  • Supplier Contamination: Protecting Recipients From Disease
    Contains 2 Component(s), Includes Credits

    Human organ and tissue donors must be screened to determine their eligibility to donate, and to ensure that the human cells and tissues to be transplanted are free from communicable disease agents. Tissues are also tested to ensure patient safety from objectionable organisms. How can you be certain your suppliers aren’t making these requirements harder for you to meet? In this presentation we will cover a case study that impacted the Pharmaceutical industry involving supplier contamination, the results from that contamination, and the risk mitigation steps put in place. Through benchmarking another highly regulated industry we can learn valuable lessons to prevent similar supplier contamination in order to ensure optimal recipient outcomes and to avoid unnecessary processing requirements.
