Risk-based quality management (RBQM)

    In Good Clinical Practice & ethics

    Risk-based quality management is a structured way of identifying what could go wrong in a trial, deciding which of those risks matter most, and putting effort where the risk is highest. Risks are reviewed throughout the trial, not just at the start. It is now an explicit expectation in GCP rather than an optional extra.
