Job Definition The scope of work is to monitor the SDRs (signals of disproportionate reporting) over time The monitoring reports are sent every month There are about 20 products to be monitored The report format provided: pdf – files Piotr Nowicki, MD

PDF Report Sample - Header Piotr Nowicki, MD

PDF Report Sample – Marked SDRs Piotr Nowicki, MD

Challenges The pdf reports provided have to be reviewed manually The numbers of drug-events combinations is relatively high - approx a month ; number of SDRs approx (~5%) The drug – event combinations are provided cumulatively Piotr Nowicki, MD

Challenges Cont. Emerging Issues: – How to get more information - case details? – How to see trends ? – How to track the data (i.e. see the differences over time for the drug-events pairs of interest) ? – How to document the decisions taken ? Piotr Nowicki, MD

Further Questions/Solution Proposal Outstanding questions – How to monitor the data for each pdf report provided every month? – partially solved with EVDAS – How to document the decisions taken and track them over time? Piotr Nowicki, MD

Monitoring Charts Piotr Nowicki, MD

Monitoring Charts with assessment fields Piotr Nowicki, MD

Outlook / Further development Add case details – import of cases needed Additional charts: – Monitor the changes in the „process” Common sense approach definition of rules – Effective use of available Product data: – SPC and Mapping Algorithms (further issues to be solved e.g. coding) Piotr Nowicki, MD

Process in Control? Piotr Nowicki, MD

Common sense approach - Rules Piotr Nowicki, MD

Points to Consider Support from EVDAS? Reports in text file format e.g. (CSV) Files with case list but with different/additional columns? Full case details in another format ? Better performance to be expected? Other solutions? Piotr Nowicki, MD
