Why Should You Attend:
This webinar will teach you how to perform a good investigation, how to perform good root cause analysis, develop appropriate actions to eliminate each root cause, and the steps to perform to implement the identified actions.
Topics will include investigational tools such as interviewing (it’s not interrogation), record review (what am I looking for?), inspection, observation, and simulations, various root cause analysis tools – what are they and when do I use them. Topics will also include tools for identifying and implementing actions to eliminate the root cause.
Ultimately, you also need to assemble the documentation to tell your story. This webinar will conclude with some key pointers in telling the story.
Failures in investigations and root cause analysis have been in the top five of compliance observations for over thirty years. Fundamental in these observations are that companies have failed to uncover the true root cause of problems encountered, too often settling on symptoms, such as human error. The net result is that problems continue to recur, products are released to the field with one of more issues and patients are put at risk. Additionally, businesses are adversely impacted due to responding to warning letters, managing complaints and product recalls.
Although there are numerous seminars available, most focus on root cause investigations – investigating to get to root cause. More often than not, this approach does nothing more than reinforce preexisting opinions on what we think is going on, rather than gathering facts of what specifically happened in this instance. This presentation describes the tools and techniques for performing good investigations, identifying true root causes and for implementing corrective actions.
