This adverse event reporting Webinar/training will discuss the clinical trial regulations requirements with respect to adverse event and explain how to assess and report AEs and SAEs.
Why Should You Attend:
The principal objective in a new drug development program is to assess the benefit / risk ratio. Therefore risk information must be collected, documented and reported accurately. The single most important function of the Principal Investigator and the study conduct team is the awareness, assessment, and management of Adverse Events occurring during the conduct of clinical research with drugs or devices utilizing human subjects. To obtain 'commonality' in reporting investigative sites require familiarity with one of the Adverse Event Terminology systems such as MedDRA. As codified in 21 CFR 312.64(b), an investigator shall promptly report to the sponsor any adverse event that may reasonably be regarded as caused by, or probably caused by, the drug. Determining the relationship between the study drug and an AE requires a practiced power of observation & great care (good medical judgment).
Attend this Webinar to know how and when adverse events to be reported along with the common mistakes to avoid in AE/SAE reporting. Understand the role of data safety monitoring in Protecting Human Volunteers. Also recording techniques of Adverse Events and how to assess causality - the algorithm will be explained.
Areas Covered in the seminar:
- The CFR definitions of Adverse Events, Serious Adverse Events, Unanticipated Adverse Device Effects and many more.
- How to know what an Adverse Event is and when to report it or them.
- Understanding laboratory AEs and the "Reference Range" concept.
- Type A and Type B Adverse Reactions.
- Common Mistakes in AE / SAE Reporting.
- Reporting of Adverse Events - when and to whom and the use of Adverse Event.
- Terminology systems.
- The Role of Data safety Monitoring in Protecting Human Volunteers.
- How to record Adverse Events and assess causality - the algorithm.
Who will benefit:
This webinar will provide invaluable assistance to investigators and their staff in the regulatory / legal responsibilities and also the ethical considerations in pharmaceutical product (Drug or device) research involving human subjects. Those benefiting the most would be:
- Principal Investigators / Sub-investigators.
- Clinical Research Scientists (PKs, Biostatisticians).
- Safety Nurses.
- Clinical Research Associates (CRAs) and Coordinators (CRCs).
- QA / QC auditors and staff.
- Clinical Research Data managers
