Protocol Deviation
Term:
Protocol Deviation
Definition:
Any instance where the trial procedures are not followed as outlined in the protocol.
What is a Protocol Deviation?
A protocol deviation occurs when a clinical trial is conducted in a way that does not fully align with the approved study protocol. These deviations may happen unintentionally and can vary in severity. Some are minor and have little impact on the trial, while others are significant and may affect participant safety or data integrity.
For example, a protocol deviation might involve scheduling a participant’s follow-up visit outside the specified time frame or administering a dose that differs slightly from the protocol.
Why is a Protocol Deviation Important?
Identifying and managing protocol deviations is critical for maintaining the integrity and reliability of a clinical trial. Deviations, if not handled appropriately, can compromise the quality of the data, affect study outcomes, and potentially put participants at risk.
By addressing and documenting deviations, researchers ensure compliance with regulatory standards, uphold ethical principles, and protect the validity of the study’s results.
