SurVigilance: An Application for Accessing Global Pharmacovigilance Data

Even though several publicly accessible pharmacovigilance databases are available, extracting data from them is a technically challenging process. Existing tools typically focus on a single database. We present SurVigilance, an open-source tool that streamlines the process of retrieving safety data from seven major pharmacovigilance databases. SurVigilance provides a graphical user interface as well as functions for programmatic access, thus enabling integration into existing research workflows. SurVigilance utilizes a modular architecture to provide access to the heterogeneous sources. By reducing the technical barriers to accessing safety data, SurVigilance aims to facilitate pharmacovigilance research.
