dc.description.abstract | The autonomy of patients participating in research means that a proper informed consent process must take place. This means that information must be given according to a reasonable person standard implying what legally and ethical a reasonable person participating in the research would want to know. The research must assure that the patient has understood all the information given and that a voluntary choice has been made. This means that no form of coercion must take place and that information must not be manipulated in such a way as to influence the participant. No undue pressure or persuasion must either occur. Particular attention must be paid to vulnerable groups and participants must be competent and have the capacity to consent. Where necessary the use of a proxy to act on behalf of a patient who does not have legal capacity must be used and the best interests of the patient must be asserted. In research consent must always include a signed consent form which again is duly explained and authorized by the research ethics committee. | en_GB |
