate to the left side of the screen and click the “Study Setup” dropdown
3. Click “Symptoms”
4. To add a new symptom, click the “Add New Symptom” button in the top right
5. Type the name of the symptom you want to add
   1. Use the preset option that appears or make a custom entry 
6. Select the measure that you want participants to use for tracking
   1. Option one is Yes/No and option two is a scale of 0 to 10
7. Select a graph colour and style that will correspond to this symptom
8. Once you are finished, click “Save”
