    Has anyone gone through or experienced a FDA Inspection/Survey? How did you showcase Cayuse HE to the inspector, narrowed which studies were FDA studies, etc? Did you download everything on a flashdrive drive for them? Provided them a Cayuse account?

    Having asked my colleagues, the recommendations center around giving the auditor specifically what they ask for via printed materials or PDFs on a flash drive, rather than giving blanket access.  This keeps the focus solely on the requested information.  If you're using flags, flagged FDA studies can be identified via reporting.

    Can you explain how flags work? I would love to implement those, but have never seen them in Cayuse HE.

    Hi, Daniel!

    For every HE form submitted for review, we use Flags to note important details about the project. For example, is it federally-funded? If so, are we the IRB of Record? Does the research include children or other defined "vulnerable" populations where additional regulations may be apply.  Flags have also been helpful to call out any projects that may be on "HOLD".  We are a SBER-only institution so identifying if research is taking place in schools, whether there's a "Waiver of Consent" and the level of risk i.e., Minimal or Greater than Minimal Risk.  Finally, we do research abroad so flagging a project as "International" helps to quickly realize when GDPR or other harmonization is required.  While some flags may never apply to our specific research, they are useful!

    Cheers,

    Dawn

    Hi Daniel,

    Adding on to Dawn's comments just to let you know where Flags are and how to use them:

    In reports, you can choose Flags to add them in.

    Hi Matty,  

    Can you repost the link for flags? It seems to be broken.  Thanks!

    When printing materials or saving as a PDF, is there a way to print submissions with the comments? As FDA will be needing to review correspondences.
