保护人类受试者委员会

Informed Consent


政策

Uthealth要求在参与任何研究之前,必须从所有人类受试者中获得知情同意,除非IRB放弃该过程(或其任何部分)。beplay苹果手机能用吗

关键术语

合法授权代表- Under DHHS regulations, the term Legally Authorized Representative means an individual or judicial or other body authorized under applicable law to consent on behalf of a prospective subject to the subject's participation in the procedure(s) involved in the research. UTHealth will follow the Texas Health & Safety Code - Chapter 313. Consent to Medical Treatment Act for research consent matters unless clearly inapplicable because there is no applicable Texas law specific to research consent as described in Item 5 of policy and procedure on Research Involving Cognitively Impaired Persons.


程序

一般考虑 -在将人类主题参与本政策所涵盖的研究之前,研究人员应获得该主题或受试者合法beplay苹果手机能用吗授权代表的法律有效知情同意。研究人员必须仅在为前瞻性主题提供足够机会讨论和考虑是否参与并最大程度地减少强制或不当影响的可能性的情况下才能寻求知情同意。

Informed consent must be conducted in a language understandable to the subject. The prospective subject must be provided with the information that a reasonable person would want to have in order to make an informed decision about whether to participate, and an opportunity to discuss that information. The informed consent may not include any exculpatory language through which the subject is made to waive or appear to waive any of the subject's legal rights, or releases or appears to release the investigator, the sponsor, the institution, or its agents from liability for negligence.

知情同意文件:Informed consent must begin with a concise and focused presentation of the key information that is most likely to assist a prospective subject or legally authorized representative in understanding the reasons why one might or might not want to participate in the research. This part of the informed consent must be organized and presented in a way that facilitates comprehension. Informed consent as a whole must present information in sufficient detail relating to the research, and must be organized and presented in a way that does not merely provide lists of isolated facts, but rather facilitates the prospective subject's or legally authorized representative's understanding of the reasons why one might or might not want to participate.

同意文件应采用第二人称样式,因此同意文件传达了与所提供的信息的对话,并且可以选择由主题做出,而不是使用第一人称风格的对象的同意。同意文件应在6中th到8thgrade reading level. Technical and scientific terms should be adequately explained using common or lay language.

知情同意的基本要素:In seeking informed consent the following information shall be provided to each subject:

  1. A statement that the study involves research, an explanation of the purposes of the research and the expected duration of the subject's participation, a description of the procedures to be followed, and identification of any procedures that are experimental;
  2. A description of any reasonably foreseeable risks or discomforts to the subject;
  3. 描述对主题或其他可能从研究中可以合理地期望的好处的描述;beplay苹果手机能用吗

  7. An explanation of whom to contact for answers to pertinent questions about the research and research subjects' rights, and whom to contact in the event of a research-related injury to the subject;
  8. 一份关于参与是自愿的声明,拒绝参加的声明将不涉及对受试者本来有权的受试者有权的罚款或损失,并且受试者可能会随时停止参与,而无需罚款或损失受试者应有的权利;和
  9. One of the following statements about any research that involves the collection of identifiable private information or identifiable biospecimens:
    1. 一份声明,可以从可识别的私人信息或可识别的生物测量中删除标识符,并且在删除此类信息后,可以将信息或生物测量用于未来的研究或将未来研究的其他研究者分发给未来的研究者,而未经该主题或该主题的其他知情同意beplay苹果手机能用吗法律授权的代表,如果这可能是可能的;或者
    2. A statement that the subject's information or biospecimens collected as part of the research, even if identifiers are removed, will not be used or distributed for future research studies.

Additional elements of informed consent:适当的情况下,应向每个主题或合法授权代表提供以下信息:

放弃筛查,招募或确定资格 -An IRB may approve a recruitment plan in which an investigator will obtain information or biospecimens for the purpose of screening, recruiting, or determining the eligibility of prospective subjects without the informed consent of the prospective subject or the subject's legally authorized representative, if either of the following conditions are met:

  1. The investigator will obtain information through oral or written communication with the prospective subject or legally authorized representative, or
  2. The investigator will obtain identifiable private information or identifiable biospecimens by accessing records or stored identifiable biospecimens.

如果放弃了知情同意的文档要求,CPHS可能要求调查员向参与者提供有关研究或使用口头脚本的信息信。beplay苹果手机能用吗信息信或口头脚本必须提交给CPHS进行审查和批准。

CPHS Review of Informed Consent -CPHS will ensure that the information in the protocol matches the information in the informed consent document regarding the purpose, risks, and benefits of the research. When the research proposal is approved, CPHS stamps the approval date on all approved informed consent documents and stipulates that copies of these dated documents must be used in obtaining consent.

Monitoring of Consent Process -CPHS may require monitoring of the informed consent process under certain circumstances, such as enrollment of vulnerable subjects or subjects in stressful situations, such as labor and delivery or the intensive care unit. In the event such monitoring is required, the research intermediary will be involved. The research intermediary serves as an additional advocate dedicated to ensuring that subjects’ rights are protected during their participation in research. The intermediary evaluates the subject for understanding of the research prior to the onset of research procedures. The research intermediary notes in the patient/subject file conclusions regarding the comprehension of the subject and reports to the investigator whether research procedures may begin. The Intermediary also reports to CPHS in the event of a difference of opinion with the investigator.

发布同意文件:对于由联邦部门或机构进行或支持的每项临床试验,一份由IRB批准的知情同意书必须由获奖者或联邦部门或代理机构组成,在公开可用的联邦网站上进行审判,将是建立为此类知情同意书的存储库。如果联邦部门或支持临床试验的联邦部门或机构确定不应在联邦网站上公开提供某些信息(e.g.confidential commercial information), such Federal department or agency may permit or require redactions to the information posted. The informed consent form must be posted on the Federal website after the clinical trial is closed to recruitment, and no later than 60 days after the last study visit by any subject, as required by the protocol.
