Common EudraVigilance Inspection Findings: Professional Knowledge Assessment

Test your understanding of the concepts covered by EudraVigilance Inspection Findings and Failure Modes.

Question 1 of 10Pass mark: 80%

Question 1 of 10 What does a signal-management inspection review primarily seek to establish?

That every statistical signal automatically results in a regulatory variation That EVDAS, literature and internal signal outputs are reviewed at defined intervals, assessed and escalated when appropriate That case processors personally approve all signal decisions That only confirmed causal relationships are documented

Question 2 of 10 Which KPI most directly measures whether serious ICSRs are being submitted within regulatory timelines?

Reconciliation completion rate On-time submission rate for serious ICSRs Access review completion rate CAPA effectiveness rate

Question 3 of 10 Which feature distinguishes an effective CAPA from a superficial corrective action?

It closes immediately without verifying implementation It identifies a plausible root cause, assigns an owner and due date, defines measurable actions and includes an effectiveness check It focuses only on retraining, regardless of the underlying process failure It documents the issue but does not establish a target or success measure

Question 4 of 10 Which evidence most directly demonstrates traceability for an individual ICSR?

A current organisational chart A product sales report Linked source documents, database audit-trail entries, EV message identifiers and submission timestamps A list of all products marketed by the MAH

Question 5 of 10 A company performs monthly outbound reconciliation but repeatedly discovers unresolved discrepancies several months old. What is the strongest professional interpretation?

The process is adequate because reconciliation occurs monthly The discrepancies are acceptable if they do not involve fatal cases The process may exist formally but is not operating effectively because discrepancy resolution and escalation are inadequate The issue is solely an access-management problem

Question 6 of 10 Which combination most effectively demonstrates active vendor governance?

A signed contract only Vendor invoices and a list of vendor employees Defined responsibilities, training evidence, SLA metrics, oversight reviews, escalation records and audits where appropriate A statement from the vendor that no problems have occurred

Question 7 of 10 How should reconciliation frequency generally be determined?

Use the same frequency for every product and activity regardless of risk Perform it only when an inspection is announced Use a documented, risk-based schedule, with increased frequency for high-volume products or recurring issues Perform outbound reconciliation daily and never reconcile inbound downloads

Question 8 of 10 Why should KPI dashboards include trend lines and documented action plans for red indicators?

To make the dashboard visually complex To show whether performance is changing over time and connect a breach to an active management response To replace source records during case inspection To ensure that all indicators remain green

Question 9 of 10 Which statement best describes the relationship between a checklist and a living EudraVigilance governance system?

Completing the checklist eliminates the need for operational monitoring The checklist identifies expected evidence, but ongoing metrics, reviews, escalations and effectiveness checks demonstrate that controls operate in practice The checklist is useful only for vendors A checklist is sufficient even when records are unavailable

Question 10 of 10 Which access-control situation represents the clearest inspection concern?

Access roles are documented and reviewed with approvals A terminated user's EV access remains active because removal depends on the next annual review A role change is recorded and permissions are adjusted promptly Individual user accounts have defined roles and audit trails
