Trends and Statistics

If incident case studies are periodically communicated to executives, they can help to reenforce the importance of doing things correctly. This typically translates into critical tasks that must he performed hy skilled workers and accoimtahility for those activities at an executive stewardship level. Such a commitment will carry over into incident investigation follow-up. 

Case studies provide a reality check for demonstrating where an ineffective operation could end up. The condensed case studies helow provide examples of physical failures, incident mechanics, wide-ranging consequences, and management system failures. These are intended primarily 

Some of the cases below reflect situations that might be encountered in a typical process plant. Others are less obvious and may only appear remotely connected to an operating plant. The Concorde crash and the Challenger disaster are examples of this latter category. These clearly demonstrate loss of containment scenarios that could be encountered in any operating environment.

Two important aspects are internal audits and product quality review. Internal audits are implemented to regularly monitor the compliance activities in drug manufacture and to ensure rectification to these activities if deviations occur. Trending and statistical analysis of data provide early warning of impending problems. Product quality review checks the relevance and adequacy of the manufacturing activities. It provides input to update and improve the quality system. 

Plunkett Research Online now has all of the latest industry data, trends and statistics for all industries available for a free trial. 

Provide a short summary of these data, noting clinically significant trends and statistically significant changes. The summary should compare the active control drug with placebo and should show the numbers of patients receiving each test. Also identify and evaluate those patients who leave a trial because of clinical laboratory abnormalities.
