Abstract:
Clinical trial regulations for new drugs in India released a gazette notification for obtaining audiovisual (AV) consent from all trial participants in November 2013. The reports of AV recordings of the studies from October 2013 to February 2017 submitted to the institutional ethics committee were analyzed in view of the Indian regulations on AV consenting. The reports of AV recording were checked: number of AV consents for each project, adequacy of AV recording, number of persons in the video, informed consent document elements (ICD) covered as per Schedule Y, confirmation of understanding by the participant, the time taken to complete the procedure, maintenance of confidentiality, and whether reconsent was taken. Seven studies of AV consent were monitored. Eighty-five (85) AV-consented and filled checklists were evaluated. The AV recording was not clear in 31/85, ICD elements were missing in 49/85 consents, time taken to complete the procedure was 20.03 ± 10.83 with the number of pages being 14.24 ± 7.52 (R= 0.29 p<0.041). In 19/85 consents, privacy was not maintained and on 22 occasions, reconsent were taken. There were deficits found in the AV consent process.
