    Does anyone have any good (or even not so good) templates for non-compliance reports and/or for adverse event reports to share?

    Hi Angela,
    We are a Social/Behavioral IRB so our incident report template will be different than a clinical/medical IRB. Glad to share if you are still interested. Just message me your email address.

    Since this happens so infrequently and because we are very small, we actually have the individual report directly to the Chair when an event happens and the person would then do an interview with the Chair to get the details on the situation.

    Hi Angela,

    This is a really good question to see what others are doing at their institutions.

    This happens so infrequently at Lamar (knock on wood) and we are mostly a social/behavioral university, that we actually have the individual report the event to our office and we contact the IRB Chair for review of the event and ultimate decision.

    Hi Angela,

    Like the others, we are mainly an SBER IRB and do not receive incident reports often. Below, is our template for the Incident Report. Our process is: (1) The analyst receives the incident report and routes it to the IRB Chair and Research Compliance Officer; (2) The IRB Chair and Research Compliance Officer review the incident report and corresponding corrective action plan; (3) The Research Compliance Officer notifies the Institutional Official; (4) If the corrective action plan is acceptable, we send correspondence to the PI "noting" the submission (signed by the IRB Chair, Research Compliance Officer, and Institutional Official).

    Template:

    Event Report
    Type of Event
    Check all that apply.

    --
    Provide a description of the events or incidents indicated above.
    Do not include information that might identify a subject.

    Text box provided

    --
    Corrective Action Plan
    Describe how you plan to address the events or incidents reported. This should include any potential changes to the study protocol and any plans to or not to re-consent subjects.

    Note: The IRB may require additional corrective actions.


    Text box provided

    --
    Any changes to the study must be submitted and approved prior to implementation. Complete and submit a Modification Request application.

    Thank you all for sharing. It is really great to see what other institutions are doing.  I am working on re-formatting and re-writing our policies, procedures, SOPs, worksheets, checklists, and Cayuse forms, so I will very likely be reaching out on other topics as well. I appreciate Cayuse giving us this platform to share.  It feels a lot more cozy than posting on PRIMR's site. Such a great resource.
