Pregnant Women As Research Participants: Why Is Additional Protection Required?, Kyoko Wada
Pregnant Women As Research Participants: Why Is Additional Protection Required?, Kyoko Wada
Research Day (Arts & Humanities, FIMS, and Education)
Today, blanket exclusion of pregnant women from research participation is not endorsed; however, a tendency still remains to exclude pregnant women from participating in research. This exclusion results in insufficient data to guide clinical practice for pregnant women, and hence adds risks to pregnant women and fetuses (Lyerly et al. 2007, 2008, 2009; Baylis 2010; Goldkind et al. 2010).

Researchers’ Views On Ethical Challenges In Healthcare Cluster-Randomized Trials, Andrew Mcrae

• Cluster-randomized trials (CRTs) commonly used in education, public health, healthcare and social sciences
• Groups of individuals randomly assigned to receive one of 2 (or more) comparator interventions
• Effect of interventions evaluated after collecting data from individual group members

• Little specific guidance for ethical conduct of CRTs
• Lack of guidance may lead to variability in ethics reviews between jurisdictions and over time
