Overview

Module 5 of the Joint DIA/MEB "Excellence in Pharmacoviglance" virtual live training course covers Signal Management and Detection in the EU.

New safety signals may emerge at any time following product launch and must be evaluated for relative risk, medical importance, and likelihood of occurrence. Signal Management is, therefore, one of the crucial “routine” Pharmacovigilance activities.

Approaches to Signal Management using qualitative and quantitative methods will be illustrated in a workshop with examples as well as general considerations on signal management in the EEA.

Signal Management in the EU – Industry Perspective
