SURVEY_CONDUCT
The SURVEY_CONDUCT table is used to store an instance of a completed survey or questionnaire. It captures details of the individual questionnaire such as who completed it, when it was completed and to which patient treatment or visit it relates to (if any). Each SURVEY has a SURVEY_CONCEPT_ID, a concept in the CONCEPT table identifying the questionnaire e.g. EQ5D, VR12, SF12. Each questionnaire should exist in the CONCEPT table. Each SURVEY can be optionally related to a specific patient visit in order to link it both to the visit during which it was completed and any subsequent visit where treatment was assigned based on the patient's responses.

Conventions
| No. | Convention Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Patient responses to survey questions are stored in the OBSERVATION table. Each record in the OBSERVATION table represents a single question/response pair and is linked to a specific SURVEY/questionnaire using OBSERVATION.DOMAIN_OCCURRENCE_ID and SURVEY.SURVEY_OCCURRENCE_ID. |
| 2 | Each response record is the response to a specific question identified by the OBSERVATION_CONCEPT_ID. This concept ID is a unique question contained in the CONCEPT table. |
| 3 | An individual survey question can have multiple responses to a question (e.g. which of these items relate to you, a, b, c ,…?). Each response is stored as a separate record in the OBSERVATION table.
|
| 4 | The question / answer observation record is linked to the patient questionnaire used for collecting the data using two new fields in the OBSERVATION table; DOMAIN_ID and DOMAIN_OCCURRENCE_ID.
|
| 5 | The OBSERVATION table can also store survey scoring results. Many validated PRO questionnaires have scoring algorithms (many of which proprietary) that return an overall patient score based on the answers provided.
