Comprehension of the Information Provided: The principal investigator (or approved designee) is responsible for assuring that prospective subjects or their legally authorized representatives have sufficient understanding of the research to make an informed decision about participation. The principal investigator (or approved designee) must ensure that prospective subjects understand that participation is entirely voluntary and that refusing to participate in this study will not preclude alternative medical treatment. It is important that the prospective subjects or their legally authorized representatives understand the purpose of the research, the nature and duration of the procedures, any risks and discomforts involved, the possible benefits to the subjects and others, and their right to withdraw consent at any time without penalty. Willingness to sign the consent form is not an adequate demonstration of their understanding.

FORMCHECKBOX NO FORMCHECKBOX YES Provide an explanation. FORMTEXT ?????(b) Are there any additional costs to the subject that may result from participation in the protocol? FORMCHECKBOX NO FORMCHECKBOX YES Provide an explanation. FORMTEXT ?????(c) Will the institution or the study sponsor compensate the investigator or the investigator’s practice for his/her/its involvement in the study? A Research Conflict of Interest Disclosure Form must be completed and submitted for each investigator. FORMCHECKBOX NO FORMCHECKBOX YES Is the compensation consistent with the following statement from the AMA Code of Ethics? “Any financial compensation received from trial sponsors must be commensurate with the efforts of the physician performing the research.
