What is an IRB? - Answer✔Institutional Review Board
An IRB consists of a group of scholars from various departments who are mandated to review
proposals to ensure that they comply with ethical guidelines and write a summary of proposed
risks to subjects.
What is the purpose of an IRB? - Answer✔They must approve each proposal and certify that the
research will be conducted in accordance with the law and protect subjects from harm.
What document outlines the federal governments ethical guidelines? - Answer✔Belmont
Report.
What are the three levels of IRB review?
What are the conditions for each level of review? - Answer✔Exempt Review- Only minimal risk
research may be classified as exempt. The federal regulations identify six categories of research
that are exempt from IRB review. The IRB does not formally "approve" research that is
classified as exempt, rather it makes a determination that the research meets the criteria for at
least one of the six exempt categories. After the exempt determination, the IRB office will then
evaluate the protocol for general confidentiality and data security issues, informed consent
format, experimental design methodology, and ethical considerations.
Expedited Review- Expedited review is a process by which certain types of minimal risk research
may be reviewed and approved without convening a meeting of the full IRB. Expedited reviews
are not "quicker" or conducted with less rigor, but fewer reviewers are required for approval.
There are several types of research that may receive expedited review. Typical expedited
reviews are completed in 2-3 weeks from the time the application is first received. However,
applications that require heavy revision may take longer to be approved by an expedited
review.
