Consent Forms
Requirements
Current version of Institutional Review Board IRB approved consent form and the dated and stamped IRB approval letter.
Tips / Additional Information
If consent forms are maintained electronically or filed in the IRB section of the Binder, include a signed and dated note-to-file indicating the location.
Once the IRB approves a new version of the consent form, the previous version expires. Previously approved versions can be kept in the IRB section of the Regulatory Binder.
The IRB website provides guidance on the following:
- Staff Requirements for Obtaining Informed Consent
