Making the Move to a Learning System of Research Ethics
Not much of what is done to protect and engage participants in clinical research is firmly grounded in evidence. Furthermore, it can be difficult to conduct research to generate that evidence-especially if doing so challenges norms or involves not doing things researchers often do. Cultivating a learning system of research ethics is important and should not be so hard. This piece describes some examples of attempts to generate evidence regarding …
Research involving the recently deceased
Research involving recently deceased humans that are physiologically maintained following declaration of death by neurologic criteria—or ‘research involving the recently deceased’—can fill a translational research gap while reducing harm to animals and living human subjects. It also creates new challenges for honouring the donor’s legacy, respecting the rights of donor loved ones, resource allocation and public health. As this research model gain…
Toward Meeting the Obligation of Respect for Persons in Pragmatic Clinical Trials
Research ethics oversight systems have traditionally emphasized the informed consent process as the primary means by which to demonstrate respect for prospective subjects. Yet how researchers can best fulfill the ethical obligations of respect for persons in pragmatic clinical trials (PCTs)—particularly those that may alter or waive informed consent—remains unknown. We propose eight dimensions of demonstrating respect in PCTs: (1) engaging patien…
Justifying Clinical Nudges
The shift away from paternalistic decision‐making and toward patient‐centered, shared decision‐making has stemmed from the recognition that in order to practice medicine ethically, health care professionals must take seriously the values and preferences of their patients. At the same time, there is growing recognition that minor and seemingly irrelevant features of how choices are presented can substantially influence the decisions people make. B…
Enrollment of Economically Disadvantaged Participants in Clinical Research
Despite a tendency to react otherwise, there is no obvious reason to believe that economically disadvantaged people ought not to be exposed to the same levels of research risk as the rest of the population
Patients' perceptions of research in emergency settings
Ethical Goals of Community Consultation in Research
In response to the traditional emphasis on the rights, interests, and well-being of individual research subjects, there has been growing attention focused on the importance of involving communities in research development and approval. Community consultation is a particularly common method of involving communities. However, the fundamental ethical goals of community consultation have not been delineated, which makes it difficult for investigators…
What's the Price of a Research Subject? Approaches to Payment for Research Participation
Successful clinical research depends on the ability to recruit research subjects. Tension between the need to recruit subjects and the obligation to offer them certain types of protection has made recruitment a persistent ethical challenge. One important and difficult issue involves whom investigators should enroll in research studies. A different but equally crucial issue concerns the types of inducement investigators should use to recruit subje…
