Quality Assurance

Quality assurance (QA) plays an important role in the data integrity of clinical research. Good clinical practice defines quality assurance as the systematic and independent examination of all trial-related activities and documents. Audits determine whether the evaluated activities were appropriately conducted and data generated, recorded, analyzed, and accurately reported according to protocol, standard operating procedures (SOPs), and good clinical practices (GCPs).
