Consent
Process
The consent
process
begins when
you begin
recruitment
of subjects.
01
Informed
consent does
not end with
the signing of
a document.
02
Legally Acceptable Representative
• An individual or juridical or other body
authorized under applicable law to consent, on
behalf of a prospective subject, to the subjects
participation in the clinical trial.
Impartial Witness
• A person, who is independent of a trial, who
cannot be unfairly influenced by people
involved, with the trial, who attends the
informed consent process if the subject or
subjects legally acceptable representative cannot
read and who reads the informed consent form
and any other written information supplied to
the subject.
• The consent process is an on-going,
dynamic “conversation” with your subject
to ensure:
the person understands what’s being
asked of him/her;
that the person has an opportunity to ask
questions; and
that the person truly wants to continue in
the study.
Documentation of Informed Consent
• The consent form is one of the most
important ways to document your respect for
persons.
