Rubella is a self-limited febrile rash illness with few complications. Although rubella itself is a disease often causing only mild illness to those infected, a significant disease burden is associated with rubella virus infection during the first trimester of pregnancy. Known as congenital rubella syndrome (CRS) the disease manifests itself as a host of syndromes affecting babies born to mothers who were infected with rubella during pregnancy. The earlier the mother is infected during pregnancy the worse the damage is to the child.

This Process Validation training will look at the underlying statistical concepts to perform an effective process validation. The webinar examine elements of the FDA regulations for process validation (21 CFR §820.75) as well as the corresponding requirements in ISO 13485.

Based on Warning Letters, the FDA expects manufacturers to validate processes when the output check uses sampling instead of 100% inspection. The presentation looks at these aspects of process validation using the unifying approach of a statistical model. Rather than a…

Therefore, managing what individuals do everyday, tracking the results that come from their contributions, and including how they work with others are all necessary to ensure performance success. Make sure that…
