How Technology Empowers Your Pharmacovigilance Process
Local literature review of non-indexed medical source is always a challenge for pharmacovigilance departments. Various local recommendations, different sources and huge amount of published information to be screened requires a lot of resources. Proper literature monitoring is treated as a critical safety process. In a situation of continuous increasing of regulatory auditing activities pharmaceutical companies need to pay attention to their processes at local markets and ensure own or vendors’ activities compliance.
World known literature databases such as PubMed offer specific search instruments, like customizing search parameters, email notifications in case of updates etc. In contrary, the local literature monitoring is still often done only by manual human reading of a journal from cover to cover. Though there is a huge potential of automation. Different parties try to develop an instrument which will advance pharmacovigilance process in place. And there definitely is a progress of such efforts.
We’ll share our experience of regular use of DrugCard pharmacovigilance platform for local literature monitoring and present cases of safety information findings. Real cases, insights and pitfalls of local medical literature monitoring provided from the first person.
