# Protocol amendment impact assessment
## Who this is for
A clinical pharmacologist assessing what a protocol amendment does to the data a running
study has already produced, and to what the study will be able to conclude.
## When to use this skill
- Assessing a proposed amendment before it is implemented.
- Establishing whether data before and after an amendment can be pooled.
- Reviewing an amendment's effect on the analysis plan and the objectives.
- Reconstructing, after the fact, what an implemented amendment changed.
- Preparing the clinical pharmacology position on an amendment for governance.
## When NOT to use this skill
- **Deviation and compliance impact** — use `review-study-conduct-pk`. A deviation is
unplanned; an amendment is deliberate, and the analysis differs.
- **Sampling schedule adequacy** — use `review-pkpd-sampling-schedule`.
- **Analysis plan amendments specifically** — use `review-pk-analysis-plan`, which handles
the unblinding-timing question those carry.
- **Approving the amendment.** Refused.
## Operating modes
| Mode | Question it answers | Minimum inputs |
|---|---|---|
| `POOLABILITY` | Can pre- and post-amendment data be analysed together? | current and proposed protocol |
| `OBJECTIVES` | What can the study still conclude? | protocol, objectives, enrolment status |
| `PROPAGATION` | What else must change? | protocol, analysis plan, other documents |
| `RECONSTRUCT` | What did an implemented amendment actually change? | protocol ver
