Abstract:
Although research is an activity commonly undertaken in Canadian hospitals, no mandatory or even standardized mechanism exists for the ethical clearance of hospital-based research in Canada. This paper describes the current procedures used by Canadian hospitals to evaluate research protocols. A research classification system is proposed by SCO Hospital, Saint-Vincent Pavilion. The proposed classification system offers criteria for screening hospital-based research for risk to human subjects and detecting potential ethical problems in a proposed research study. SCO Hospital, Saint-Vincent Pavilion, has also found the proposed research classification system helpful in identifying research activities that have an impact on hospital resources.
