This Good Laboratory Practice training defines deviations and unexpected events, the similarities and differences between deviations and amendments, and will present strategies to minimize the occurrence of unnecessary deviations.
All experimental data generated in a GLP study, including observations of unanticipated responses, are required to be accurately recorded and verified. Proper documentation of deviations and events is crucial to the reconstructability of a study and the quality and compliance of the GLP study report. Documentation of protocol and SOP deviations and unexpected events can be problematic if not handled properly, and can impact the integrity of the study.
This session defines deviations and unexpected events, the similarities and differences between deviations and amendments, and will present strategies to minimize the occurrence of unnecessary deviations. Effective tactics to enhancing proper documentation and handling of deviations are discussed, as well as approaches to reducing the stigma of deviations so as to foster communication between study personnel and study director when deviations and unusual events do occur.
