Process Control Charts – Harness the Power of Trending
The new Shield Analysis feature of EagleTrax provides a comprehensive and retrospective review of personnel and environmental monitoring data as well as critical quality attributes of the compounded preparation, enabling users to analyze trends over time. By examining data points collectively, Shield Analysis can assist in interpreting the overall state of microbial and product quality control. The process control charts that are generated through Shield Analysis may serve various purposes, including but not limited to the proactive identification of adverse trends, review of data through graphical representation, monitoring of microbial flora and evaluation of seasonal trends, evaluation of the cleaning and disinfection program, satisfy regulatory requirements for trending and annual product review, and identification of problem areas.
