Types of signaling terms

For interactive signal configurations, you can manage the following types of signaling terms:

·        Designated medical event (DME)—Adverse events that your organization wants to monitor closely. DMEs are not associated with a particular product. For more information, see Add a designated medical event.

·        Custom term—User-specified term used as a pseudo-product or pseudo-event value in data mining. For more information, see Add, edit, or delete a custom term.

·        Targeted medical event (TME)—Event associated with a product. For more information see, Add a targeted medical event.

·        Listed event—Event listed on the label of a product. For more information, see Maintain a list of targeted medical events.

You update DMEs and custom terms from the Manage Reference Data menu (Manage Reference Data menu), on the top right. You  update TMEs and Listed events from the Products table.
