Discussion Ethics Of Ethics Committees
Competence of ethics committees in patient protection in clinical research
Abstract:
Research Ethics Committees (RECs) are responsible for the protection of patients’ rights and wellbeing. In this paper, we describe the findings of a survey of ethics committee members in a south Indian state. 29 members of 11 RECs responded to a questionnaire of 56 questions on their knowledge of and attitudes towards ethics review and the practices of the RECs to which they belonged.
