Performance Qualification Protocol for Vision System in IV Infusions

Meta Description: This document outlines the Performance Qualification (PQ) protocol for the Vision System used in IV Infusions, focusing on label and code verification.

Tags: Equipment Validation, Performance Qualification, Vision System, IV Infusions, Packaging

Objective

The objective of this Performance Qualification (PQ) protocol is to ensure that the Vision System utilized for label and code verification in IV Infusions meets the specified requirements and performs consistently under defined conditions.

Scope

This protocol applies to the Vision System used in the packaging and inspection of IV Infusions (LVP/SVP – Bags/Bottles). It encompasses the verification of labels and codes, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards.

Responsibilities

The following personnel are responsible for the execution and oversight of this PQ protocol:

• Validation Team: Responsible for protocol execution and documentation.
• Quality Assurance: Responsible for review and approval of protocol and results.
• Operations: Responsible for providing access to the equipment and necessary resources.

Prerequisites

• Completion of Installation Qualification (IQ) and Operational Qualification (OQ).
• Availability of necessary documentation (URS, specifications, and previous validation records).
• Training of personnel on the Vision System operation and validation processes.

Equipment Description

The Vision System is a critical equipment used for verifying labels and codes on IV Infusions. It operates by scanning and analyzing printed codes and labels to ensure accuracy and compliance with established standards.

Test Plan

Detailed Test Cases

Test Case 1: Verify Read Rate

Objective: To ensure the Vision System achieves the required read rate.

Procedure: Conduct a series of tests using known labels and codes. Record the successful reads and calculate the read rate.

Acceptance Criteria: Read rate must be ≥ 98%.

Expected Results: Documented read rate report showing compliance with acceptance criteria.

Test Case 2: Validate Reject Logic

Objective: To confirm the reject logic functions correctly.

Procedure: Introduce intentionally incorrect labels and codes to the system. Verify that the system rejects these inputs.

Acceptance Criteria: The system must reject all incorrect inputs.

Expected Results: Logic validation report confirming proper functionality.

Test Case 3: Audit Trail Review

Objective: To ensure the audit trail is complete and accurate.

Procedure: Review the audit trail generated by the Vision System for completeness and accuracy.

Acceptance Criteria: The audit trail must be complete and show all relevant actions.

Expected Results: Audit trail report demonstrating compliance.

Deviations

Any deviations from the established acceptance criteria must be documented and investigated. A deviation report must be generated, outlining the nature of the deviation, root cause analysis, and corrective actions taken.
