Tags: Equipment Validation, Design Qualification, VHP Generator, Prefilled Syringes, Cartridges

Objective

The objective of this Design Qualification (DQ) Protocol is to verify that the VHP Generator is suitable for its intended use in decontaminating the aseptic environment for the production of prefilled syringes and cartridges.

Scope

This protocol applies to the VHP Generator used in the production area for the direct impact on product quality and safety.

Responsibilities

• Validation Team: Responsible for executing the DQ protocol and documenting results.
• Quality Assurance: Responsible for reviewing and approving the DQ protocol and results.
• Engineering: Responsible for providing technical support and ensuring equipment compliance.

Prerequisites

• Completion of the User Requirements Specification (URS) for the VHP Generator.
• Installation of the VHP Generator in the designated production area.
• Training of personnel on the operation of the VHP Generator.

Equipment Description

The VHP Generator is a system designed to produce vaporized hydrogen peroxide for decontaminating aseptic environments. It is critical for ensuring the sterility of the production area for prefilled syringes and cartridges.

Test Plan

Detailed Test Cases

Test Case T1: Verify Concentration Levels

Procedure: Measure the concentration of vaporized hydrogen peroxide during operation using calibrated equipment.

Acceptance Criteria: Concentration must be within specified limits defined in the URS.

Evidence: Calibration logs and measurement records.

Test Case T2: Check Dwell Time Settings

Procedure: Validate dwell time settings against the specifications outlined in the URS Annex 11.

Acceptance Criteria: Dwell time must meet the predefined requirements.

Evidence: Dwell time logs and configuration settings.

Test Case T3: Audit Trail Log Verification

Procedure: Review the audit trail logs for completeness and accuracy post-operation.

Acceptance Criteria: Audit trail must be complete with no discrepancies.

Evidence: Audit trail report and review documentation.

Deviations

Any deviations from the acceptance criteria must be documented and investigated. A corrective action plan should be developed and approved by the Quality Assurance department.
