Introduction & Notes
This document contains survey questions revised for the contract #200-2015-63553: Monitoring and
Coordinating Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in Healthcare to Enhance Domestic Preparedness for
Ebola Response.
Several of the matrices in this document are currently undergoing development by the REDCap team.
They are therefore displayed as draft mockups to convey, in general, the user experience.
These questions were drafted prior to the completion of survey development and the MVP
requirements phase. If survey questions change due to new information, an amendment will be
submitted as an update to this list of questions.
Questions for the following surveys are summarized in this document:








Annual: This survey will be completed annually, alongside the hospital. It will be part of hospital
training in the first year and will serve as a checkpoint in years two and three. It is important to
note that someone from VUMC will be completing this survey together, with the participating
hospital.
Quarterly: This survey is separated by hospital area and will most likely be sent to multiple
people. Hospitals can designate who will receive each group of questions.
o Hospital Administration
o Purchasing
o Safety
o Emergency Preparedness
o Infection Control
o Occupational Health
Emergency: The Emergency Survey enables weekly data collection during an emergent scenario,
like a pandemic event that will typically last multiple weeks. There are three questions on this
survey, which will be administered via text message. During the project, hospitals will participate
in a four-week training/testing period to prepare for Emergency data collection.
Crisis: The Crisis Survey is designed for localized, rapid data collection, which will span a short
duration to enable timely decision-making. The Crisis Survey will leverage a text message interface
and will be 1-3 questions maximum.

REDCap branching logic is heavily integrated into these surveys. Asterisks denote questions that will only
display due to branching logic. This document represents the total number of possible questions. In
reality, it will be impossible for a hospital to view them all, due to branching logic.
