Definition

event in which a departure occurs from an applicable plan, requirement specification, or specified range, target or limit

Explanatory Notes

Deviation events may be detected through monitoring, for example, an excursion of a monitored variable beyond an alert, action, control, or specification boundary where the applicable procedure requires the excursion to be handled as a deviation, or through review of records, for example, procedural departures, documentation errors, use of an unintended material lot, or missed sampling or hold-time requirements. In many quality management settings, deviation events are classified based on their actual or potential impact on product safety, identity, strength, purity, and quality, together with applicable biologics-specific considerations such as potency.

Examples

  • Occurrence during buffer preparation in which the measured pH exceeded the applicable action limit; execution of media preparation using a raw-material lot other than the one specified; omission of a required in-process sample during batch execution; continuation of processing beyond the specified hold time for a process intermediate.
