Complaint Handling Best Practices – Compliance with FDA and ISO Regulations

This session will include the requirements for defining, documenting, and implementing a complaint-handling system, including the requirements for complaint review, investigation and corrective action, as well as the ISO-specific implications. Also, discussed will be the best way to document customer feedback, what constitutes a complaint and what do with “non-complaint” feedback. Also contained will be a suggested method of including complaint trending into your firm’s CAPA program. Additionally, the application of risk management to a complaint handling system will be reviewed and a specific risk management system explained.

Why You Should Attend:

This session’s streamlined review of the regulations enables detailed focus on recommended contents of complaint records and root cause investigations. Methods for trending of complaints are included, as well as forms on which to document risk.

Most complaints include terminology that is unlikely to withstand an FDA or ISO audit, such as “product didn’t work,” “isolated occurrence” and “low risk.” Further, from a business perspective, how do you let your customers know that you received their complaint when you know that their next question may be the dreaded “What did you find out?” A compliant quality system has, as one of its supports, a robust complaint system that is both compliant and business-savvy. This webinar will address all of these issues and more.
