What's included

What goes into ongoing signal detection

  • Systematic, ongoing review of processed case data against the methodology and thresholds agreed in the Signal Detection Plan
  • Data mining and literature surveillance to catch emerging trends rather than relying on a once-a-cycle review
  • A defined evaluation and escalation pathway, documented for every signal considered — not just those confirmed
  • Confirmed signals routed into aggregate safety reporting and safety monitoring committees on a set cadence
  • An audit-traceable signal evaluation record defensible under sponsor or agency review
