  I recently stumbled upon the picture on the right on LinkedIn and it reminded me of a conversation that I had with my mother, who is an architect by trade. She told me that many roads came to be what they are today, not by well-thought-out plans, but rather by people and animals getting […]

  When it comes to periodic reporting, we feel that the generation and tracking of periodic reports in Oracle’s Argus Safety is far easier than in other safety and pharmacovigilance systems. In the system, periodic reports are all created and generated from a central screen within the application.   The four basic kinds of periodic […]

  In a post from earlier this year, Medical Coding In Argus Safety, Perficient’s Dr. Rodney Lemery discussed how Oracle’s safety and pharmacovigilance (PV) system integrates very nicely with MedDRA and WHO Drug. Since much of the work our safety and PV team does revolves around Argus Safety, we’re also heavily involved with the installation […]

  I just read “Failing To Report Severe Drug Side Effects: A National Embarrassment,” written by Forbes contributor Luke Timmerman. He talks about his recent personal experience with our health system and what he believes is poor adherence to the reporting of adverse events. Why should patients or their loved ones have to demand that […]

  Now that May is here, I thought it would be neat to look back at what our readers found most interesting last month. Below are the top five blog posts Perficient’s life sciences practice wrote in April – they’re ranked in order of popularity, with number one being the most viewed piece. 

  In Argus Safety, all of the parameters for configuring the worldwide regulatory reporting rules are clearly identified on a single administration screen. You have the capability of selecting various case or event-level attributes, as well as using very advanced conditions, to focus the automated triggering of these report rules in various circumstances. 

  Most of us have searched for information about pharmaceuticals on the web and, more often than not, wound up on a website that provided general information about the product. Such sites are usually sufficient enough to answer basic questions. But, what if there were a site that offered more? What if there were a […]

  One of the things we hear most is how simple Oracle Argus Safety is to navigate. In the image (click it to enlarge) above, you’ll notice a familiar folder structure in the upper part of the Regulatory Reports screen – it looks just like Windows Explorer and works similarly. It allows you to drill […]

  Much like the Coding Review screen, the Medical Review screen is functionality in Oracle’s Argus Safety that displays the relevant case in a single central window and allows a medical reviewer to see all of the key data points that he or she would use when assessing the case. 

Now that February is here, I thought it would be neat to look back at what our readers found most interesting last month. Below are the top five blog posts Perficient’s life sciences practice wrote in January – they’re ranked in order of popularity, with number one being the most viewed piece. 6 Trends In Life Sciences […]

  Throughout 2015, we should continue to see life sciences companies investing in technology to reduce drug and device development costs and time, and more importantly, to improve the safety and efficacy of their products. It’s no longer a choice, but rather a matter of time: life sciences companies need to upgrade their IT solutions […]

Quit with the boring pharma TV ads. I can’t remember the last time I saw one – well – that I remembered. Until now, out of the red corner…Valeant. Just imagine the jubilation Valeant is feeling right now. Alright, I’ll stop with the wordplay – at least until the middle and maybe the very end! […]
