INTRODUCTION DOCUMENT OBJECTIVES AND READER ASSUMPTIONS
Volume II, Project Study Forms and Documentation of Transfer to
Computerized Data Items in Master File, provides researchers with detailed
documentation for how data were collected, coded and stored on the data base.
Volume II will help investigators decide: if data were collected in a suitable
way for addressing particular research questions; if revision of forms
affected the collection of specific data items; if data were coded on master,
variable or work files, or are available only on microfilm. The reader is
assumed to be the principal investigator for a project in which data from the
data base will be used.
DOCUMENT STRUCTURE
Because of its size, this volume is divided into ten separate parts, each
containing material on a group of forms related by subject. Each part groups
together similar study forms. Generally, a part covers a single time period.
The parts do not correspond exactly to the hierarchical classification
structure described in Volume I. The parts of Volume II include:

To allow easy access to the data as they appear on the master file, all
documentation for each form or form grouping representing a card series on the
master file is identified by form number appearing at the bottom of each page.
Forms are arranged in what may appear to be illogical numerical order in some
cases, but the arrangement presented here ties forms and their revisions
together and allows an investigator to trace an item through all revision
cycles. Thus, in Part A of Volume II, OB-42 follows OB-9 and OB-10 appears
next to OB-44 and OB-45. (For an explanation of how the master file was
organized to result in this ordering, see the next section of the Introduction.)
All material related to a form is organized as a single unit within each
part of Volume II. The material included for each form is given below in the
order it appears:
• Descriptive Summary of Form. Includes purpose of form, history of use,
revisions and location of records stored on Master File. A table is
provided for each form (except those on microfilm only) showing the
number of records available for each revision.
• Data Items Referencing Form. A list of all data items in computer
files originating from form. List ordered by data item identification
with reference to item number on form.
• Form.
Copy of last revision of form.
• Form item numbers linked to data items. A list organized by form item
numbers of all computerized data items originating from the form.
• Definition of codes. Coding instructions detailing the codes assigned
to each computerized data item from the form.
• Master File Card Image.

• Instructions for Completing Form. The instructions used by study
personnel to complete the form for each case.
• Earlier Forms or Manuals. Copies of earlier versions of forms or
manuals that were used during the study.
MASTER FILE ORGANIZATION AND REVISION OF FORMS
Some understanding of how the master file was organized should aid
investigators who want to trace the entry of data into computerized study
files. The numbering system used both on forms and cards provides information
on how data may be retrieved from the master file.

II.C.iv
Forms
The first forms used in the study were the OB forms; as a consequence,
this group of forms underwent the most revision. At first glance, it appears
that forms disappear from the file and reappear in strange or bewildering
places. In actuality, revisions were made according to a specific method.
Two types of revision and subsequent recodes appear in the master file,
both of which appear in the OB series. In the first type of revision, radical
changes in the concept of a form created a need for new coding in the computer
file. Form OB-9, for example, was replaced by forms OB-40 (an optional form
retained by the institution), OB-42, and OB-43 in April 1962. Data for earlier
patients were recorded on OB-9 and entered on cards 1309, 2309, 3309 and 4309
of the master file; after April 1962, data was recorded on OB-42 and OB-43 and
were entered on cards 0342, 1343 and 2343 of the master file.
In the second type of revision, the Collaborative Perinatal Task Force
considered revisions important enough to warrant the distinction of a new form
number, but considered the data for both forms to be similar enough to allow
combining of data from both the old and new forms on the same card series. An
example of this type of revision is form OB-35, replaced by OB-57 in April
1962. Records for both OB-35 and OB-57 are entered on cards 0357, 1357, 2357,
3357, 4357, and 5357 in the master file.
In assigning numbers to forms and their revisions, designers of the study
followed a plan: prenatal records, history, and summaries of the prenatal
period received numbers 1 through 15; when revised, these forms were assigned
numbers in the forties. Labor and hospital records appeared on the 30 series
of forms. When these forms were revised, they were assigned numbers in the
fifties. Some OB data in the master file were abstracted by NINCDS staff
members from forms filled out at the hospital. Cards derived from this
procedure were designated as coming from forms ADM-49, 50 and 51 (which were
actually ABSTRACT SHEETS). Autopsy protocol and laboratory exams of the
placenta were recorded on forms PATH-1, PATH-2 and PATH-3.
Forms for recording family health history and genetic information during
pregnancy also received a fair amount of revision. Early records appear on
forms FHH-1,2,3 and 4. With revisions in April 1963, form SE-1 replaces part
of FHH-1 and FHH-3; FHH-2, FHH-4 and parts of FHH-1 and FHH-3 were replaced by
II.C.v
Reproduced at the National Archives
forms GEN-5 through GEN-8 in May 1961. Form FHH-9, initiated in November 1965
for collection of socioeconomic data at time the child was seven years of age,
was not replaced or revised.
The PED series of forms underwent little revision. Records for newborn
babies appeared in PED-1 through PED-8; records for children up to age one and
interval records were placed on PED-10 through PED-29. Seven year records were
included in the series numbered PED-74 and up. Only one pediatrics form was
radically revised: PED-7 was replaced by PED-8 in March 1963.
No replacements occur in the PS series, where results of psychological and
speech, language and hearing tests were recorded. The PS forms are divided
into distinct groups based on time of testing and subject of testing.
Psychological testing occurred at 8 months, 4 years and 7 years; speech,
language and hearing exams were administered at ages 3 and 8. Only the 8 month
psychological examination underwent substantial revisions.
Master File Card Number and
NINDB Case Number Rationale
Computer cards for each NCPP study form are numbered to reflect their
origin and possible revisions. Card numbers are assigned to identify the type
of data (subject), the presence of multiple cards in a series, NCPP study form
and form revisions. The first five digits of each card on the master file are
the card number. The study forms and card numbers are given in Figure 1.
The first fourteen columns of each master file computer card contain the
master file card number and the NINDB case number. Table 1 identifies the
function of each of these columns.
Column 1 identifies multiple cards in a series. It contains a zero for
cards unique to a particular form (that is, no other cards are present), for
example OB-3, or for cards where repetitive data are contained. Cards for
OB-2 are an example of this second type; no new categories of information are
included on successive cards, but previous births in excess of four must be
recorded on an add-on card. For card series where data entered are unique to
a card and more than one card is required to complete the series, a 11 111 is
used to designate the first card, for example OB-5. OB-57, PATH-2 and PED-14
are exceptions to these rules.

The second digit on the card reveals the general subject matter covered by
data on the card. All cards containing information pertaining to obstetrics,
for example, are designated by a "3" in column 2; family histories are
designated by a 11 511 ; pathology with a 11 211 ; pediatrics, with a 11 411 ; and
psychological testing with a "1".
Columns three and four reveal the form number. In the case of forms where
old and new forms having different numbers are included together, the number of
the latest form appears on the master file. This rule does not apply to data
abstracted from several forms by NINCDS staff (ADM forms).
Column 5 of the card contains a revision code indicating which form or
combination of forms was used in arriving at data on a particular card. A
typical card will have one to three revision codes, with a zero indicating the
first version of a form and "1", "2 11 , and "3" indicating later revisions. As a
rule, revision codes used on cards differ from card to card; investigators
should check the definition of codes provided in Volume II to determine the
meaning of revision codes used.
Each woman and child studied in the project received a unique case number
(NINDB case number) composed of nine digits, recorded in columns 6 through 14
of all master file cards. The case number identified the institution, the
mother and the child. The first two digits represented the collaborating
institution (see Table 2). The third digit indicated the type of patient

selection. A ''1" was used for patients selected for the central core study; a
"6 11 indicated that a patient had been transferred from one institution to
another, and a 11 7" indicated that the patient was part of a special study
undertaken by the collaborating institution. The fourth through seventh digits
were used to identify the gravida, while the eighth digit identified the order
of the pregnancy of a given gravida in the project. The ninth digit was used
to identify the gravida or child of the pregnancy; "9" indicated the gravida,
"0" indicated the child of a single birth, "1" indicated the first child of a
multiple birth, "2" indicated the second child of a multiple birth, etc.

Data Item Identification and Naming
The NCPP data base contains over 6700 different data items and blank
filler locations on computer files. We have assigned each of these a unique
identification and a terse, stylized name. Because names were chosen to
facilitate use of this guide, they do not duplicate names used by NINDB during
the active phase of the project. Users should consult appropriate
documentation before using data items from the master, variable or work files
(Volumes II, III and IV).
The data item identifiers consist of 11 characters. At the far left are
four unique numbers that were assigned sequentially. The next character is
always a period and is followed by up to six characters. For data items on
the master file, these characters describe the data collection form from which
a data item was derived; for data items on the variable (VAR) or work (WXX)
files, these characters indicate the appropriate file. If the right side is
less than six characters, periods are inserted as shown in these examples:
850 .. OB-34
3650.PATH-3
5223 .... VAR
6340 ... W-10

an
an
item
item

item
from OB-34; on the master file
from PATH-3; on the master file
on the variable file
on work file 10, Rupture of Membranes
We assigned the numbers sequentially as they appear in Volume V. For the
master file, we followed the order in which the cards would be found within an
NINDB case. All card columns are accounted for by one of our data item
identifications. For the variable and work files, the numbers were assigned
in the order that data items appear within a case.
We categorized each data item according to the person to whom the data
refer, by the time of measurement and/or the time to which the item applies and
by general type or subject area (Table 3). Then we assigned names to the data
items using the following guidelines:
• The name and the three associated categories had to stand alone ­
they must describe the data item out of context.
• The first word in the data item name had to be an important or key
word when all names were listed alphabetically as in Volumes VI and VII.
Thus 11 Cry, abnormal 11 was used rather than 11 abnormal cry 11 because a
Reproduced at the National Archives
II.C.x
researcher is more likely to look for this item under 11 C11 than under
11 11
A in an alphabetic list.
• Secondary key words were preceded with a semicolon11 to facilitate
preparation of the permuted index. For example, abruptio; placenta 11
wi 11 be found under both the 11 A11 and 11 P11 portion of Volume VI.
t Qualifying words are delimited by commas and will not appear as
keywords in Volume VI. Thus 11 abruptio; placenta, degree 11 will not be
found in the 11 011 section.
• If medical terminology or usage has changed since the study was
conducted, modern terms may be included and will be enclosed in
brackets. Thus 11 mongolism; [Down's syndrome] 11 will appear under both
the 11 M11 and 11 011 portions of Volume VI.
• If measurement units are associated with a data item name, they are
enclosed in parentheses and placed at the end of the name as in
11
Birthdate {yr) ...
• The categories {person, time and subject) are appended to the right of
the data item name.
Definitions for each category used in naming data items are given in
Table 4 at the end of this introduction. Additional information is found in
Chapter 4 of Volume I.
Data item names thus assigned are terse and highly stylized; as we have
already indicated, they are not the names used by NINDB during the active phase
of the project. Our aim was to develop standardized names that would stand
alone. These names are intended to facilitate a user's search for data items
potentially useful in a research project. Before an item is used, a researcher
should consult its complete description. For a data item from the master
files, e.g., 850 .. 08-34, the data item should be traced to the appropriate
study form, e.g., OB-34, located in Volume II. A variable file data item,
e.g., 5223 ..•• VAR, is traced to Volume III, where it is defined and its
original source given. A data item from a work file is traced to Volume IV for
its description.
Some data items contained in the indexes may include the notation 11 00 NOT
USE. 11 These items are either inaccurate or an alternative data item is
available that gives better information. Users will find more appropriate
data items by consulting one of the indexes to the data items {Volumes, V, VI
and VI I).

Tables of Data Items:
Column Headings
For each form, two sets of computer generated pages list all data items in
either the master, variable or work files derived from this form. These lists
enable a user to track form items to computerized data items listed in other
volumes of the User's Guide and vice versa. The computer listings have the
following information.

PLACENTAL EXAMINATION-GROSS
(For Form PATH-1, Dated 7-59)
PURPOSE. The purpose of this examination is to
provide precise and detailed information about
the gross appearance of the placenta and how
it may relate to the outcome of the pregnancy
. for both mother and infant. Report the infor­
mation on PATH-I, Placental Examination Gross.
ORDER OF EXAMINATION. For the sake of con­
venience and thoroughness, the order of the
examination is to conform in so far as possible
with the order of items as they appear oo the
form.
EXAMINER'S LACK OF BIAS. In so far as pos­
sible, the examiner should have no kuowledge
of the course or outccme of the pregnancy
until this form has been completed.
WHEN TO USE THIS FORM. This form is to be
used in every case in which the crown-nDDp
length is 16.5 centimeters or more (gestational
age 20 weeks or more), and. in those cases in
which the placenta is intact when the fetus is
less than 16.5 centimeters crown-nDDp.
DESCRIPTION OF ABNORMALITIES. All abnor­
malities are to be described in the space pro­
vided at the bottom of the form. This includes
those abaormalities which are not specifically
mentioned in the form. If the space at the
bottom of the form is not sufficient, additional
pages may be added. Wherever possible, in­
clude the item number with the description of
the abaormality.
METHODS OP PREPARING SECTIONS. At least
three sections ar-e to be prepared: cord,
membrane roll, and placenta. In cases of
twins, a section of the dividing membranes
should also be prepared. In addition, sections
of all significant gross abaormalities are to be
prepared.
SECTION OF DIVIDING MEMBRANE OF TWINS.
In fused placentas the first step after in­
spection and measuring of the length of the
cord, etc., should be to remove a square of
membranes from the area which divides the
In other words, the
two aauu0111c sacs.
dividing membranes are identified and a section
is cut through them. This section of mem­
branes is then rolled by means of forceps and
the roll is placed in fixative. After 24 hows,
it is trimmed so that a jelly-roll-like structure
is obtained for histologic examination.
SECJ'IOH OF UMBILICAL CORD. At the end of
the gross examination of the umbilical· cord,
the ccxd is cut at a point two centimeters
from the fetal surface and a section of the
middle portion of the cord is placed in fixative .
This segment should be approximately three
to four centimeters in length and after proper
fixation, a section should be trimmed from its
center.
PREPARATION OF MEMBRANE ROLL. After
inspection of the membranes, a segment is cut
out measuring approximately ·ten centimeters
in length and five centimeters in width, start­
ing at the point of rupture and proceding to­
wards the margin of the placenta and including
a very small piece of marginal placenta. Care
must be taken that the amnion is not stripped
off in this procedure. This section of mem­
branes is then rolled by means of forceps aud
the roll is placed in fixative. After 24 hours,
it is trimmed so that a jelly-roll-like structure
is obtained for histologic examination.
SECTION OF PUCENTA. After complete section­
ing aud inspection of the cut surfaces of the
placenta, select a representative block of
placental tissue. Such a block is preferably
three to four centimeters wide, spanning the
entire thickness of the placenta aud including
the fetal surface with some large fetal blood
vessels. It must be handled carefully lest it
disrupt in the center. It should be chosen
from the central portions of the placenta, some
three or four centimeters away from the in­
sertion of the cord, and it should be placed in
fixative immediately. Abnormal areas, such
as tumors, intervillous thromboses, and
occasional infarcts, should be sampled as
indicated. It is not deemed advisable to section
all infarcts. However, it is suggested that
cysts aud intervillous thromboses and any
other unusual structures be sampled fcx his­
tologic observation. The choice of fixative
is left to the individual institution.

Item 4, Multiple Births. In cases of multiple birtha,
35 millimeter Kodachrome photographs of the
placenta must be submitted with the prococol.
Each fetus is to be designated A, B, etc.,
with regard to order of birth and a separate
form is to be used for each fetus evea if the
placentas are fused. In cases of fuaed placen•
tas, all entries after Item 13 refer to that
portion of the placenta con t&iniag tbe fetal
circulatory district of the fetus whose desig­
nation appears on the form. If the farm is
being used for a single birth, leave Iteaa S-8
blank.

lte111 8, If Fused Placentas, Is Anast-..ls Pte­
sent. In cases of fused placentas, the safest
way to identify anastomoses is by injectioo
of a colored medium into the placenta. Isolate
areas of JI'Obable anastomoses anddisaectooe
small surface vessel which leads into this
district. Then isolate this vessel, iuert a
cannula with a ball tip, tying a small tie be­
bind this ball tip and inject either air or
}X'eferably a colored dye. White or greea dyes
(e.g., a light green saline solutioo) provide
better contrast than blue or red dyes ud are
mare }X'actical than the use of plastic ia­
jectioo materials. Large anastomoses -y be
identified readily by moving the po.sibly
I iquid blood in this large vessel frae oae
placental district to the other. Check appo­
}X'iate box and describe anast01110ees ia tbe
space provided at the bott9m of the fan~o Ia­
dicate whether anastomoses are lll'ta'y to
anery, vein to vein, or artery to veia. Note
size of anastomoses, etc.
lte111 9, Dl-nslons. The thickness is meuurecl
at the center of the placental tiss. by pierc-
ing it with a knitting needle on which centi­
meter marks have been inscribed.
lte. 10, Shape. Check aP}X'opriate box. If shape
is other than round or oval, describe in Item
61.
lte.a 11, Card. This section refers to the exami­
natioa of the umbilical cord. If abnormalities
are present other than those specified, de­
scribe them in Item 61.
lt.. 12, Length of Cord. Measure and enter the
length of the cord left on the placenta plus
any loose pieces.
The pediatrician will
measure the length of the cord left on the
baby so that a total length may eventually be
obtained.
lte.a 13, Shortest Distance fr. . Card Insertion to
Placental Margin. Reccrd this distance in

PATH-2
Placental Examination - Microscopic
Form PATH-2 provided precise, detailed information about the microscopic
appearance of the placenta and how the placenta might relate to the outcome of
the pregnancy for both mother and infant. The form was implemented into the
study in November 1959; it was not revised. Data from PATH-2 were coded onto
card 1202 of the master file (Table PATH-2.1).

PLACENTAL EXAMINATION-MICROSCOPIC
(For Form PATH-2, Dated 11-59)
PURPOSE. The purpose of this examination is to
provide precise, detailed informatioa about
the microscopic appearance of the placenta
and how it may relate to the outcome of the ·
pregnancy for both mother and infant. Report
the informatioa on PATH-2, Placental Ex­
aminatioa - Microscopic.
ORDER OF EXAMINATION. For the sake of coo­
venience and thoroughness, the order of the
examinatioa is to coaform in so far as pos­
sible with the order of items as they appear
on the form.
EXAMINER'S LACK OF BIAS. Insofar as poa­
silile, the examiner should have no knowledge
of course or outcome of the pregnancy until
this form has been completed.
WHEN TO USE THIS FORM. This form is to be
used in every case in which the crown-rump
length is 16.5 centimeters or more (gestational
age 20 weeks or more), and in those cases in
which the placenta is intact when the fetus
is less than 16.5 centimeters crown-rump.
EXAMINATION OF SECTIONS. During the course
of this examination, at least three sectioaa ­
cord1 membrane roll, and placenta - should
be examined. The methods for the preparation
of these aectioaa are outlined in Pathology
Manual, PHS-3222-1, Placental Examinatioa
-Gross.
DESCRIPTION OF ABNORMALITIES.
All ab­
normalities are to be described in Item 68.
This includes those abnormalities which are
not specifically mentiooed in the form.
Wherever possible, the item number corres­
ponding to the abnormality should be in­
cluded with the descriptioa of the abnormality.
If the space at the bottom of the sheet is not
sufficient, additiooal pages may be added.
MULTIPLE BIRTHS. In cases of multiple births,
a separate form is to be prepared for the
placenta of each fetus.
Item 3, Date. Enter date of examination.
Item 4, Designation of Placenta Described on this
Form. Check the appropriate box. In cases
of multiple births with more than two mem­
bers, check box •other multiple births" and
enter in Item 68 the number of fetuses an~
the designation of the fetus whose placenta
is described in this form.

PATH-3 Autopsy Protocol
Form PATH-3 was used to provide information obtained from autopsies of
deceased infants or children. Implemented into the study in August 1961, the
form was never revised. Data from PATH-3 were punched onto three cards of the
master file (Table PATH-3.1).
