Export an overview

The overview can be exported for the summary of the current search and its associated results.

To export the overview:

1. Perform the search.

2. Apply any relevant filters.

3. Select the export option.

4. Click Overview

5. Open or save the file.

The export captures the overview of the current search as it exists at the time of export.

When should I use the overview?

Search overview exports are useful when you want to:

• Document a search strategy

• Share search results with colleagues

• Record the scope of an analysis

• Support investigation documentation

Because the export reflects the current filters and settings, it can help reproduce a previous analysis.

The Excel file contains the following sheets: Search criteria, Patient age, Patient sex, Countries, Drug, Reaction, Co-reported active ingredients, Reported preferred terms, Serious, Seriousness criteria, Fatal, Reporter qualification and VigiBase initial date.
