Summary

This list contains all of our Corrective and Preventive Actions (CAPAs).

List of CAPAs

  • “Adverse Implications”: Verifying that the corrective / preventive action does not adversely affect the ability to meet applicable regulatory requirements or the safety and performance of the medical device.
  • “Verification”: Documenting proof of implementation of actions taken.
  • “Effectiveness”: Review of the effectiveness of corrective / preventive actions taken.
  • “Root Cause”: Analyzing the underlying cause that led to the event. Different methodologies can be used, e.g. 5 Why’s (asking 5 times Why? in a row) or Ishakawa/Fishbone Diagram (identifying cause categories and sub-causes in a diagram).
