Visualization library
This visualization library contains a list of representative ePRO longitudinal, comparative, and performance graphs and tables available in the online toolkit that can be used to design ePRO reports and assess user preferences.
Note: These graphs and tables convey the general nature of ePRO visualizations. They do not provide actual ePRO information.
