signal detection and risk management

Signal detection and risk management are crucial components of pharmacovigilance, ensuring drug safety and minimizing adverse effects. Signal detection involves identifying potential safety concerns from various data sources, including clinical trials, post-marketing surveillance, and adverse event reports. Once a signal is detected, risk management strategies are implemented to assess, mitigate, and communicate potential risks. This process helps regulatory authorities and pharmaceutical companies enhance drug safety, protect public health, and ensure regulatory compliance through continuous monitoring and proactive measures.
