EUROPEAN UNION GOOD PHARMCOVIGILANCE PRACTICE (RISK MANAGEMENT PLAN) Authors: Kamaraj R* And Praveen TS
ABSTRACT
"Materials vigilance" protects patients from medical device malfunctions. Traceability tracks
device life. Each state's medical device safety is its responsibility. Medical device risk
classification. EU medical device markets need CE markings. "Notified body" issues 5-year
certifications. Market and incidents are monitored. Rules boost efficiency and transparency.
Medical device incident reporting increases safety. Local reporters must report incidents to
ANSM. ANSM assesses the safety, efficacy, and quality of healthcare products nationally,
centralises vigilance reports, and makes decisions. Medical device law is unified by European
and global materials vigilance. Traceability aids medical device recalls. Traceability is the
responsibility of each centre, not the manufacturer. CE labels are safe. IUDIs, standardised
label data, barcodes, and terminology improve traceability. Create international databases
In this article Risk Management Process is explained and used when obtaining preliminary
marketing authorization or making major changes to an existing product registration in the
EU. In March 2017, the EU accepted a revised version of its Good Pharmacovigilance
Practices (GVP) Guideline, Module V Risk Management Systems, which gives a framework
for constructing more specified, achievable, and risk-proportionate RMPs. Using Module V
of the GVP and its interpretation to analyse RMP risks.
