Definition
The treatment section is for recording treatments that have been provided to the subject of the case report. These may be medications or any other treatments the reporter feels pertinent to include in the report. Note: We did not re-use the CCD medication section for 2 reasons: 1) Some workflows may require reporting of typical treatments that were NOT prescribed. 2) Although not in the current condition specific report types - this section may include treatments broader than more than just medications .
