Document Control Number: DQ-OSM-001
Version: 1.0
Effective Date: [Insert Date]
Review Date: [Insert Date]
Objective
This Design Qualification (DQ) Protocol aims to ensure that the Osmometer used for routine osmolality testing in parenteral NDDS meets the specified requirements for accuracy and data integrity.
Scope
This protocol applies to the Osmometer utilized in the Quality Control (QC) department for the analysis of parenteral NDDS products.
Responsibilities
The Quality Control Manager is responsible for the implementation of this protocol, while the Validation Team will perform the validation activities outlined herein.
Prerequisites
1. Completed User Requirement Specification (URS) for the Osmometer.
2. Availability of the Osmometer and related documentation.
3. Training of personnel on the operation of the Osmometer.
Equipment Description
The Osmometer is an instrument used to measure the osmolality of parenteral NDDS products. It is critical for ensuring product quality and compliance with regulatory standards.
Test Plan
| Test ID | Procedure | Acceptance Criteria | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| DQ-01 | Calibration of Osmometer | Accurate measurements within ±2 mOsm/kg | Calibration report |
| DQ-02 | Audit Trail Review | Complete and accurate audit trail | Audit trail report |
Detailed Test Cases
Test Case DQ-01: Calibration of Osmometer
1. Prepare calibration standards.
2. Run calibration on the Osmometer.
3. Record results and verify against acceptance criteria.
Test Case DQ-02: Audit Trail Review
1. Access the Osmometer’s software.
2. Generate the audit trail report.
3. Verify completeness and accuracy of the audit trail.
Deviations
Any deviations from the acceptance criteria must be documented and investigated. A deviation report should be generated for further review.
