Background
Since the often cited Barr ruling (Wolin Judgement) of February 1993 pharmaceutical companies all around the world have implemented procedures and strategies on how to deal with results that do not comply with their predetermined specifications. Although 27(!) years have passed since that judgement and although in the meantime FDA and MHRA have published guidances about OOSs, the investigation of OOS results continues to be a hot topic in FDA inspections. The incorrect handling and investigation of OOS results is still frequently cited in Warning Letters.
The ECA Working Group on Analytical Quality Control decided to address these aspects and developed a harmonised guideline SOP on managing analytical deviations within the laboratory including OOS, OOE and OOT results. It encourages the application of a consistent and scientifically sound approach to trend analysis as part of a QMS. The current Version 2 is available for all ECA members on the ECA members area.
Target Group
This Live Online Training is recommended for all levels of technical staff and managerial personnel dealing with out-of-specification results, including analytical laboratories, contract laboratories, and Quality Assurance/Quality Control personnel.
