Area of Science:

  • Health Care Research Ethics
  • Traditional Indian Medicine Research

Background:

  • Ethics committees (EC) are vital for overseeing ethical research conduct globally.
  • Traditional Indian healthcare research, including Ayurveda, Siddha, and Unani (ASU) systems, requires ethical oversight due to human and animal participation.
  • ASU institutions' ECs face challenges in promoting research ethics and integrity, with suboptimal performance linked to structural issues and poor understanding of their roles.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the current state of ethics committees (EC) in Ayurveda, Siddha, and Unani (ASU) research.
  • To identify factors contributing to suboptimal EC performance in ASU institutions.
  • To propose strategies for enhancing ethical research conduct in ASU systems.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of existing ethical guidelines and EC structures in ASU research.
  • Assessment of EC member understanding of their roles and responsibilities.
  • Review of the Central Council of Indian Medicine's (CCIM) recent initiatives regarding EC functioning.

Main Results:

  • Anomalies exist in the structure and function of ECs within ASU institutions.
  • Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for ethical considerations in research are not consistently observed.
  • A poor understanding of EC roles by members contributes to suboptimal performance and hinders the development of a responsible research culture.

Conclusions:

  • Empowering ASU ECs with knowledge of global research ethics and integrity standards is more appropriate than creating separate ASU-specific guidelines.
  • ASU ECs need support to evolve into accountable stakeholders capable of meeting global research benchmarks.
  • Enhancing ECs' capacity will optimize their role in fostering a responsible research culture within ASU institutions.
