In the event of an internal or external (e.g., FDA) inspection, all CAPA files should be easily accessible and readily retrievable. In this webinar instructor will explain what are essential elements of CAPA system to meet current regulatory requirement and how to achieve it.
The basic CAPA procedure should clearly define the fundamental elements for developing CAPA files which address significant quality system non-conformances (e.g., safety and product quality issues), including: a CAPA project summary, executive summary, chronology of events, objective evidence, immediate actions, root cause analysis methods, implementation of corrective and preventive actions, verification of corrective and preventive actions, effectiveness monitoring, CAPA file checklist and closure. The elements of the CAPA system must meet current regulatory requirements. The supporting file should follow a uniform format, including a numbering system, and contain appropriate content generally applicable to all CAPAs. CAPA files may be maintained as electronic or hard copy with all versions retained until the file is reviewed, completed (signed off) and officially closed. CAPA files should be maintained by the CAPA owner while in progress, and then stored for future reference in a permanent filing system.
A designated individual in the company should maintain overall responsibility for CAPA files, and know the status and location of each CAPA file. The current status of CAPAs should be reported at Management Review. CAPA files should be updated as new information becomes available; all information should be shown in the CAPA chronology. In the event of an internal or external (e.g., FDA) inspection, all CAPA files should be easily accessible and readily retrievable.
