Updated Clinical Trials Consent Template

The Emory Biomedical, Grady, Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, and Saint Joseph’s Hospital of Atlanta Consent/HIPAA templates have been updated. The new version date for all documents is 4-15-2016.

Changes to the template include:

  • A clarification to the guidance comments regarding medical records,
  • Additional language for Cost Option 1 regarding what subjects may be liable for covering, and
  • A small typo fix to the ClinicalTrials.gov statement.

In addition to these changes, all study teams are reminded to distinguish between research versus non-research procedures listed in the consent form.
