Welcome to the Clinical Research Department at Central United Hospital. We are proud to house a full-fledged clinical research unit committed to advancing medical knowledge and improving patient care through ethically sound and scientifically rigorous research. A cornerstone of our research operations is our Institutional Ethics Committee (IEC), which plays a vital role in ensuring the rights, safety, and well-being of all research participants.

Our Commitment to Ethical Research

At Central United Hospital, we firmly believe that medical progress must always be guided by the highest ethical standards. Our IEC is an independent body established to review and approve all research protocols involving human participants. The committee's primary responsibility is to safeguard the dignity, rights, and welfare of individuals who volunteer to participate in our clinical studies.

Functions of the Institutional Ethics Committee

The IEC at Central United Hospital diligently performs several critical functions:

  • Protocol Review: The committee meticulously reviews all proposed research protocols before they can commence. This review includes assessing the scientific design, potential risks and benefits to participants, the adequacy of participant information, and the procedures for obtaining informed consent.
  • Ethical Considerations: The IEC ensures that all research activities adhere to national and international ethical guidelines, including the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) guidelines, Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines, and other relevant regulatory requirements.
  • Participant Safety: A paramount concern of the IEC is the safety of research participants. The committee evaluates the measures in place to minimize risks and monitor participant well-being throughout the study.
  • Informed Consent: The IEC scrutinizes the informed consent process to ensure that potential participants are provided with comprehensive information about the study in a language they understand, allowing them to make a voluntary and informed decision about participation.
  • Ongoing Monitoring: Beyond the initial approval, the IEC also monitors ongoing studies, reviewing progress reports, and any amendments to the protocol to ensure continued ethical compliance and participant safety.
  • Adverse Event Review: The committee reviews any serious adverse events that may occur during a clinical trial to determine the cause and ensure appropriate action is taken to protect participants.
  • Conflict of Interest: The IEC ensures that any potential conflicts of interest among researchers are identified and appropriately managed to maintain the integrity and objectivity of the research.
Importance of the IEC

The Institutional Ethics Committee is an indispensable component of our clinical research department. It provides:

  • Protection of Participants: Ensuring the safety, rights, and well-being of individuals participating in clinical trials.
  • Ethical Integrity: Upholding the ethical principles that guide responsible research conduct.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Ensuring adherence to all applicable national and international regulations and guidelines.
  • Public Trust: Fostering confidence in the research conducted at Central United Hospital.
  • Scientific Validity: Contributing to the ethical and scientifically sound design and conduct of clinical trials.
