Maintain a list of targeted medical events

For interactive signal configurations, you can maintain a list of targeted medical events (TMEs) for each product. A TME is an adverse event that your organization wants to monitor closely for a particular product. For example, you might add Hepatic failure as a TME for Product A.

Before you begin, consider the following:

  • You must have the Manage Signaling Terms permission to manage TMEs.
  • The Data Configuration for 2D Runs specified for the signal configuration must be present and valid.
  • The Event Variable for 2D Runs and Drug Variable for 2D Runs specified for the signal configuration must exist in the Data Configuration for 2D Runs.
  • You define TMEs at the hierarchy level specified in the Event Variable for 2D Runs field for the signal configuration. For example, if the Event Variable for 2D Runs is (Event) PT, you define TMEs using preferred terms.
  • You cannot add or delete a targeted medical event while a signal configuration refresh is in progress.
  • You must refresh the signal configuration for your changes to take effect.
