Workshop on pharmacovigilance and vigiflow organized by KL University

27 February, 2023

Pharmacovigilance is the science and activities relating to the detection, assessment, understanding and prevention of adverse effects or any other medicine/vaccine related problem.VigiFlow is a web-based pharmacovigilance management system with streamlined easy-to-follow workflows that uses integrated standardised medical terminologies such as WHODrug Global and MedDRA. Workflow support aligned to your pharmacovigilance processes helps you optimise collection, triage and assessment of cases. Allocate workloads by delegating cases to pharmacovigilance units in your network. Built-in WHODrug Global and MedDRA coding support. All medicines and vaccines undergo rigorous testing for safety and efficacy through clinical trials before they are authorized for use. However, the clinical trial process involves studying these products in a relatively small number of selected individuals for a short period of time. Certain side effects may only emerge once these products have been used by a heterogenous population, including people with other concurrent diseases, and over a long period of time.
