Following 10 years' success with Pinpoint™, Pi2's flagship Product Literature Database system, Pi2 has introduced Drug Safety Triager™. Drug Safety Triager™ is already in use by a number of the largest pharma companies in the US and mainland Europe. "We felt that the PIPA conference, with its focussed delegation of PV and MI specialists was the ideal setting to introduce our UK colleagues to the DST application which is attracting so much attention elsewhere," said Mark Drinkwater, co-founder of Pi2. "At the same time, we have a long history with PIPA and wanted to express our appreciation of their work through our Gold level sponsorship of this event."

PIPA remarked, "We were very pleased to see Pi2 so prominently at this year's conference and to hear of their latest innovative developments."

About Pi2 Drug Safety Triager™

The Pi2 Drug Safety Triager™ allows the rapid screening of incoming literature for ICSRs, PSURs, Signals and for related purposes where speed, efficiency, accuracy and compliance are of importance. The Pi2 Drug Safety Triager™ automatically imports references from a client's existing biomedical alerts and surfaces these, together with full articles, for rapid review, annotation and downstream processing to the client's drug safety database. The intuitive interface is easy to use, reduces errors and eliminates many unnecessary steps often associated with literature review. Review is undertaken by the client's in-house team or outsourced to Pi2's team of experienced screeners.

With seamless connectivity to an organisation's existing online host's alerts or web-service and preferred document delivery vendor or virtual library, the Pi2 Drug Safety Triager™ is easily and rapidly implemented with minimum disruption or time-consuming client set-up. Like other Pi2 literature management applications, the Drug Safety Triager™ is hosted and maintained by Pi2, lifting the burden of ownership from the shoulders of departmental managers and supporting IT teams.
