Episode 3 / 12

Monitoring and safety: every finding followed to the end

From a scheduled monitoring visit to a reviewed report, adverse events checked as you save, and deviations that alert, escalate and link to quality.

About this episode

Your visit

  • A monitor's week is site visits, reports, and findings that have to be followed to the end.
  • In MAESTRO, Site Monitoring starts with a scheduled visit: the site, the type, the dates, and the monitor.
  • The monitor is notified, in the app and by email, and finds the visit under My Visits.

Report

  • After the visit, create the report: six sections, saved as a draft.
  • Each finding gets a severity and a category. Add an owner and a due date to follow it up.
  • Submit it for review. The reviewer approves it, or requests revisions, with mandatory notes.
  • Every hand-off sends a notification, and the report exports as a branded PDF.

Safety

  • For safety, report an adverse event with its onset date, severity and relatedness, and flag it when it is serious.
  • MAESTRO checks the dates as you save: no onset in the future, no resolution before onset.
  • Switch on timeliness tracking, and serious-event reporting is measured from the date you first became aware, as a risk indicator.

Deviations

  • A visit completed nine days late files its own deviation, with the reason written by the system.
  • Major and critical deviations send an alert as soon as they are filed.
  • A reviewer approves, rejects, or escalates. And if the visit date is corrected, the deviation is withdrawn, not deleted.

Quality

  • When a deviation needs a quality decision, confirm it as a quality event: a draft in Quality Management, linked both ways.
  • A monitoring finding can be raised the same way. Nothing becomes a CAPA on its own.

Monitoring and safety in MAESTRO: every finding, and every event, followed to the end.
