Save hours on minutes: How to hone the process
No short-cuts, but efficiency possible
There might not be any shortcuts to creating the most accurate and thorough IRB reviews and meeting minutes, but it is possible to make these consistent and accurate with a well-thought-out process.
When the Office of Protocol Research at the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, TX, worked with IRB chairs to develop protocol review guidelines five years ago, greater consistency was a chief goal.
"We have five IRBs, and we needed consistency in the way the information was being presented," says Marion Olson, CIP, supervisor of human subject research regulations in the Office of Protocol Research.
The aim was to help IRB members remember to provide all of the essential information in their protocol presentations and to help IRB coordinators take more accurate and thorough meeting minutes.
The IRB approval process includes having a scientific editor at each IRB meeting. The scientific editor is part of the research regulations editorial staff, says Martha Matza, MS, CIP, CIM, director of operations of protocol research in the Office of Protocol Research.
