Objectives

This Live Online Training will familiarize you with existing regulatory requirements for blood, blood products, plasma and blood products and will give you an overview of the latest changes. In addition, representatives from authorities, establishments, industry and consultants will show you which requirements are placed on you and your quality management system during an audit or inspection and how you should prepare and follow- up an audit or inspection.

Background

As a manufacturer or supplier of medicinal products or their starting materials, blood and plasma donation establishments as well as stem cell facilities are subject to drug approval and/or drug supervision. This means that the current rules and regulations regarding the collection, storage, transportation and processing of blood and plasma products should be familiar. In addition to the current legislation some national requirements (e.g. the German Guideline on haemotherapy), the Guideline on Plasma-derived Medicinal Products, or the guidelines of the medical associations in the member states should be taken into account. Especially for establishments and responsible persons located in the medical field, the pharmaceutical legal requirements and documentation requirements often present a new challenge.

Target Group

This Live Online Training is aimed at employees from blood and plasma suppliers, such as blood donor establishments, transfusion centres, fractionators etc. It is aimed at the same way to blood and plasma processing companies such as pharmaceutical manufacturer. Especially employees in manufacturing, quality assurance, quality control and analytics will benefit from this Course.
