Job Definition

• The scope of work is to monitor the SDRs (signals of disproportionate reporting) over time

• The monitoring reports are sent every month

• There are about 20 products to be monitored

• The report format provided: pdf – files

Challenges

• The pdf reports provided have to be reviewed manually

• The numbers of drug-events combinations is relatively high - approx. 20000 a month ; number of SDRs approx. 1000 (~5%)

• The drug – event combinations are provided cumulatively

Piotr Nowicki, MD pnow@pragmalog.com 7

Challenges Cont.

• Emerging Issues:

– How to get more information - case details?

– How to see trends ?

– How to track the data (i.e. see the differences over time for the drug-events pairs of interest) ?

– How to document the decisions taken ?

Performing Data Analysis with EVDAS

• Variety of Online Reports

• SDR over time charts

• Drill down possibilities (from SDR to Case level)

Further Questions/Solution Proposal

• Outstanding questions

– How to monitor the data for each pdf report provided every month? – partially solved with EVDAS

– How to document the decisions taken and track them over time?

Outlook / Further development

• Add case details – import of cases needed• Additional charts:

– Monitor the changes in the „process”• Common sense approach definition of rules

– Effective use of available Product data:– SPC and Mapping Algorithms (further issues to be

solved e.g. coding)

Common sense approach - Rules

Points to Consider

• Support from EVDAS?• Reports in text file format e.g. (CSV)• Files with case list but with different/additional columns?• Full case details in another format ?• Better performance to be expected?

•Other solutions?
