Review item destruction batch operation history at site

Item destruction refers to the process of disposing of or destroying an investigational product or other unused medication when they are no longer needed, damaged, or for another reason. It is an important step in ensuring the proper management and disposal of these items to maintain compliance with regulatory requirements, participant safety, and confidentiality.

In IWRS, the sites involved in your trial for which the item destruction is enabled can dispose of items themselves by creating destruction batches. Then, there are various activities to be done—the batch must be approved for destruction, or the request might be canceled. And the approved batch can also be revoked if there is a reason for that.

Thus, it becomes necessary to have a complete operation history for each item destruction batch to help users recreate the course of events happening with each of them at the site.

To review the item destruction batch operation history at a site
