<p>REDCap database casting and handling of castellated data when using repeated instruments and longitudinal projects.</p>
<p>This package is a fork of <a href="https://github.com/pegeler/REDCapRITS" class="external-link">pegeler/REDCapRITS</a>. The REDCapRITS represents great and extensive work to handle castellated REDCap data in different programming languages. This fork is purely minded on R usage and includes a few implementations of the main <code>REDCap_split</code> function.</p>
<p>I started working on this project as the castellated longitudinal data set was a little challenging. Later, I have come to learn of the <a href="https://github.com/vubiostat/redcapAPI" class="external-link"><code>redcapAPI</code></a> package, which would also cover this functionality. I find the <code>redcapAPI</code>package quite advanced and a little difficult to work with. This have led to the continued work on this package, as an easy-to-use approach for data migration, data base creation and data handling. This package is very much to be seen as an attempt at a R-to-REDCap-to-R foundry for handling both the transition from dataset/variable list to database and the other way, from REDCap database to a tidy dataset. The goal was also to allow for a “minimal data” approach by allowing to filter records, instruments and variables in the export to only download data needed. I think this approach is desirable for handling sensitive, clinical data. Please refer to <a href="https://redcap-tools.github.io/" class="external-link">REDCap-Tools</a> for other great tools for working with REDCap in R.</p>
<p>For any more advanced uses, consider using the <code>redcapAPI</code> package.</p>
