Ethical and Regulatory Foundations

What requires IRB review? Designed, Systematic Investigation Contribute to GENERALIZABLE knowledge

What requires IRB review? Human Subject A living individual about whom an investigator obtains: (1) data through intervention or interaction with the individual OR (2) private, identifiable information

IRB Criteria for Approval Risks are reasonable relative to benefits Risks to subjects are minimized Privacy & confidentiality protected Adequate safety monitoring plan Written informed consent obtained Consent process provides all required info Subject selection is equitable Additional safeguards for protected & vulnerable populations

Not always easy…

Tip #1 Records and specimens can be “human subjects”, even if you are not obtaining them directly from the individuals.

Tip #2 Consent is not just a document…. It is a process.

Loss of Confidentiality Tip #3 “Risk” does not only mean physical risk Psychological Legal Loss of Confidentiality Reputation

Tip #4 Vulnerable Populations = additional requirements Prisoners Children Pregnant Women

Tip #5 Multiple IRB Involvement Each institution involved in the research must obtain IRB approval, from Its own IRB A commercial IRB The IRB of one of the other institutions

Tip #6 IRB review takes time – plan ahead
