A repeating group may consist of more than one attribute (field). For example imagine that in the above example the researcher also decided to collect a single weight measurement during each visit in the following manner:
|
Doc id |
Doc name |
Patient name |
weight |
|
1 |
smith |
Gray Harvey Anderson Smith |
7.5 9.0 10.5 |
|
2 |
Jarvis |
Hewitt |
16.0 |
|
3 |
Goodall |
Farmer |
8.0 |
Here we have a repeating group that consists of two attributes (patient name and weight).
For: Clinicians | NHS managers | Non healthcare workers
