Complaint handling is essentially the beginning of the process if not one crucial aspect of the process of collecting data concerning the product that is in the marketplace. It is your first “tip-off” that something might not be going as intended. Complaints are ignored at your peril and ignoring them results in a significant risk to the organization and to the patients that use your products.
Complaint handling is only the start of a critical process to collect critical product information from the marketplace for either medical devices or drugs that ultimately ensure the safety of our patients, and assures the efficacy, purity, and safety of our drugs, and the effectiveness, reliability, and safety of our medical devices.

Why Should You Attend
Clearly, complaint handling is one link on the postmarket surveillance chain. There is a clear interrelationship between complaint handling, CAPA, change control, adverse event reporting and recalls. Because this interrelationship covers the entire subject we will touch upon those throughout the webinar. We will touch upon reportable events and why it is important to be able to identify them both in terms of definition and when they manifest as reportable. We will look at the complaint handling life-cycle and we will complete the webinar by reviewing the recall process and its classifications and discussing the specific challenges that face manufacturers today relative to this subject.
