Can you answer these questions right now, without searching through email threads or flipping through binders?

Are all adverse events for every active participant fully documented -- source document, CRF, severity grade, seriousness assessment, causality determination? Have all SAE follow-up reports been submitted on time, or are any overdue? Have all incoming safety communications been reviewed by the investigator, acknowledged to the sponsor, reported to the IRB where required, and filed in the regulatory binder? Has the IB update been processed -- investigator notified, new safety information reviewed against current participants, acknowledgment returned?

If you cannot answer those questions with confidence, you do not have a systems problem. You have a visibility problem. And in safety reporting, what you cannot see is what you will miss.

This lesson teaches you to build the systems that make every safety obligation visible, trackable, and verifiable -- so that the answer to every one of those questions is always within reach.
