    SUSAR Reporting for blinded studies

    Would you be able to clarify the mechanism for reporting for blinded studies? My understanding is that before reporting a SUSAR to the MHRA, it will have to be unblinded by the sponsor, questions arising from this are:
    - Who should remain blinded at the sponsor site (eg study co-ordinator, monitor, trial statistician, data manager)?
    - If the study co-ordinator is to remain blinded is it advisable to arrange for an independent co-ordinator to complete SUSAR reporting?
    - If the trial statistician is to remain blinded, I presume he shouldn't be attending the closed meetings for the DMC?
    - Should the DMC members have access to unblinded data for all patients recruited or only for SUSARs?
    - How should SUSARs be reported to investigators at sites? What information should the line listings contain for a blinded study so as not to unblind all the investigators?

    Many thanks
