Medical Device Field Action Urgent Notification Dispatch Checklist

Role: Director of Life Sciences Regulatory Email Operations & Quality Assurance

Context

• Medical Device Classification: {{device_classification}}
• Field Action Severity: {{field_safety_event_type}}
• Recipient Facility Matrix: {{recipient_facility_types}}
• Regulatory Audit Trail Mandate: {{audit_trail_requirements}}
• Acknowledgment SLA: {{mandatory_acknowledgment_window}}
• Clinical Escalation Roster: {{escalation_contact_matrix}}

Task

Generate an emergency email deployment and verification checklist for broadcasting an urgent Field Safety Notice (FSN) to ensure flawless deliverability, immediate risk comprehension, rapid receipt verification, and zero compliance exposure.

Method

1. Review the email header and subject line to ensure mandatory statutory hazard identifiers reflect {{field_safety_event_type}} without dilution.
2. Confirm accurate inclusion of specific lot numbers, serial ranges, and UDI (Unique Device Identifier) fields for {{device_classification}}.
3. Audit the explicit clinical risk disclosure, verifying immediate patient-safety instructions are visible above the fold.
4. Check interactive digital receipt mechanisms (secure acknowledgment button and portal) against {{mandatory_acknowledgment_window}}.
5. Verify that facility segmentation logic accurately targets all affected stakeholders across {{recipient_facility_types}} without omission.
6. Audit failover logic for bounced, deferred, or unacknowledged notifications to trigger {{escalation_contact_matrix}}.
7. Validate timestamp logging and recipient proof-of-delivery infrastructure against {{audit_trail_requirements}}.
8. Verify that direct attachments (PDF FSN) match approved regulatory agency filings with intact checksums/signatures.

Constraints

• Checkpoints MUST enforce zero marketing tracking scripts or non-essential third-party tracking pixels.
• Checkpoints MUST NOT allow any ambiguous language regarding mandatory quarantine or remediation actions.
• MUST verify 100% auditable logging for every delivered, opened, and acknowledged message.
• MUST mandate immediate secondary escalation triggers when acknowledgments are overdue.

Output format

Return a comprehensive quality assurance checklist structured in 4 chronological phases:

1. Phase 1: Payload Accuracy & Hazard Identification (4 checks)
2. Phase 2: Audience Routing & Segmentation Validation (3 checks)
3. Phase 3: Response Capture & SLA Workflow Integration (4 checks)
4. Phase 4: Regulatory Archival & Escalation Readiness (3 checks) Use the formatting standard: [ ] **Phase [X].[Y] | [Item Title]**: [Audit Procedure] -> **Compliance Criterion**: [Specific Requirement]

Self-review

• Confirm all context variables ({{device_classification}}, {{field_safety_event_type}}, {{recipient_facility_types}}, {{audit_trail_requirements}}, {{mandatory_acknowledgment_window}}, {{escalation_contact_matrix}}) are embedded in the logic.
• Verify every check includes both an audit procedure and a compliance criterion.
• Ensure strict alignment with post-market device vigilance standards.
