This session will highlight various roles observational studies play in regulatory decision making. It will discuss a Bayesian approach to sensitivity analysis for unmeasured confounding. It will also give a very high-level overview of mini-Sentinel and what it can bring. The focus will be on challenges in using these kinds of systems for prospective safety surveillance. Case examples for the Bayesian approach and for challenges of mini-Sentinel will be presented.
